Healthcare Reform Is Not Payment Reform Date: September 23, 2010 Presented by: Griselle Chernys

Where the $2.3 trillion went

Healthcare Reform Only Answers Coverage Issues What is fraud? A white-collar crime that involves the filing of dishonest health care claims in order to turn a profit What is abuse? Reckless disregard or conduct that goes against and is inconsistent with acceptable business and/or medical practices resulting in greater reimbursement. Problems reform doesnt address The system is extensively eroded with Fraud Abuse and Excessive waste

Insurance companies are being viewed as the cause of all healthcare problems Inflation, premium increases, and unaffordability Hospital and Physician markups account for up to 3000% above the cost of delivery Providers say they must cost-shift the shortages of the government. $72 billion spent in 2008 government wide improper payment cost the US Treasury about 4% of the total outlays $60 billion lost to fraud yearly in the private insurance sector Finding Money for Healthcare Reform

Healthcare Reform Does Not Answer nor Address Costs

Capabilities OverviewJune 2009 Annual Premiums for Single and Family Coverage

Projections of Premiums Under Reform A study by PriceWaterhouseCooper (Dec, 2009) indicates health premiums will increase 110% under the healthcare reform(2011 to 2014). More out of pocket costs will be shifted to consumer as employers try to address effects of the more open benefit schemes required.

Capabilities OverviewJune 2009 Firms Report the Following as a Result of the Economic Downturn

What does reform propose? New Methods of reimbursement that take into account - Bundling of services and charges - Payment based on performance - Payment for outcomes & quality Moves away from fee-for-service Providers that share the risk and assume accountability across the continuum of patient care

Challenges to these methods … How are providers rated for quality? How are hospitals to be measured? What technology and mechanizms will be used to administer such reimbursement models? How will government sponsor plans pay?

Discount Dilemma - Its a Financial Issue not a Reform Issue Why do we keep seeing discounts disappear? PPO, Negotiations, you name it, its out there Is a discount really a discount? Whos checking for integrity? Interests of vendors are contrary to those of the insurance The providers open the gates and the providers close the gates of the discount, they will play the game … for a while In % or $36.4 billion went to uncompensated care based on cost* Regardless of reform consumers will pay more. This will result in more bad debt to the providers and cost shift to others *Nationally Uncompensated Care Based on Cost – AHA 2009 data.

What about the International and the Travel Industry? Providers will stick to the rules because they need the $$$ Providers are comparing vendor lists, sticking to timely payment and coverage issues Bad debt will increase thus creating a cost shift to unqualified payers. Continue seeing them disappear

Pending regulation – One Balance Billing Model Act will allow balance billing to patients and immediately reverse potential discounts at the point of service rather than at the back end (watch out for this one, it has teeth!) What about the International and the Travel Industry? New regulations are being interpreted and copied into state regulation in most states -Example: 2008 Rental Network Contract Arrangements now will not permit you to stack networks and shop around

New Models of Healthcare Delivery That address reductions by planning & coordinating care in other settings
