and costs for [adults] with chronic conditions
• Focus on primary care • >50% saturation of “health care market”
• Support Region-wide QI • Publicly report results • TRIPLE AIM

Special Features of Better Health’s Collaborative
• Led by providers • Partnerships with state govt, public health agencies and
academia in addition to employers and health plans • Prominent focus on safety net and reducing disparities • Electronic medical records used for all clinics’ quality
measurement, public reporting and improvement • Identifiable patient-level “social determinants” – race,
insurance status, language preference, income and educational attainment

What We Measure, Report and Work to Improve
Measurement - at the heart of everything we do…
• Care and Control of Diabetes (2007-), Heart Failure (2008-), and Hypertension (2009-)
• Depression Screening (2012-) • Patient Experience (2012-) • Disparities across the region

EMR-based Measures to Reduce Disparities and Improve Population Health
(2014: 170K patients)
• Insurance • Race • Hispanic Ethnicity • Language Preference • Sex • Geographic Location • Household Income* • Education* * from ACS/Census
• Body-Mass Index • Blood Pressure • Smoking Status • Depression Status

A Sauce for Improvement, not a Silver Bullet
1. Find the bright spots in our data (“those guys”)
2. Interview key informants - write up what they did
3. Disseminate the process in a safe space (here)
4. Re-measure adopters to see if they improved too 5. If they have improved, we have another
(Evidence-based) Best Practice.

Improving Care and Health: What about Costs of Care?

Cost of Care Projects/Analyses 1. The Better Health Experiment (2009-11) – have
the number and costs of “preventable” hospitalizations declined?
2. The Red Carpet Care program (2012-13) – did a health plan-supported “super-utilizer” project reduce pmpm costs?
3. MetroHealth Care Plus (2013) – did a “closed panel” Medicaid waiver program improve quality/save $$s?
4. “Primary Care Push” (2012--)– will an employer-supported PCMH program at Lake Health improve quality and reduce costs?
![Page 21: Better Health Partnershipbetterhealthpartnership.org/pdfs/lc_presentations/2015_10/lc_xvii... · not a Silver Bullet 1. Find the bright spots in our data (“those guys”) 2.

The “Better Health Experiment”
• Better primary care should reduce the rate of “ambulatory care sensitive hospitalizations”
• Our primary care providers care for ~70% of adults with chronic illnesses in Cuyahoga County.
• Using an all-payer hospitalizations dataset, we asked whether preventable hospitalizations declined more in Cuyahoga County than in 5 other large Ohio counties.

Red Carpet Care – Super-Utilizer Program
• The best approach to caring for “super-utilizers” is not known.
• With the support of health plans, BH designed a s-u program with embedded RN care coordinators, home visits, and personal phone access to the RN 24/7.
• Health plans paid for the RNs, pmpm, and agreed to a shared-savings program.
• We asked whether the Red Carpet Care program reduced costs.

MetroHealth Care Plus (MHCP) – a Medicaid waiver program in 2013
• Anticipating Medicaid expansion while debate about its demise continued, Ohio received a waiver to test an expansion in Cuyahoga County starting February 4, 2013
• 28,295 uninsured poor patients enrolled, with a median enrollment period of 9 months
• We re-purposed Better Health’s data to determine whether quality increased at lower costs among the enrollees vs. the continuously uninsured.

Employer-motivated PCMH and transparency
• Three large self-insured employers wanted the best care for their employees. – They agreed to jointly support embedded
care coordinators in exchange for clinics achieving national PCMH recognition and publicly reporting their results.
• Did this unique arrangement work?

Better Health’s Triple Aim Approaches and Results
1. Approaches: Using data to identify and disseminate best practices for important conditions
• “Positive deviants” celebrated, their work disseminated
2. Results: Widely recognized improvement: • Care for adults with chronic conditions • Disparities in care across multiple dimensions • Preventable hospitalizations

Can EHRs Help with “Social Determinants”?
• We have documented patients cared for in EHR systems do better and improve faster
• This is Not true for obesity • Adult BMI levels have remained flat over Sme • All of our partners care, but none has solved the problem • How can EHRs help?
![Page 41: Better Health Partnershipbetterhealthpartnership.org/pdfs/lc_presentations/2015_10/lc_xvii... · not a Silver Bullet 1. Find the bright spots in our data (“those guys”) 2.

Value of EHRs in addressing “social determinants”
• EHRs can identify: • where patients live • whether they are obese, have asthma, etc • related conditions and risk factors • local resources to help
• EHRs also can: • catalyze place-based interventions
• e.g. REC centers, museums, parks, businesses, grocery stores, assessments of at-risk houuseholds…..
• help us monitor progress

How Better Health will help
• Expand our established “backbone organization” activities in adult conditions to children: measurement, reporting, learning collaboratives, practice coaching (PCMH etc)
• Serve as convener across providers, public health agencies, state and local policymakers, and other stakeholders for children’s health
• Establish a Community Resource Database and website for use by providers and the public • Linking providers – through their EHRs - to resources near where
their patients live
