• Retrospective cohort study of 65,762 patients in 49 ICU’s in
25 hospitals participating in the APACHE clinical information
system 2009-2010
• Measured the impact of nighttime intensivist staffing on
outcomes in low- and high-intensity staffed ICU’s

CABSI Rate at UCSF Variation in Healthcare: The Dartmouth Atlas
• Documents variations in how medical resources are distributed and used in the United States.
• For ICU’s, methodology uses Medicare expenses in the last 6 months of life.
• By design, cannot identify if additional expenditure results in improved outcome (survival)

Looking forward…
• Retrospective study of 3999 patients with CHF from UC Hospitals plus Cedars-Sinai
• Multivariate risk adjustment looking at mortality, LOS, cost
• Greater resource utilization resulted in improved outcomes

Mortality Varies…

But was lowest with highest cost…

Objective Rankings? Oops!
US News & World Report Hospital Rankings: Methodology
• Reputation (32.5%): Physician survey
• Mortality Index (32.5%): Medicare data
• Patient Safety (5%): SSI, VAP, CRBSI, etc
• Other (30%): RN staffing, technology, other data from American Hospital Association, intensivist staffing, etc.

What about individual quality?
• New recommendations form the Joint Commission and CMS mandate that we begin to track individual provider’s competency:
• OPPE: Ongoing Professional Practice Evaluation
– Are privileges appropriate?
– Procedural volume
– Patient satisfaction
– Professional interactions/incident reports
• Attestation by Chair/Chief every 6 months
Pay for Performance
• Reward quality with financial incentives large enough for structural change
• Effectuate health system changes to reduce errors and improve quality and to reduce cost and improve efficiency of care
• Encourage MD’s to broaden care beyond the office visit (population management)
• Put greater responsibility on MD’s to “get it right the first time”
Paying for My Performance… Pay for Performance Affects YOU!
• Under the rules adopted by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), payments will be withheld from hospitals for care associated with treating certain catheter-associated urinary tract infections, vascular catheter-associated infections, mediastinitis after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery, and five other medical errors unrelated to infections (bed sores, objects left in patient’s bodies, blood incompatibility, air embolism, and falls). The new rules went into effect in October 2008.

Start Seeking Sepsis
• California Department of Health Care Services
– Delivery System Reform Incentive Payments (DSRIP)
– Quality incentive pool of $600 million to $700 million for 22 public hospitals
• Institution basic payments reduced
– Incentive payments linked to achieving milestones

When we don’t do it ourselves, the government does it for/to us…
• Affordable Care Act
• Pay for Performance
• DSRIP

Affordable Care Act Quality Improvement Initiatives: Hospital Level
Value-based purchasing
Hospital payments adjusted up or down based on performance measure. Up to 1% of payment in 2013 and up to 2% in 2017
Hospital-acquired conditions
Currently non-payment for HAC’s. Reimbursement will be reduced by 1% for hospitals in top quartile of HAC’s nationally beginning in 2015
Readmissions reduction program
Penalty for readmission rate for certain conditions reaches specified threshold. Penalty up to 1% in 2013 and up to 3% in 2015
Value Based Purchasing
Percent of Heart Attack Patients Given Fibrinolytic Medication Within 30 Minutes Of Arrival
Percent of Heart Attack Patients Given PCI Within 90 Minutes Of Arrival
Percent of Pneumonia Patients Whose Initial Emergency Room Blood Culture Was Performed Prior To The Administration Of The First Hospital Dose Of Antibiotics
Initial Antibiotic Selection for CAP in Immunocompetent Patient
Prophylactic Antibiotic Received Within One Hour Prior to Surgical Incision
Cardiac Surgery Patients with Controlled 6AM Postoperative Serum Glucose
Surgery Patients on a Beta Blocker Prior to Arrival That Received a Beta Blocker During the Perioperative Period
Surgery Patients with Recommended Venous Thromboembolism Prophylaxis Ordered
Patient Experience of Care • How well nurses communicated with patients • How well doctors communicated with patients • How responsive hospital staff were to patients’ needs • How well caregivers managed patients’ pain • How well caregivers explained patients’ medications to them • How clean and quiet the hospital was • How well caregivers explained the steps patients and families need to take to care for
themselves outside of the hospital (i.e., discharge instructions)
Hospital Acquired Conditions
Retained foreign object after surgery
Air embolism
Blood incompatibility
Pressure Ulcers (Stage 3 or 4)
Falls and trauma
Catheter-associated Urinary Tract Infection
CABSI
Manifestations of poor glycemic control (DKA, HONC)
Surgical Site Infection after CABG, Ortho, Gastric bypass, AICD
DVT and PE following THA or TKA
Iatrogenic pneumothorax
Reducing Readmissions
Adopted readmission measures for the applicable conditions of Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI), Heart Failure (HF) and Pneumonia (PN);
A hospital’s excess readmission ratio for AMI, HF and PN is a measure of a hospital’s readmission performance compared to the national average for the hospital’s set of patients with that applicable condition.
In addition, CMS proposes to expand the applicable conditions for FY 2015 to include: (1) patients admitted for an acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD); and (2) patients admitted for elective total hip arthroplasty (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

Affordable Care Act Quality Improvement Initiatives: Physician Level
Physician Quality Reporting System
PQRS is a pay-for-reporting program where physicians reporting on quality measures receive small bonus. In 2015, MD’s not participating penalized 1.5%
Public reporting
Starting 2014, data reported to PQRS will be publically available via Physician Compare website
Value-based purchasing
MD payments adjusted up or down based on PQRS performance compared to cost. Initially voluntary, then mandatory for fee for service Medicare by 2017
Physician Quality Reporting System
Perioperative Care: Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) Prophylaxis (When Indicated in ALL Patients) Percentage of patients aged 18 years and older undergoing procedures for which VTE prophylaxis is indicated in all patients, who had an order for Low Molecular Weight Heparin (LMWH), Low-Dose Unfractionated Heparin (LDUH), adjusted-dose warfarin, fondaparinux or mechanical prophylaxis to be given within 24 hours prior to incision time or within 24 hours after surgery end time
Prevention of Catheter-Related Bloodstream Infections (CRBSI): Central Venous Catheter (CVC) Insertion Protocol Percentage of patients, regardless of age, who undergo CVC insertion for whom CVC was inserted with all elements of maximal sterile barrier technique [cap AND mask AND sterile gown AND sterile gloves AND a large sterile sheet AND hand hygiene AND 2% chlorhexidine for cutaneous
Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG): Prolonged Intubation: Percentage of patients aged 18 years and older undergoing isolated CABG surgery who require intubation > 24 hours
