Key Challenges of the Reform Era

US National Debt at $15.9 Trillion

4

• Unless the U.S. government fixes the budget, US National debt (credit card bill) will topple $16 trillion this fall and rise to $22.1 Trillion within 4 years.

• US national debt passes 20% of the entire world’s combined GDP.

Social Security• Projected to be insolvent by 2033

Medicare• 2012 – 50 million people (80 million by 2030)• In the red in its largest fund in 2024• Trust fund that pays for disability benefits is projected to run

out of money in just 4 years

Cost-cutting steps have been successful and growth in Medicare spending per person has slowed markedly in recent years, but the situation is dire unless changes are made.

Three Key Decisions Arguments Supporting Individual Mandate

Constitutional Discussion

Individual Mandate:Can the federal government compel individuals to purchase health insurance?

Medicaid Expansion:Is the ACA’s Medicaid expansion a violation of states’ rights?

Severability:Should the remainder of the ACA stand if a portion is struck down?

Supreme Court Decision

Upheld under Congress’ power to impose taxes

Medicaid expansion upheld; federal government may not withhold existing Medicaid funds if states forgo expansion

The remainder of the law can stand

Hospital Margins At Risk

Reimbursement At Risk

Hospital Drivers for Alignment

21

Lower Costs“The biggest potential income streams for both hospitals and physicians may reside in sharing savings from providers. To do that, hospitals and physicians must manage care together.” – PwC

“Physician orders are directly responsible for 80% of U.S. healthcare spending.” – Deloitte Center for Health Solutions

Better Quality“Better quality will finally pay off for hospitals but they need physicians to deliver it.” – PwC

New Payment Systems“Hospitals need to partner with physicians as a means of participating in ACO’s and other new payment arrangements.” – PwC

Expand Base, Increase Volume, Grow Market Share“High end expensive procedures are at risk unless we can expand the referral base.” – Michael Sachs, Sg2

Patients make appointments

Patients’ chief symptoms or reasons for visit determine care

Care is determined by today’s problem and time available today

Care varies by provider

Patients are responsible for coordinating their own care

Acute care is delivered during the next available appointment and to walk-ins

Patient must tell caregiver what happened

Operations center on physician’s schedule

Patients are registered in the medical home

PCMH systematically assesses all patient health needs to plan care

Care is determined by a proactive plan to meet patient’s needs (with our without an office visit)

Care is consistent with evidence-based guidelines

A prepared team of professionals coordinates all patient care

Acute care is delivered by open-access and non-visit contacts

PCMH tracks tests, consultations, ED visits, hospital visits and follow-up care

A multidisciplinary team works to serve patients

PCMH Benefits and Risks

The PCMH is a health care approach that facilitates partnerships between patients, their families and personal physicians (and/or extenders). The PCMH follows a set of standards around care coordination and data monitoring that leads to demonstrated quality outcomes at reduced costs.

• Increases quality and reduces cost of chronic patient care

• Enhances access and continuity of care

• Aligns PCP physicians around care delivery

• Focuses on integrated care management

• Patient survey results help drive quality improvement

• Presents opportunity for enhanced reimbursement

• Creates possible competitive advantage

• ROI uncertain and difficult to measure

• Demands increased administrative support

• Requires (significant) IT investment

• Creates significant change in culture and practice patterns

• Requires progressive use of technology and other models of patient interaction

ACO Structure

44

Component Rule

Legal Structure

• Legal entity under state and federal law• Capable of receiving / repaying shared savings / losses• Separate legal entity if 2 or more independent participants

Governance

• Defined governance structure in ACO application• ACO participants must control 75% of board• Beneficiaries must be included in governance

Leadership and Management

• ACO must have operations manager under control of board• ACO clinical management by of one of ACO physicians• QA / PI initiatives and protocols must be defined

Mid-Cycle Structural Changes

• New participants may be added to ACO during period• Must notify CMS of any changes within 30 days

IT Initiatives

• Percent of PCPs qualifying for EHR incentive program weighted heavily in scoring of quality measures

• ACO required to promote evidence based medicine, report internally on quality and cost metrics and coordinate care

ACO Care Redesign

48

Patient base split among multiple providers with competing interests

Organization is physician-led system of care encompassing all patient services

Responsibility for patient care transitioned from one provider to the next

Organization is held accountable for overall clinical results, cost and efficiency

System designed to react to acute events rather than focus on prevention

Population served receives prevention and wellness services

Current payment system supports specialist services over primary care

Core of organization is primary care supported by specialists

Non-clinical demands on physicians time increasing diverting physicians attention from providing medical services

Physicians supported by practice teams that increase practice efficiency and quality

Technology adoption and use varies among PCP, specialists and hospitals

IT infrastructure coordinated to measure and report standardized metrics focused on quality

Fee-for-service delivery system rewards non-coordinated care throughout system

Delivery system capable of coordinating care across all settings

Co-Management Fundamentals

53

Valuation •In return for provision of management services, physicians receive compensation at Fair Market Value (ie, commensurate with what a full-time, 3rd party manager of CV services would command)

Fixed Duties •Physicians are tasked with specific, non-clinical duties that further the goals of the service line and are paid for their time and effort

Performance Metrics •Physicians are expected to improve upon historical hospital performance in key areas such as clinical outcomes, quality, efficiency and satisfaction and are paid according to their level of success in achieving pre-determined targets

Governance •The physicians form a physician LLC that contracts with the hospital and they, in turn, organize themselves in committees to effectively manage the hospital’s service line and accomplish the fixed duties and performance metric goals

"To avoid large and ultimately unsustainable budget deficits, the nation will ultimately have to choose among higher taxes, modifications to entitlement programs such as Social Security and Medicare, less spending on everything else from education to defense, or some combination of the above . . .

These choices are difficult, and it always seems easier to put them off -- until the day they cannot be put off anymore . . .

unless we as a nation demonstrate a strong commitment to fiscal responsibility, in the longer run we will have neither financial stability nor healthy economic growth."
