9. DRG Workshop Belgrade, 18-22.November 2013. 9 Fine tuning of the system: addressing negative effects Upcoding (creep), “paper” (readmitted) cases – Monitor and control provider reporting of cases – Continuous cost weight revision Efficiency and quality – Addressing undertreatment (quality/effectiveness): creating new groups *DRGs for sophisticated care, but only selected providers – Quicker-sicker problem: readmission before maximum day limit does not pay extra

Victorian Rehabilitation Designated Rehabilitation Units – –Agencies are designated for Rehabilitation Units –10 beds or more and must meet designation criteria –Paid by per diem grants (or for CRAFT agencies a mix of episode & per diem since 1999) Non-Designated – –Payment through Casemix AN-DRG system by WIES

27. DRG Workshop Belgrade, 18-22.November 2013. CRAFT Development Objective to develop a casemix classification system for Rehabilitation patients which could be effectively adopted as a casemix funding method Important therefore that the model meet the following criteria: – –Clinical similarity – –Resource homogeneity – –Administrative ease – –Suitable for funding agencies

28. DRG Workshop Belgrade, 18-22.November 2013. Functional Status Issues Functional status is not used in other DRGs, but Functional status is basic to rehabilitation practice, assessment and theory – – so important to consider in a classification Main issues with regard to functional status: – Choice of standard measure instrument Barthel FIM Barthel was chosen originally by Clinical Panel of advisers for collection in Victoria. It can also be mapped to FIM

31. DRG Workshop Belgrade, 18-22.November 2013. Options for Funding Episode Costs -Payment for an episode of care – Advantages: Promotes and rewards efficiencies and standard practice across agencies Provides a clearer benchmark for units for planning, funding and the evaluation of services– – Disadvantages: Variability in LOS (“Quicker And Sicker” risk) Per Diem Costs -Payment based on a day rate– – Advantages:– More closely approximates existing care May better reflect service differences– – Disadvantages:– Does not encourage efficiencies or standard practice across agencies Consultations with field –episode preference

32. DRG Workshop Belgrade, 18-22.November 2013. NON-ADMITTED DIFFERENCES Lower? cost structures (usually, not necessarily): – Can be a substitute program for admitted or – A separate different care model (eg voc placement). – Community can be an essential part of the rehab. Goals can be staged – series of sub programs. Function dependent goals and decision points. Combinations of services can change depending on progress. – Dx can change – certainly needs can.

33. DRG Workshop Belgrade, 18-22.November 2013. PAYING FOR NON-ADMITTED REHAB Minimum requirements Oz Criterion 1 Rehabilitation care provided by a specialist rehabilitation team on an admitted or non-admitted basis in a specialist rehabilitation unit (a separate physical space.) – and Criterion 2 Rehabilitation care provided by a multi-disciplinary team which is under the Clinical management of a consultant in rehabilitation medicine or equivalent. – and Criterion 3 Rehabilitation care provided for a person with an impairment and a disability and for whom there is reasonable expectation of functional gain. – and Criterion 4 Rehabilitation care for whom the primary treatment goal is improvement in functional status. – and Criterion 5 Rehabilitation care which is evidenced in the medical record by: – an individualised and documented initial and periodic assessment of functional ability by use of a recognised functional assessment measure. – an individualised multidisciplinary rehabilitation plan which includes negotiated rehabilitation goals and indicative time frames.

35. DRG Workshop Belgrade, 18-22.November 2013. Mental Health Services as a Part of Health Care? (1/2) We spend between 7 and 13% of recurrent health expenditure on mental health as the primary condition. Compared with cardiovascular diseases (10.9%), nervous system disorders (9.9%), musculoskeletal diseases (9.2%), injuries (8.0%), respiratory diseases (7.5%) and oral health (6.9%). AIHW (Mental health services in Australia 2004–05). The big growth factor in the last decade has been increased expenditure on drugs for depression. DEPRESSION has highest burden of disease disease where Quality of Life is factored in (rather than mortality).

36. DRG Workshop Belgrade, 18-22.November 2013. Mental Health Services as a Part of Health Care? (2/2) Acute hospitals – MH alone 3% of separations, 9.7% of bed-days – MH+D&A 3.7% of separations, 10.7% of bed-days. Special inpatient facilites – Mental health is one of the few clinical specialties where a proportion is done in specialised inpatient and outpatient treatment services. – These are operated both on a voluntary and compulsory basis – and they may involve legal incarceration. – $534AUD million pa in Australia Private sector hospitals / clinics – Mental health is one of their biggest products – Both as direct care and as a comorbidity with other conditions – liaison psychiatry – major issue.

37. DRG Workshop Belgrade, 18-22.November 2013. What is the scope of mental health services? (1/2) Drug and alcohol services are grouped together as the same service statistics? Community support services – even such things as housing assistance can be included in mental health care. Rehabilitation and social independence programs Cognitive diseases often associated with aging – Alzheimers, Senile dementias etc – may be here or in Aged care. – “Psychogeriatric” can be siloed as a completely different care stream.

38. DRG Workshop Belgrade, 18-22.November 2013. What is the scope of mental health services? (2/2) “Developmental” disorders – Autistic disorders – Severe learning disorders – Hyperactivity What about mental health as a CC of other conditions? – Mental health diagnoses and their related treatments are one of the most common comorbidity factors in the treatment of physical conditions. – Generally these costs are not taken into account in the estimates on mental health expenditure. – Some patients can be treated for mental health problems when actually not eligible from their health insurance status – by being admitted for a less urgent physical condition.

39. DRG Workshop Belgrade, 18-22.November 2013. Casemix classifications of mental health? (1/2) DRG type Classifications – AR-DRGs – CMS DRGs – HRGs – etc Ambulatory and community classifications – APCs?? – DBGs Care path based classifications – Care packages – Care programs – DSM 4 Procedure axis

The World Health Organization (WHO) Composite International Diagnostic Interview (CIDI) The CIDI is a comprehensive, fully-structured interview designed to be used by trained lay interviewers for the assessment of mental disorders according to the definitions and criteria of ICD-10 and DSM- IV. The CIDI allows the investigator to: - Measure the prevalence of mental disorders - Measure the severity of these disorders - Determine the burden of these disorders - Assess service use - Assess the use of medications in treating these disorders - Assess who is treated, http://www.hcp.med.harvard.edu/wmhcidi/

44. DRG Workshop Belgrade, 18-22.November 2013. Why do some insurers want to limit access to MH care? Differential eligibility restrictions – eg – Longer wait for coverage for mental health as a pre-existing condition. – Exclusion of mental health coverage.
