“What’s Driving P4P and Where Are We”
R. H. Walker MDOctober 25, 2006
National Pay for Performance (P4P) Programs
• Momentum started with IOM reports
• Employer market is looking for better quality ROI for health care dollars – Bridges to Excellence
• Medicare Initiatives in P4P
• President Bush’s goals for EMRs
Medical Errors – Institute Of Medicine Report
• 44,000 – 98,000 Americans die from medical errors annually
• Only 55% of patients received recommended care• Medication-related errors of hospitalized patients
cost roughly $3.5 billion annually• Medical errors kill more people per year than
breast cancer, AIDS, or motor vehicle accidents

Key Findings from the National P4P Study
• Expansion to PPO and CDH Products
• Expansion to specialists – 52%
• Increasing use of tier fee schedules rather than bonus payments
• Demonstration of ROI
• Growing interest in public reporting
• CMS in the P4P market

Transparency
– Provide health care consumers information to make the right decision
"If you don't want people to see your data, you're in the wrong century,"
Dennis O'Leary, Chief Executive Officer JCAHO, Aug 2006
Why Transparency ?
• Market Demand – Employers
• Consumerism
• Impact on quality outcomes and affordability
President Bush Calls On Hospitals To Share Price And Quality Data, AHA Issues “Roadmap” To Price Transparency
“Every hospital represented here should take action to make information on prices and quality available to all your patients.If everyone here cooperates in this endeavor we can increase transparency without the need for legislation from the United States Congress,” said Bush
American Health Lawyers Association website – May 2006
May 1, 2006 address to the annual meeting for the American Hospital Association
Three Components of Transparency
Cost Quality Decision Support
Helping consumers make informed health care choices as consumers are asked to pay a greater portion of the cost of care
Cost of Care
• Hospital Claims• Inpatient• Outpatient
• Physician Claims• Other services
• Pharmacy• DME
• Relative Scales vs Absolute Dollars
• Costs by Treatment Episodes vs single CPT codes
• Differences in benefit designs
• Global rates
Issues Cost Sources
Quality of Care
• National Measures such as HEDIS
• Satisfaction surveys• Needs to be both by
hospital and physician• Focus on quality not
cost efficiency
• Issue of small numbers
• Need for national benchmarks
• All payer data bases • Risk adjusted data
IssuesMetrics
Decision Support
• Information needs to be relevant for a member’s plan and benefit design
• Absolute necessity with consumerism
• Needs to include a comparison tool
• Needs to be linked to both quality and cost
Virginia Pay for Performance Programs
• Quality-In-Sights Hospital Incentive Program – (Q-HIPSM)
• Quality Physician Performance Programs - (Q-P3SM)
• Cardiology• Gastroenterology• Cardiac Surgery
• Performance Extra - PEX
Strategy to match reimbursement to evidence based medicine and quality of care outcomes
Q-HIPSM - Successful in Aligning with National Performance Based Incentive Principles
• AMA, JCAHO, CMS, AHA, MGMA all have P4P principles
• Q-HIP • Is voluntary• Consistently applies nationally vetted and recognized
evidence based indicators• Aligns reimbursement with the practice of high quality
and safe health care for all consumers• Is transparent with PSO validation and auditing of data• Available to all network hospitals
Quality-In-Sights Hospital Incentive Plan
“By working together we can improve the quality and reduce the variation in
care delivered across the entire program coverage area”
Q-HIPSM- A Collaborative Effort
Q-HIPSM- VHI-Developed Web Tool
Q-HIPSM in Virginia
• 60 hospitals to participate in Q-HIPSM by 2006 • 11 large health systems• 92.7% of Anthem inpatient admissions in Commonwealth
of Virginia• Rural, local and tertiary care hospitals• All regions of the Commonwealth represented• Outside Virginia
• Northeast Region (ME, NH, CT): 24 hospitals• Georgia: 20 hospitals• New York: 40 hospitals (planned)• Western Region: (CO, NV): 19 hospitals

Surprising Developments
• One large hospital reports Q-HIP scores to its board of directors annually.
• A number of hospitals include Q-HIP scores as part of their own internal corporate performance reporting
• A major academic medical center ties Q-HIP scores to front-line staff salary bonuses
Because (Q-HIP) uses aggregated hospital-wide performance data, it overcomes problems with small numbers and difficulties with attributions. Because the rewards are based on shared performance, the program is intended to create incentives for competing physician groups to work together with hospital administration in a cooperative manner to achieve continuous quality improvement.Congressional Testimony of John Brush, MD, American College of Cardiology July 27, 2006
This is a win-win situation in my mind. As health care providers, we always strive to do the right thing for our patients. The reality is this sometimes costs more in terms of putting in place new structures and processes to support a better way of delivering services.
Ron Clark, MD, Chief Medical Officer, VCU Health System
