SIMUL8 Corporation | SIMUL8.com | info@SIMUL8.com 1 800 547 6024 | +44 141 552 6888 We know the problem… 15m people with Long Term Conditions Increasing each year with ageing population Responsible for 70% of NHS costs Significant cause of ED attendance and urgent admission

SIMUL8 Corporation | SIMUL8.com | info@SIMUL8.com 1 800 547 6024 | +44 141 552 6888 Driving Policy through Funding Instruments A year of care capitation fund for a person living with multiple conditions Incentivizing providers and commissioners to work effectively together Aligning funding flows and patient need for support Improving outcomes and efficiency Reducing emergency care activity

SIMUL8 Corporation | SIMUL8.com | info@SIMUL8.com 1 800 547 6024 | +44 141 552 6888 The underlying research base Scottish School of Primary Care More people have 2 or more long term conditions

SIMUL8 Corporation | SIMUL8.com | info@SIMUL8.com 1 800 547 6024 | +44 141 552 6888 Long Term Conditions Only 18% of patients with COPD have just COPD Only 14% of patients with diabetes have just diabetes Only 5% of patients with dementia have just dementia Scottish School of Primary Care

SIMUL8 Corporation | SIMUL8.com | info@SIMUL8.com 1 800 547 6024 | +44 141 552 6888 What if? We plan care for people rather than disease? Are there common patterns of service use? Can we differentiate groups of patients by need and costs to create an annual tariff? Can we work within that tariff to reduce emergencies and manage care out of hospital?

SIMUL8 Corporation | SIMUL8.com | info@SIMUL8.com 1 800 547 6024 | +44 141 552 6888 Where does simulation help? Modelling uncertainty Testing assumptions and their consistency when no historic data Considering variability Driving thinking Sharing models

SIMUL8 Corporation | SIMUL8.com | info@SIMUL8.com 1 800 547 6024 | +44 141 552 6888 Our task Create a simulation model 7 pilot sites 1 national model to be used locally Looking for common parameters

SIMUL8 Corporation | SIMUL8.com | info@SIMUL8.com 1 800 547 6024 | +44 141 552 6888 Starting to simulate a new approach Services “consumed” Assessment of Need Patients at Risk Exacerbation

SIMUL8 Corporation | SIMUL8.com | info@SIMUL8.com 1 800 547 6024 | +44 141 552 6888 Using Scenario Generator Pathways Scenarios Whole system model Simulation results Service points, flows & waits Service models Referral patterns Capacity Duration Population Demography Prevalence Prevalence/ Influencing factors Demographic weighting Population Constrained resources Mental Health Social Care Urgent Planned Maternity Urgent

SIMUL8 Corporation | SIMUL8.com | info@SIMUL8.com 1 800 547 6024 | +44 141 552 6888 Services by level of need

SIMUL8 Corporation | SIMUL8.com | info@SIMUL8.com 1 800 547 6024 | +44 141 552 6888 But…… No real correlation between risk score and level of need Assessment of Need Patients at Risk

SIMUL8 Corporation | SIMUL8.com | info@SIMUL8.com 1 800 547 6024 | +44 141 552 6888 And……….. Dr. Abraham George A crisis curve?
18
SIMUL8 Corporation | SIMUL8.com | info@SIMUL8.com 1 800 547 6024 | +44 141 552 6888 Meanwhile End of Life – modelling death Highest number of deaths = organ failure (32%) Same group of patients with long term conditions
19
SIMUL8 Corporation | SIMUL8.com | info@SIMUL8.com 1 800 547 6024 | +44 141 552 6888 So where are we now?.. Year 2 A new model Predict demand by –risk score –numbers of long term conditions
20
SIMUL8 Corporation | SIMUL8.com | info@SIMUL8.com 1 800 547 6024 | +44 141 552 6888 So where are we now ctd?.. Year 2 Consistent definitions of services being accessed Able to calculate probability of access to services by long term condition groups % % % % Patient Outpatients Community Services AdmissionA&E Death New LTC Group % %
21
SIMUL8 Corporation | SIMUL8.com | info@SIMUL8.com 1 800 547 6024 | +44 141 552 6888 So where are we now ctd?.. Year 2 Include changing state of patients –Numbers of long term conditions –Low to very high
22
SIMUL8 Corporation | SIMUL8.com | info@SIMUL8.com 1 800 547 6024 | +44 141 552 6888 What the simulation does… Informs question development and data collection Allows experimentation and hypothesis testing where no historic data available Enables research evidence to be applied to policy and practice development Shares national assumptions meaningfully at local level Reduces risks in policy development by generating evidence for decisions
23
SIMUL8 Corporation | SIMUL8.com | info@SIMUL8.com 1 800 547 6024 | +44 141 552 6888 Questions? Claire.c@simul8.com Executive Director, Healthcare, SIMUL8 Corporation
