1 2007 National Healthcare Disparities Report (NHDR) Progress is being made, but many of the biggest gaps remain Released March 3, 2008

2 Health Care Quality Disparities in health care quality are staying the same or increasing Disparities in health care quality are staying the same or increasing n=number of core measures

3 Access to Health Care Disparities in access to care are staying the same or increasing Disparities in access to care are staying the same or increasing n=number of core measures

4 NHDR Findings Over 60% of disparities in quality of care have stayed the same or worsened for Blacks, Asians, and poor populations Over 60% of disparities in quality of care have stayed the same or worsened for Blacks, Asians, and poor populations Nearly 60% of disparities have stayed the same or worsened for Hispanics Nearly 60% of disparities have stayed the same or worsened for Hispanics For Blacks, Asians, Hispanics, and poor populations, disparities in about half the core measures of access to care are lessening For Blacks, Asians, Hispanics, and poor populations, disparities in about half the core measures of access to care are lessening

5 Core Measures That Showed Reduction in Disparities, 2000-2001 to 2004-2005 GroupMeasure Relative rate for earliest year in NHDR Relative rate for most recent year in NHDR Black compared with White Hemodialysis patients with adequate dialysis (urea reduction ratio 65% or greater) 1.291.08 New AIDS cases per 100,000 population age 13 and over 10.410.0 Children 19-35 months who received all recommended vaccines 1.311.14 Asian compared with White Persons who have a usual primary care provider 1.401.13 Children 19-35 months who received all recommended vaccines 1.211.12 Tuberculosis patients who completed a curative course of treatment within 12 months of initiation of treatment 1.09.97 AI/AN compared with White High-risk short-stay nursing home residents who developed pressure sores 1.151.06 High-risk long-stay nursing home residents who developed pressure sores 1.171.07

6 Core Measures That Showed Reduction in Disparities, 2000-2001 to 2004-2005 GroupMeasure Relative rate for earliest year in NHDR Relative rate for most recent year in NHDR Hispanic compared with Non-Hispanic White Adult perforated appendix per 1,000 admissions with appendicitis 1.061.01 Adults who can sometimes or never get care for illness or injury as soon as wanted 2.001.62 Children 19-35 months who received all recommended vaccines 1.281.18 New AIDS cases per 100,000 population age 13 and over 3.643.52 Pregnant women receiving prenatal care in first trimester 2.122.03 Poor compared with High income Adult perforated appendix per 1,000 admissions with appendicitis 3.471.10 Persons under age 65 with health insurance 6.154.86

7 Three Largest Disparities in Health Care Quality for Selected Groups: 2005 Versus 2007 NHDR 2005 NHDR 2007 NHDR GroupMeasure Relative rate Measure Black New AIDS cases per 100,000 population age 13 and over 10.4 10.0 Hospital admissions for pediatric asthma per 100,000 population ages 2-17 4.0 3.8 Percent of patients who left the emergency department without being seen 1.9 Hospital admissions for lower extremity amputations in patients with diabetes per 100,000 population 3.8 Asian Persons age 18 or older with serious mental illness who did not receive mental health treatment or counseling in the past year 1.6 Composite: Adults who reported poor communication with health providers 1.6 Adults who can sometimes or never get care for illness or injury as soon as wanted 1.6 Long-stay nursing home residents who were physically restrained 1.5 Adults age 65 and over who did not ever receive pneumococcal vaccination 1.5 1.5

8 Three Largest Disparities in Health Care Quality for Selected Groups: 2005 Versus 2007 NHDR 2005 NHDR 2007 NHDR GroupMeasure Relative rate Measure AI/ANs Women not receiving prenatal care in the first trimester 2.1 2.1 Composite: Adults who reported poor communication with health providers 1.8 1.8 Children ages 2-17 with no advice about physical activity 1.3 Women age 40 and over who reported they did not have a mammogram within the past 2 years 1.8 Hispanic New AIDS cases per 100,000 population age 13 and over 3.7 3.5 Adults who can sometimes or never get care for illness or injury as soon as wanted 2.0 Hospital admissions for lower extremity amputations in patients with diabetes per 100,000 population 2.9 Composite: Children whose parents reported poor communication with their health providers 1.8 Women not receiving prenatal care in the first trimester 2.0

9 Three Largest Disparities in Health Care Quality for Selected Groups: 2005 Versus 2007 NHDR 2005 NHDR 2007 NHDR GroupMeasure Relative rate Measure Poor Composite: Children whose parents reported poor communication with their health providers 3.3 3.0 Adults who can sometimes or never get care for illness or injury as soon as wanted 2.3 2.4 Children ages 2-17 who did not have a dental visit 2.0 Women age 40 and over who reported they did not have a mammogram within the past 2 years 2.1

10 Uninsurance Is a Major Barrier To Reducing Disparities Uninsured individuals do worse than privately insured individuals on almost 90% of quality measures and on all access measures Uninsured individuals do worse than privately insured individuals on almost 90% of quality measures and on all access measures CRM=core report measures

11 Origin of NHDR Health and Human Services Secretary required to submit annual report to Congress: Health and Human Services Secretary required to submit annual report to Congress: – National trends in health care quality (National Healthcare Quality Report, or NHQR) – Prevailing disparities in health care delivery as it relates to racial factors and socioeconomic factors in priority populations (NHDR) Mandated by Congress in Healthcare Research and Quality Act (PL. 106-129)

12 NHQR and NHDR Goals Provide a snapshot of health care delivery Provide a snapshot of health care delivery – 41 core measures of quality and access – 211 total measures Indicate the biggest gaps in care Indicate the biggest gaps in care Show national and State trends Show national and State trends Tell us how we can reach our goals Tell us how we can reach our goals Help align measures across public and private quality initiatives Help align measures across public and private quality initiatives

13 NHQR and NHDR Framework Consumer Perspectives on Health Care Needs Components of Health Care Quality SafetyEffectiveness Patient Centeredness Timeliness Staying healthy Getting better Living with illness or disability Coping with end-of- life matters Source: Institute of Medicine Committee. “Envisioning the National Health Care Quality Report,” 2001

14 Relationship Between NHDR and NHQR NHDRNHQR Snapshot of disparities in health care in America Snapshot of quality of health care in America Quality + access Quality Safety, effectiveness, timeliness, patient centeredness + equity Safety, effectiveness, timeliness, patient centeredness Variation across populations Variation across States

15 NHQR/NHDR Content and Organization Effectiveness Effectiveness – Cancer – Diabetes – End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) – Heart Disease – HIV and AIDS – Maternal and Child Health – Mental Health and Substance Abuse – Nursing Home, Home Health, and Hospice Care Patient Safety Patient Safety Timeliness Timeliness Patient Centeredness Patient Centeredness Access to Health Care Access to Health Care Priority Populations Priority Populations *Also includes a chapter on Efficiency NHQR* NHDR
