Key Interventions to Help Individuals with Serious Mental Illness
Train case managers and peer specialists as wellness coaches/health navigators Support of a nurse focused on PH in MH settings Create a high-risk disease registry with key indicators of PH and BH needs Develop self-management toolkits to support common challenges such as obesity, smoking, exercise, and medication adherence Both strategies promote a culture of wellness and utilize case managers and certified peer specialists as health navigators Wellness coaching supports the development of a behavioral health home model and a foundation for a culture of wellness and recovery. Training program developed by national wellness expert, Dr. Peggy Swarbrick, a consultant to the project Wellness coaching is a new role that can help people in their pursuit of individually-chosen health and wellness goals. Activating consumers to be more informed and effective managers of their health and health care lies at the heart of patient-centered care

Study & Interventions Comparative effectiveness study of two behavioral health home model approaches to improve the health status of individuals with serious mental illness, increase patient activation in care, and improve engagement with primary/specialty physical health care. Both approaches train BH staff as wellness coaches and utilize high risk registries. Provider-Supported Care Wellness nurses focused on PH & wellness (5 providers) Self-Directed Care Self-management toolkits & resources (6 providers) Enhancing patient & BH provider capacity to address PH & wellness Both strategies promote a culture of wellness and utilize case managers and certified peer specialists as health navigators Wellness coaching supports the development of a behavioral health home model and a foundation for a culture of wellness and recovery. Training program developed by national wellness expert, Dr. Peggy Swarbrick, a consultant to the project Wellness coaching is a new role that can help people in their pursuit of individually-chosen health and wellness goals.

Study Data & Data Sources
PCORI Optimal Health Participants HealthChoices Eligibility Data (Medicaid eligibility) Self-Report Measures (Patient activation,** health status,** hope, quality of life, functional status, satisfaction with care, social support) Learning Collaborative (LC) Data (Implementation information) Qualitative Data (Service user & provider interviews) **Primary outcome Administrative Data (Demographic info) Behavioral Health Claims (BH diagnosis, utilization) Physical Health Claims (Engagement in primary/specialty care**) Primary Data Sources Secondary Data Sources Pharmacy Claims (Medication utilization) 1229 participants Mean age = 42.7 37.4% Male 62.6% Female Primary Outcomes Health status Activation in care Engagement in primary / specialty care Secondary / Exploratory Outcomes Mental health symptoms, hope, quality of life, medication use, functional status, emergent care, lab monitoring, individual and family satisfaction with care Covariates Engagement in interventions, social support, severity of mental illness, medical stability, patient demographic and clinical characteristics
14
Findings: Executive Summary
Learning Collaborative/Implementation Findings: Performance on all process/outcome goals improved over time Provider-supported arm reported higher degree of achievement on all process goals after one year of implementation Qualitative Interview Findings: Little difference in findings between intervention arms Overall positive experiences participating in (service users) or implementing (providers) interventions
15
Findings: Executive Summary
Quantitative Findings: Intervention type (Provider-Supported vs. Self-Directed) has a differential impact on some patient-centered outcomes (treatment X time interaction effect) Both interventions positively impact several of our outcomes over time (change over time) Financial Findings: Indicative of long-term cost reductions in Provider-Supported (Wellness Nurse) sites, with some evidence of long-term decreases in Self-Directed (Self-management Navigator) sites. Suggestive of increased short-term PH use at both sites, but more ambulatory and lower inpatient.

Post-Trial Comparison Group: Results
Total Year 2: PMPM 15% lower Years 1 and 2: PH use (40-50%) higher Year 2: BH PMPM 20-30% lower IP Year 2: Use 30-40% lower and cost 20-25% lower Year 2: PH Use 30-35% lower Rx Years 1 and 2: Use 25-30% lower; Year 1: PMPM 15-20% higher TCM Year 2: PMPM 17% lower ER Matched cohort not comparable for ER analysis Nurse + Nav vs. Statistically significant (<0.05) Suggestive; not quite statistically significant (<0.2) Comparison PH Use: Change from Y0-Y1 is significantly higher than Y0-Y1 change in Comparison group; Change from Y1-Y2 is actually significantly lower than in Comparison group but of a smaller magnitude than the Y0-Y1 difference RX: Showing decrease in RX penetration with a short-term spike in costs followed by suggestion of long-term cost decreases TCM: Higher use in baseline with slight increase in Y0-Y1 change relative to Comparison but large significant decreases in use and cost from Y1-Y2 relative to Comparison group IP: Results should be interpreted with some caution due to geographic differences but suggestive of long-term decrease in PH IP use
