Objectives
• Identify key aspects of three value-based payment programs and their relevance for rural providers and critical access hospitals (CAHs).
• Understand how these value-based programs are being implemented and supported in rural Michigan.

“There is no turning back to an unsustainable system that pays for procedures rather than value. In fact, the only option is to charge forward — for HHS to take bolder action, and for providers and payers to join with us.”
Alex M. Azar II, Secretary of HHS, March 5, 2018

Form Follows Finance
• How we deliver care depends on how we are paid for care.
• Health care reform is changing both payment and delivery.
• Fundamentally, reform involves transfer of financial risk from payers to providers.

clinicians as a result of MACRA (Medicare Access and CHIPReauthorization Act)
Two tracks:– Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS)
• Eventually -9% to +27% adjustment in pay
• Consolidates three existing programs (PQRS, VBM, MU) and adds a new category (improvement activities)
– Advanced Alternative Payment Models (APMs)• 5% APM bonus• Excluded from MIPS performance reporting requirements
Most physicians/clinicians will initially be paid under the MIPS track
• Baseline data 2017 = First bonus/penalty 2019• 94% of MIPS eligible clinicians in rural practices
participated in 2017.

One MI CAH Story
• The hospital had decided to report via claims. However, the claims score was very low, the claims data appeared to be incorrect.
• Started working with hospital information technology department and Evident (EHR) vendor. After a couple of months the hospitals EHR was finally able to produce a QRDA III file which we test in MIPScast along with using the meaningful use report for each provider we calculated the MIPs score.
• Assisted hospital in selecting Quality measures• Developed work plan to move the hospital along in the phases of transformation
for the TCPI program• 2016 measures were reported through registry to avoid 2018 reduction in
Medicare payments• Worked with hospital and EHR vendor to produce a QRDA III file• Assisted hospital with Meaningful use report, strategies and requirements • Hope to use MIPs report to further review measures for the future and use the
QRUR report to look further into costs

Medical Spending, Health Affairs, 32, no. 10 (2013):1781-1788.
▪ Beneficiaries attributed to ACO based on where they receive primary care
▪ Medicare pays fee-for-service (not capitation)
▪ CMS shares 50% of difference between estimated and actual cost
▪ But shared savings percent will be reduced if suboptimal quality

ACO Investment Model (AIM)
• The AIM funded Medicare Shared Savings Program (MSSP) is a Medicare/CMS program that allows providers to continue to be paid fee-for-service and/or cost-based reimbursement, while gaining the infrastructure, tools, and knowledge to manage population health.
• If a group of providers are successful in reducing costs, while meeting patient satisfaction and quality thresholds, they can share in up to 50% of the savings. If costs go up, there is no penalty or payment due from the providers.
• Three year program January 1, 2016 – December 31, 2018
![Page 25: ACOs, QPP, and VBP: Oh MI! - National Rural Health ...€¦ · How Medicare ACOs (called Medicare Shared Savings Programs) work: *Source: David I. Auerbach, et al, Accountable Care](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081521/5ec4999fd5d0403e0b308ea3/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
ACO Investment Model Payment
ACOs participating in the AIM funded MSSP received these payments on January 1, 2016:
• an upfront fixed payment of $250,000
• an upfront variable payment of $36 per assigned Medicare beneficiary (based on preliminary prospectively-assigned beneficiaries); and
• a monthly payment of $8 per Medicare beneficiary permonth (based on preliminary prospectively-assigned beneficiaries).

• Southern Michigan Rural ACO hit all 34 quality measures and reduced Medicare spending 1.5%.
• The Caravan Health ACO Model works.
• The ACO members view it as a “Scholarship” to learn and implement a Value-Based Program.
• MCRH is getting a Value-Based Program education.

CMS Models Are Only Part of the Story• Growth in Medicare Advantage
– Non-metro enrollment in 2017: about 2.4 million nationally (23%)
• State Medicaid Program Redesign– Managed Care– ACO-type payment structures
• Commercial/Private Insurance– Increasing costs/patient risk-sharing– Narrow networks
Value-based payment is here to stay!(but acronyms and programs likely to change)
