But we can figure this thing out!

Laws Affecting Quality Improvement

As consensus was reached around the importance of improving quality, Congress passed several important laws to establish new quality programs:

Medicare Prescript ion Drug, Improvement & Modernization Act (MMA)

Tax Relief and Health Care Act (TRHCA)

Medicare Improvements For Patients & Providers Act (MIPPA)

20052002 2004

Deficit Reduct ion Act (ORA)

Medicare, Medicaid ,& SCHIPExtensionAct (MMSEA)

American Recovery & Reinvestment Act (ARRA)

Mental Health Parity and Addict ion Equality Act (MHPAEA)

Affordable Care Act (ACA)

Selected Historical Landmarks in US Healthcare Quality

• 1999: To Err Is Human published by IOM

• 1999: National Quality Forum established

• 2001: Crossing the Quality Chasm published by IOM

• 2005: CMS Quality Roadmap established

• 2005: Petiormance Measurement: Accelerat ing Improvement published by IOM

• 2006: Medicare establishes QualityImprovement Organization Program

• 2008: NQF establishes National Priorities Partnership

First IOM Committee Report

To Err is Human: Building a Safer Health System (1999) begins to define the US quality problem:

• Medical errors harm 44,500 to 98,000 patients annually

• Medical errors cost $17 B to $29 B annually (including the expense of additional care necessitated by the errors, lost income and household productivity, and disability)

• Flawed systems, processes, and conditions lead people to make mistakes or fail to prevent them

Defining Quality

The IOM definit ion of quality becomes the guide for all national quality efforts:

"Quality care is defined as the degree to which health services for individuals and populations increase the likelihood of desired health outcomes and are consistent with current professional knowledge."

Institute of Medicine (2001)

“There is no problem America has that is so large we can not invent our way out of it.”~ Todd Park

“You can always count on Americans to do the right thing - after they've tried everything else.”~Winston Churchill

In the U.S. we spend more per capita on healthcare thanany other country in the world

In spite of those expenditures, U.S. healthcare quality is often inferior to that of other nations and often doesn’t meet expected evidence-based guidelines

There are significant variations in quality and costs across the nation with increasing evidence that there may even be an inverse relationship between the two

Healthcare expenditures account for a larger section of the U.S. economy over the years and funding those expenditures is increasingly more difficult

Cost effectiveness analytics is resisted as a tool

Does your organization have a strategy formeeting the requirements of “Obamacare?”

Affordable Care Act signed March 23, 2010 Major components of the law:

New consumer rights and protections;

Holding insurance companies accountable;

Increasing access to affordable care; and

Improving quality and lowering costs.

Creation of a learning environment in healthcare

Affordable Care Act (§3011) requiredSecretary to: Set priorities for improving American

healthcare; and Create a strategic plan for achieving

them through HHS-specific: Plans; Goals; Benchmarks; and Standardized quality metrics.

HHS developed drafts through public processes that included over 300 groups, organizations, and individuals. All major healthcare sectors represented.

Culminated in the “National Strategy forQuality Improvement in Health Care” (March2011).

Strategy has six overarching aims, goals andpriorities:1. Making care safer;2. Ensuring person- and family-centered care;3. Promoting better care communication and

coordination;4. Preventing and treating leading causes of

death (includingCVD);

5. Working in communities to promote healthy living; and

6. Making quality care more affordable.

Affordable Care Act (§3014) required Secretary to set up a “pre-rulemaking process” forselecting quality and efficiency measures by: Posting a list of measures under

consideration; Giving stakeholders a chance to

comment on this list; Publishing HHS’ rationale for selecting

any measures not endorsed by the National Quality Foundation (NQF); and

Assessing the impact of using NQF-endorsed measures every 3 years.

Is your organization participating in: PQRS PCMH ACO Value Based

Purchasing None of the above

Although recently enacted into law under the ACA, VBP hasbeen in development for years Medicare Modernization Act (MMA) of 2003:

Congress commissioned the Institute of Medicine (IOM) to “identify and prioritize options to align performance to payment in Medicare.” The IOM reports provided the rationale to reconfigure the U.S. health care payment system, supporting a “pay for performance” (P4P) approach.

Deficit Reduction Act (DRA) of 2005 Section 5001(b): This act required HHS to develop a plan to implement a VBP

program for Medicare payment for subsection (d) hospitals, beginning with FY 2009. The Medicare Hospital VBP program would be built on the current Reporting Hospital Quality Data for Annual Payment Update (RHQDAPU) Program and be budget-neutral.

Medicare Improvements for Patients and Providers Act(MIPPA) of 2008 Section 131(d): This act required HHS to develop a VBP transition plan for

providers receiving Medicare payments. HHS submitted this report to Congress in December 2008 detailing a draft transition plan to a Medicare VBP program for physicians and other professional services, as well as the design issues under consideration.

“A major, overarching theme in the Affordable Care Act is one of measurement,transparency, and altering payment to reinforce, not simply volume of services, butthe quality of the effects of those services.

Instead of payment that asks, “How much did you do,” the Affordable Care Act clearly moves us toward payment that asks, “How well did you do?” and, more important, “How well did the patient do?”

That idea is at the heart of Value-Based Purchasing. It is not just a CMS idea; it is oneincreasingly pervading the agenda of all payers.”

Don Berwick, CMS Administrator, April 4, 2011

Affordable Care Act set up value-basedpurchasing (VBP) for: Hospitals (§3001); Skilled Nursing Facilities (§3006); Home Health Agencies (§3006); Ambulatory Surgery Centers (§3006);

and Physicians, through a “value modifier”

(§3007).Affordable Care Act also tied portions

of DRGpayments to: –Readmission rates (§3025); and Hospital-acquired conditions (§3008).

What does it all mean?

Doing the right things for patients will become easier and doing the wrong things will become more difficult – and expensive!

CMMI establishment mandated (Section §3021) Consultation & input from broad healthcare

sector inimplementation

Develop patient-centered payment models

Rapid piloting/testing of new payment programs

Encourage evidence-based, coordinated care for Medicare, Medicaid, CHIP

Focuses on populations “for which there are deficits in care leading to poor clinical outcomes or potentially avoidable expenditures”

“Risk-based comprehensive payment or salary-basedpayment” models

“Geriatric assessments and comprehensive care plans…interdisciplinary care teams…multiple chronic conditions…”

“transition health care providers away from fee-for- service-based reimbursement and towards salary- based”

“health information technology-enabled provider network that includes care coordinators, chronic disease registry, home telehealth technology”

Medicare Shared Savings Program (Section 3022) Encourages multiple providers of

services and supplies to:

▪ Join together and create ACOs

▪ Be jointly accountable for health & experience ofcare for individuals over a period of time

▪ Improve population health, overlap with community

▪ Reduce rate of healthcare spending, improve quality

The number and types of ACOs are expanding

Growth is centered in larger population centers

Hospital systems appear to be the primary backers of ACOs, but physician groups are playing an increasingly larger role

Non-Medicare ACOs are experimenting with more diverse models than Medicare-backed ACOs

The success of any particular ACO model is still

undetermined

Is your organization participating in the“meaningful use” EHR incentive program?

• In 2004 President Bush announced the critical need for the U.S. to begin assessing the need for electronic health records in all areas of the healthcare industry.

• On February 17, 2009, President Obama signed the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009. This statute includes the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act.

• Section 3001of the HITECH Act established the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).

• The ONC is at the forefront of the government’s health information technology efforts, and is a resource to the entire health system to support the adoption of health information technology.

Two CMS EHR Financial Incentive Programs were establishedunder the HITECH Act: Medicare- administered by CMS Medicaid – joint administration by CMS and

state Both programs are voluntary however

eligible providers must choose which program they will participate in and penalties begin in 2015 for Medicare

Both programs require use of certified EHR technology

Medicare program requires demonstration of meaningfuluse during first year of participation

Medicaid provides for payment of financial incentives to EPs who meet patient volume requirements and adopt/implement/upgrade during their first year of participation

Meaningful Use is using certified EHRtechnology to Improve quality, safety, efficiency,

and reduce health disparities Engage patients and families in their

health care Improve care coordination Improve population and public health All the while maintaining privacy and
