• Life expectancy improved by 3 years
• Years with disability increased • US fell from 14th to 26th compared to
other nations. • Leading cause for premature deaths
include • CVD• Lung Cancer• CVA
• Leading cause of Disabilities • Back Pain • Musculoskeletal issues • Depression / Anxiety

Demographic Trends• 1/3 US population – Baby Boomers• 10,000 people a day reach 65• 1 in 10 Baby Boomers is managing multiple
chronic illnesses; by 2030:• 1 in 4 have diabetes• 1 in 2 have arthritis• 1 in 2.5 will be obese
• Treatment of patients with co-morbities cost 7 x those without chronic illness
• 2/3 Medicare spending - 5 or more chronic conditions

Challenges with Today’s Care
• Healthcare costs growing; burden to business• Overuse; volume “treadmill”• Inconsistent care; fragmentation• Lack of coordination• Payment model at odds with countering rising
costs• Data held “close to the vest”
15
The Hope
16
• Improve access
• Improve health outcomes
• Reduce cost
The Strategy: Follow the Money
• To optimize the healthcare dollar and improve health
outcomes, both government and private payers are
(gradually) shifting from volume-based
reimbursement to value-based reimbursement
17
Emerging Payment Models
• Bundle payments• Pioneer ACO• MSSP• ACO: Advanced payment model• FQHC• Medical Homes• Value based payment models-P4P• State engagement models – for integration of dual
eligible individuals
18
Is Reform Possible?
• Able to manage risk• Integration• Engaged physician leadership• Effective health information management• Time to change – pace
19
Our Areas of Focus• Population Health
– PCMH
• Care coordination for high-risk and high-frequency patients
• Wellness, prevention, Choosing Wisely
• Payment reform
• Provider Engagement
• Health IT
• Integration

PHM INITIATIVES

System PHM Initiatives
• Transformation Oversight Committee– Oversees work of committees in 3 areas:
• Care Integration• Informatics• Finances/Contracting
• Initial focus on COPD • Led by Chief Strategy Officer
24
System PHM InitiativesProblem Focus Areas Patient Risk Levels
Low-risk 40-55% Patients without medical problems; goal is to keep healthy and connected to health system – focus on prevention and wellness
Area 2: High utilization management Pt engagement, extensivist team, palliative care; care transitions
Area 1: Disease-focused ambulatory case management Pt engagement; care coordinators, extensivist team; care transitions
Area 3: Ambulatory quality/P4P Cancer screening, BP, lipid, A1C control, etc.; in-office/between-visit/other pt contact components
Sickest and/or highest-utilizing 5-10% Advanced CHF, COPD, IHD, DM, asthma, cancer, psychosocial
Rising-risk 40-50% Patients with less severe chronic illnesses or behaviors that significantly elevate morbidity and mortality risks – HTN, DM, hyperlipidemia, smoking, obesity

HEALTHCARE IT AND ACCOUNTABLE CARE
“Health IT is essential not only to accountable care organizations (ACO) but also healthcare in general”
Kathleen Sebelius, MPA,
Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services
Population Health Management
• Fundamental to every major healthcare reform initiative today– Patient-Centered Medical Home– Accountable Care Organization
• EHRs alone are not sufficient to manage populations effectively
• Provider groups and health systems that automate the spectrum of population health functions will be best positioned to succeed
Healthcare IT and ACOsThe Critical List
• Population identification - attribution• Identification of care gaps – Decision Support • Risk Stratification• Cross Continuum Care management • Quality and Outcomes measurement• Patient engagement• Telemedicine • Mixing claims and clinical data • Predictive modeling • Clinical information exchange
PATIENT ENGAGEMENT

Bridging the gap between home, hospital , office and beyond…
CARE COORDINATION
Chronic Disease Registries
High Risk Patients for Re-admission
Care Plans Across the Continuum
• Developing a disease management section in the EMR navigator
• High risk patients flagged • Using problem lists and linked episodes • Viewed by IP, AMB, and ED.
