Partners Population Insights: How are we performing on our risk populations?a) How does our trend compare to prior year and benchmark?
b) What are the major changes in TME trend by key categories?
- Resource area and site of care
‒ Service grouping
‒ Unit of action
‒ Demographics
c) What are effective ways to visualize data to drive managerial action?
d) What ways to leverage data to construct a story about PHM trend performance?

#HASummit14
Partners Population Insights: How the tool engages physicians in risk• Empowered physicians and practices to assess trend
performance of the system and of their own patients
• Used tool to engage physicians using their own data to identify areas of clinical and managerial action
• Developed a self-service model to make data easy, accessible, and not intimidating
• Generated more bi-directional communication between administrators (corporate and local) and clinical practices

DRAFTPartners Episodes of Care: Improving clinical care while preparing for future payment arrangements
9
Identify areas of clinical variation with the greatest opportunity and/or within the physicians’ control
Engage specialists
Manage utilization, cost, and quality
Objective: to reduce cost of episode (TME) and internal PHS costs; improve quality
Prepare for CMS Episodic Payment
Assess Clinical
Variation
Go to Market with
Employers
Commercial Contracting
CMS Mandate on Hips/Knees Bundles to begin Jan 2016 in 75 geographic regions
Objective: to reduce cost of episode (Total Medical Expense TME)
Opportunity to Engage 3rd parties directly (Employers, Other ACOs, etc.)
Minimal traction with commercial payers historically
Expect to follow CMS footsteps
Not immediate priority
#HASummit14
DRAFTPartners Episodes of Care: Key questions answered by the tool 1) What is the average cost by episode and how is this
shifting?
2) What is the distribution of episodes by cost and how is this trended?
3) How does my hospital and physician group compare with others and where are the outliers?
4) At the MD level, which cases are driving outlier status and why?
5) What caused complications for outlier cases? Did patients come in with that or caused by hospital/physician?
6) How much unmanaged variation is there month to month, year to year? Does the variation exceed what can be managed?
