Funding Adjustment Models How Do You Incentivize Value? Bob Opsut/Greg Atkinson OASD (HA) Health Budgets and Financial Policy
2
What is Value in Health Care? Volume (Activities, Episodes, Population) + Outcomes (Readiness, Population Health, Customer satisfaction) Resources (MilPers, appropriations, reimbursements) 2 How Much? How Well? At What Cost?
3
Background PPS initiated in 2005 to rationalize the direct care budget adjustments – Presidents Management Agenda – Budget to follow performance – Declining workload – Care shifting to PSC – Provide way to offset Efficiency Wedge – Budget could be stable if more work done – Provide funds for recapture – Way to move PSC funds to Direct Care 3
4
Background (cont.) Initially proposed as a capitated system Considered too risky and too large a leap Fee for service (FFS) system seen as simpler to implement and necessary to familiarize the staff with workload measures SMMAC decided to start as a Fee for Service system with capitation some time in the future Concern remains that MTFs would have difficulty managing under capitation However, higher growth in PMPM for MTF enrollees creates budget pressures to go to capitation 4

Transition In Both Payment & Delivery Systems Today Payment System Adapted From “From Volume To Value: Better Ways To Pay For Health Care”, Health Affairs, Sep/Oct 2009. Delivery System Transition Ideal? Fully Integrated Delivery System Volume-driven fragmented care Fee-for-service Medical Home Payments Full Population Prepayment Co-evolution of organization and payment Primary Care Sub-Capitation PCMH Level 2/3 Medical Homes 5

How Well - Third Available Acute Pensacola earned $30,250. Quantico lost $34,568 Earnings are calculated monthly. By crossing above 60%, Pensacola began earning $0.50/enrollee month versus $0.25 prior to crossing 60%. Conversely, Quantico dropped to $0.25/enrollee in most months, causing a significant earnings decline from 2009.

How Well - Third Available Routine Pensacola lost $228,522. Quantico earned $36,097 Earnings are calculated monthly. In 2011, Pensacola decreased in raw performance from 92% to 84% Additionally, they also dropped below 80% in some of the months of 2011, which caused them to earn an additional dollar less per enrollee ($1.50 - $0.50) in those months. In the months that the performance dipped below 80%, earnings fell almost 33%. By passing above 60%, Quantico began earning $0.50 per enrollee per month instead of only $0.25.

How Well - ER Visits / 100 ER roughly calculates the difference in PPS earnings based on utilization that would be expected and then disperses a portion of the savings (or costs). ((Enrollees 2011 * ER 2009 ) – (Enrollees 2011 * ER 2011 )) * 300 * X % Where X % is based on the performance year ER Rate – < 30.0, 20% – < 35.0, 10% – >35.0, 5% – Increase above baseline -5% 30

32
How Well - PMPM PMPM earnings are based on the savings (or cost) from the MHS target. The 2 year target from 2009 to 2011 is a 9.38% increase. Anything within +/- 2% of that falls into the safe zone. 10% of the savings (or cost) is awarded to those that beat the target by 2% or more. 20% of the savings (or cost) is awarded to those that beat the target by 4% or more. 32
33
PMPM Continued Pensacola fell within the safe zone and was neither awarded nor penalized financially. Quantico increased by well over 4% of the target and thusly was penalized 20% of the increased cost. Enrollees 2011 * ((PMPM 2011 – PMPM Target ) * 12) * 20% 22,138 * ((347-311)*12) * 20% = $1.9million PerformancePopulation 2009 301.47 42,541 2011 329.85 43,095 % Increase9.4% Target 329.74 PerformancePopulation 2009 284.40 20,874 2011 346.96 22,138 % Increase22.0% Target 311.08 33

Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation Comprehensive Primary Care Initiative
36
Tests two models simultaneously Practice redesign Targeting 5 key primary care functions (does not equal PCMH specific model) Payment redesign – 2 key components of program PMPM care management fee Shared savings First program to focus on reduction of overall cost of beneficiary Better use of data Ongoing, regular reports to providers Practice and Payment Redesign Through the CPCI – Overview 36
37
Reasons/Purpose for MHS Participation 1. Test new model of care for MCSC enrollees 2. Investing in PC providers may --> increase in network (Oregon state reps highlighted especially) 3. Partnering with CMS 4. Partnering with state 5. Establishing roadmap for future such US-wide demonstrations with other federal partners 6. Helps inform future TRICARE contracts. Does this payment mechanism reduce overall cost per beneficiary? One of goals of CPCI is to build a medical neighborhood with providers and payers 37
38
MHS Selection Criteria: Population MHS Criteria: populations eligible for demonstration – Prime enrollees to MCSC (does not include standard care) Care for non-enrolled beneficiaries (standard patients) potentially acquired at multiple providers Demonstration is testing management of enrollee care to PCMs – Active duty family members, retiree and retiree family members Potential geographic relocations of ADFMs may impact significance of results – Outside a prism and catchment area – If in a prism or catchment area, referrals to MTFs would occur – Cost of care in MTFs highly variable and presents problem with study review 38
39
MHS Selection Criteria: Regions 7 regions selected by CMMI 4 with population too small for MHS participation Arkansas, Oregon (whole state); Oklahoma (only Tulsa area) ― Allows for testing model in rural and metropolitan areas 39 CPCI Markets TRICARE Region % Purchased Care Total Enrollees Enrollees Meeting MHS Criteria for Participation Arkansas South 95% 18,829 11,732 Oregon West 95% 6,161 Oklahoma (Tulsa)South95% 13,819 Colorado Population too small for MHS participation New Jersey New York (Albany) Ohio (Cincinnati, Dayton)
40
How Much? Management Fee – Risk adjust using Medicare model; revise in future as MHS- specific model evolves – Average year 1 & 2 estimates ADFM - ~$7 per enrollee per month Retirees, NADFM - ~$9 per enrollee per month – Potential liability first year of 31,712 eligibles, assuming 20% participation: 6,343 enrollees = $652,150 Fee for Service for any care provided 40
41
How well? Quality measures throughout initiative Core set of measures “ Not later than year 2” shared savings as performance bonus, with reduction in care management fee Calculated at total area level (state for Arkansas & Oregon; Tulsa region for Oklahoma) Calculation – Actual risk-adjusted PMPM (including management fee) compared to – Projected risk-adjusted PMPM (based on baseline inflated) Catastrophic individuals excluded Shared saving for distribution – 50% 41
42
Shared Savings: Distribution As performance bonuses Based on individual practice performance Calculated on quality & utilization metrics – formula TBD 42
43
Tentative Timeline Commitment finalized with CMMI – May 31, 2012 Start of demonstration for MHS: September 1, 2013 Major mileposts from June 1, 2012 – August 31, 2013 to develop TRICARE specific requirements. No later than ― June 2012: Prepare Decision Memorandum for Director, TMA to establish approval to for the TRICARE demonstration project ― May 1, 2013: Develop and Publish Federal Register Notice of Demonstration ― July 1, 2013: Develop and issue contract modification to TMA contractors by July 15, 2012 to ensure implementation by September 1, 2013 43
44
So… Has FFS PPS outlived its usefulness? Concern that FFS induces: Over-utilization Upcoding Treatment over prevention Considerable discussion each year on mid-year adjustments Competition/rancor between services MTFs strong focus only on PPS earning areas Qulaity has ot been focus of performance adjustments Only used to distribute excess funds 44
45
FFS with Performance Bonus? Primary Care Sub-capitation with Specialty FFS? Full capitation with Shared Savings? Stay Tuned 45 Future PPS?? (Performance Payment system)
