How Does the Medicaid Demonstration Project Align with the CPAA Vision?
![Page 19: COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 14, 2017 · 9/14/2017 · (or had received within one year) Project Planning. 15. Liz Arjun, Health Management Associates. Cascade Pacific Action Alliance](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050214/5f5ff670858997702e4babeb/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
How Medicaid Transformation Demonstration Supports Region’s Priorities
Medicaid Transformation can support the region’s efforts:• New funds to incentivize service delivery improvements• Continued funding depends on meeting clinical performance
metrics in years 3 – 5• If successful in meeting metrics, region will be able to make
innovative, strategic community investments beyond clinical needs• Support for improving how the parts of the system work together
• A pathway to investing and sustain changes that can drive towards CPAA vision
Note that these changes will benefit the entire system, not just Medicaid

How does CPAA earn these dollars?
![Page 22: COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 14, 2017 · 9/14/2017 · (or had received within one year) Project Planning. 15. Liz Arjun, Health Management Associates. Cascade Pacific Action Alliance](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050214/5f5ff670858997702e4babeb/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
HCA Toolkit offers Strategies within each Project to Earn Dollars by Achieving Outcomes
Note that . . .
Every project has a required list of metrics
Projects need to show progress in meeting performance metrics to receive funding
Regions that successfully achieve metrics will be able to use earned funds flexibly to make innovative and strategic community investments

Project Plan Scoring and AwardsIncentive Model Features
1. Number of projects has small impact on total potential revenue.2. Project Plan Points subject to subjective judgments; adds risk to scores3. P4R Determined by objective “yes/no” per element, so less risky4. P4P Negative step-down discontinuities (Continuous raw distribution becomes Step-wise
Earned)1. 99% Raw = 75% Earned2. 74% Raw = 50% Earned3. 49% Raw = 25% Earned4. 24% Raw = 0% Earned
5. P4P metrics use fixed, pre-defined populations so percentage of denominator addressed by interventions is just as critical as potential of strategy to change numerator
6. Some metrics appear poorly connected to project interventions

Project Plan Scoring and AwardsQuestions to Consider
1. Will earned revenue be greater with more projects or fewer projects?a. If synergies, then choose more projectsb. If resources are limited, choose fewer projects to allow focusc. If success is predictable, and varies by project, choose only highest ranked projects.d. If success not predictable, do more projects to create more chances for “average”
success.
2. How will the targets be set and what will be the gap between current and target?a. If targets are “challenging” assume “worst” case for budgetingb. If targets are “achievable”, be more optimisticc. If targets are “variable”, pick projects with “achievable” targets

Project Plan Scoring and AwardsPotential Work to Inform Project Decisions
1. Know the actual targets or at least the procedure for setting the targets to predict potential P4P achievement scores
2. Analyze last 3 years actual performance for each metric to assess intrinsic up/down trends, which may help/hurt ability to achieve targets
3. Assess random variation vs trend as percentage of performance targets (random variation alone may cause achievement/non-achievement of targets)
4. Balloons vs Stones: How to categorize the metrics used for multiple projects?

Definitions
Health equity means that everyone has a fair and just opportunity to be as healthy as possible. This requires removing obstacles to health such as poverty, discrimination, and their consequences, including powerlessness and lack of access to good jobs with fair pay, quality
education and housing, safe environments, and health care.
For the purposes of measurement, health equity means reducing and ultimately eliminating disparities in health and its determinants that
adversely affect excluded or marginalized groups.

What undermines equity
• Implicit bias• -isms• Structural inequity
Your zip code is a bigger determinant of health than your genetic code

How do you work on equity?
• Understand disparities and their causes• Analyze gaps and resources in context• Develop a habit of thinking and decision making• Focus your impact• Measure results
