10 th SOW Drivers and Aims Strategic Aims “What will be done” Beneficiary-Centered Care o Case Review o Patient and Family Engagement Improve Individual Patient Care o Patient Safety–Reduce HACs by 40% o Improving Quality through Value- Based Purchasing Integrate Care for Populations o Care Transitions that Reduce Readmissions by 20% o Using Data to Drive Dramatic Improvement in Communities Improve Health for Populations and Communities o Prevention through screening and immunizations o Prevention in Cardiovascular Disease Other Rapid-Cycle Projects Drivers of Change “How the work will be done” Learning and Action Networks Breakthrough Collaboratives Patient Engagement and Stories Campaigns Technical Assistance Learning Laboratories Focused Technical Assistance On-site Visits Intensive Consultation Distribution of Resources Care Reinvention through Innovation Spread Identification of Stakeholders Spread Strategies Multi-media management
9
10 th SOW Tasks: Beneficiary and Family Centered Care What is Case Review? Comprehensive review of information from multiple data sources to analyze the care and services provided to the beneficiary during an episode of care. What are the types of case reviews? Quality of Care Reviews beneficiary initiated quality of care concerns, other persons or entities, referral of cases for quality of care review Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act (EMTALA) Reviews Potential Anti-Dumping Cases Reviews of Beneficiary Requests of Provider Discharges/Service Terminations and Denials of Hospital Admissions Higher-Weighted Diagnosis-Related Group (HWDRG) Reviews
10
10 th SOW Tasks: Beneficiary and Family Centered Care Patient and Family Engagement Campaign As directed by CMS, the QIO must develop and implement a Patient and Family Engagement Campaign that supports the DHHS and CMS goals of person-centeredness and family engagement and promotes statewide quality improvement that aligns with the National Quality Strategy. Who is the target audience? All Medicare beneficiaries and their representatives, Non-Medicare beneficiaries for Emergency Medical Treatment and Active labor Act (EMTALA)
11
10 th SOW Tasks: Integrating Care for Population & Communities Improving Care Transitions Leading to Reduction of Readmissions o Improve the quality of care for Medicare beneficiaries as they transition between providers o Reduce readmissions following hospitalization by 20% o Yield sustainable and replicable strategies to achieve high-value health care Using Data to Drive Dramatic Improvement in Communities o Identify communities with opportunities for improvement o Ensure communitywide adoption of improved practices. o Conduct rapid-cycle community-based improvement initiatives and learning activities o Develop a statewide community health care indicator map o Scan horizon for indices of patient care, population health, and per capita cost
12
10 th SOW Tasks: Improving Health for Populations & Communities Promotion of Immunizations and Screenings o Improving 4 Preventive Services: o Flu immunizations o Pneumococcal vaccinations o Colorectal screening o Breast cancer screening Cardiovascular Health Campaign o Improving 4 Cardiac Health Measures: o Low-dose aspirin therapy o Blood pressure control o Cholesterol control o Tobacco cessation
13
10 th SOW Tasks: Improving Individual Patient Care Reducing Adverse Drug Events o Implement PDSA cycles for improvement o Develop and implement safe medication systems o Develop patient education tools o Tracking compliance of beneficiaries o Data managing o Create a registry to track and monitor beneficiaries health status is a part of managing the data o Track all adverse and preventable adverse drug events that are ongoing among community teams
14
10 th SOW Tasks: Improving Individual Patient Care Quality Data Reporting: Promote and support hospital Inpatient Quality Reporting (IQR) program participation and Hospital Outpatient Quality Reporting (OQR) program participation from both CAH and PPS facilities. What’s been added? o Outpatient Data Collection and Reporting o Support of CAH Data Collection and Reporting for Inpatient and Outpatient o Statewide Quality Improvement: o Focuses on clinical topics included in CMS Hospital Quality Reporting programs and patient experience of care o Statewide assistance to hospital inpatient and outpatient depts. o Inpatient - Includes quality of care processes (SCIP, AMI, HF, and PN) and patient experience of care (inpatient) o Outpatient – Includes quality of care processes (ED–AMI/Chest Pain, SCIP) o Evaluates attainment and improvement o More clinical topic areas in inpatient setting
15
Value-Based Purchasing (VBP) Per the provisions in the Hospital Value-Based Purchasing Program (VBP) final rule, payments will be tied to performance on quality measures, related to common and high ‐ cost conditions, such as cardiac, surgical and pneumonia care. Next steps… By March 23, 2012 – Secretary must establish 2 separate, three-year VBP demonstration programs: one for CAHs, and one for small hospitals with insufficient numbers of measures and/or cases; these demonstrations programs are currently underway; the programs are to culminate in a report and recommendations for permanent VBP programs. By October 1, 2012 (FY13) – hospitals will be paid based on the quality performance standards
16
Why Should You Report? Getting on board now with Inpatient and/or Outpatient Reporting (IQR/OQR) will help you and your team: Improve patient care across broad populations, both inpatient and outpatient Implement/sustain an informed quality improvement program Improve hospital services, administration and operations Allow for your hospital’s comparison to benchmarks that will be released in August of this year What gets measured gets managed Allow for your hospital to improve its’ performance now by putting systems in place early, so your hospital’s payment will not be negatively affected. This will help to engage your staff in important quality improvement initiatives. Please Note: If your facility is already on board with Inpatient reporting, the transition to Outpatient reporting is very minimal. The abstraction time is much, much less and the Outpatient measures are more beneficial to a CAH setting.
