Health System
• The health care system can further benefit form the success of NeCST through:– Ability to communicate between organizations and across
jurisdictions– Ability to collect broader encounter data in a format that could be
incorporated in the EHR (i.e. consistent semantics and structure)
NeCST – BenefitsProviders
• Reduce number of interfaces required for adjudication.
• Send electronic information to public and private sector payers in a consistent messaging format
Consumer
• Increased speed & reliability of claims processing, while also reducing paper based claims processing
• Reduce delays in obtaining claims information, and contribute to the goal of secured and appropriate sharing of patient data
Next Steps NeCST HL7 Generic Claims, Pharmacy, Chiro-

Public Awareness
Better health information for better health, e.g. :– Maclean’s cover stories – Extensive media coverage of fact-based reports—
part of the public debate– Beyond today’s crisis: regions use indicators as
springboard for communicating with public– FPT reporting– Orientation of board
members and staff– Annual report now a
university textbook

Drugs - The Information Needs
What we know• Drug expenditure
continues to rise; this is not just Canada
• Prescribed drug expenditure is driving the increase in overall drug expenditure
• Level of drug spending, growth rate and public share vary across jurisdictions
What we don’t know• How does drug utilization
compare among Canadian populations in terms of: accessibility, appropriateness, effectiveness, efficiency, safety?
• Is drug spending optimal within the continuum of care?
• What strategies are most effective in controlling costs while ensuring high quality patient care?

Drugs - The Information Needs
• How does drug utilization compare among Canadian populations in terms of: accessibility, appropriateness, effectiveness, efficiency, safety?
• Are differences in the prescribing of drugs due to
differences in Prescribers, underlying morbidity, or differences in insurance coverage?
• Is drug spending optimal within the continuum of care?
• What strategies are most effective in controlling costs while ensuring high quality patient care?
Expenditures: The Tip of the Iceberg
• Base– Standards– Data systems
• Below the water– Claims level data
Start with what we have - populate over time
Initial set of indicators • Drug Expenditure trends in Canada
– Total drug expenditure as a percentage of healthcare spending
– Prescribed/non-prescribed drug expenditure as a percentage of total drug expenditure
– Hospital drug expenditure as a percentage of total hospital expenditure
– Prescribed drug expenditure per capita
– Publicly/privately insured and out-of-pocket expenditure as a percentage of prescribed drug expenditure
– Average cost per prescription claim
• Volume changes and mix in Prescribed Drugs in Canada – Percentage of total expenditure and volume of claims by
therapeutic class
• Intensity of Drug Use in Canada – Average number of claims per claimant
– The percentage of the population that has made at least one claim
– Average number of Defined Daily Doses (DDD) per 1000 residents per day
National Prescription Drug Utilization Information
System(NPDUIS)
NPDUIS
• ... to provide accurate and timely national prescription drug utilization information to support public drug programs in the establishment of sound pharmaceutical policies, and the effective management of Canada’s public drug benefit programs
• The potential to complement and to support other national initiatives such as the Common Drug Review, Best Practices and Post-Marketing Surveillance
• Other stakeholders, e.g. academic researchers
• In collaboration with PMPRB
NPDUIS
• CIHI and the PMPRB work collaboratively to develop and to maintain the National Prescription Drug Utilization Information System (NPDUIS), each organization taking the lead in areas in which that organization has the expertise/ experience.
NPDUIS - The Scope Current:
• Prescription claims level drug data – Pseudonymous prescription claims level drug data – From publicly financed drug benefit programs in
Canada
• Additional supporting data: – Formulary and Drug Product data
– Health Canada Drug Data base– F/P/T Formulary Information– ATC/DDD
– Population statistics – Information on Drug Benefit Plans/Programs
NPDUIS - The Scope
Expansion of NPDUIS:
• Prescription claims level drug data
– Pseudonymous prescription claims level drug data
– From privately financed drug benefit programs in Canada
Uses and Disclosures of Information from NPDUIS
• The permitted uses of NPDUIS data are set out in the CIHI NPDUIS PIA
• CIHI will disclose NPDUIS data in accordance with CIHI’s Principles and Policies for the Protection of Personal Health Information, and subject to Agreements between CIHI and the jurisdictions to disclose data under their authority
Uses and Disclosures of Information from NPDUIS
• CIHI will use NPDUIS data to produce:– An annual statistical report of Pan-Canadian
statistics– Reports accessible through CIHI’s web site
for authorized and registered users – Longitudinal and other analytical studies to
address specific health related questions– Conduct analyses for third parties through
ad hoc data/information requests

QUERY &
ANALYSIS
Formulary and Drug Product Module• Provide longitudinal contextual and statistical
comparative information regarding coverage of drug products and other benefits on public formularies across the F/P/T Jurisdictions
• Support analytical and reporting requirements of the NPDUIS
Claims Module
• Provide longitudinal descriptive and statistical comparative information regarding drug utilization related to publicly funded drug benefit plans across the F/P/T Jurisdictions
Population Statistics Module
• Provide contextual and statistical comparative information regarding demographics of the populations of interest to NPDUIS
• Population statistics will be used as denominators to enhance comparability of drug utilization statistics or indicators
• Geographic information (i.e. postal code) will be used to provide socioeconomic and demographic information
Plan Information Module
• Provide longitudinal contextual and comparative information regarding public federal/provincial/territorial drug benefit plans/programs across Canada
• Relevant references/links to drug benefit plan/program information across the NPDUIS will be essential to support the interpretation of the information derived from each of the other modules, or information derived at the system level, i.e. from the integration of the modules
Drug Utilization Informing on:
• National Pharmacare
• National Formulary
• Catastrophic drug coverage/program
• Expanded drug coverage
• Disease management programs
• Primary care reform
• Outcome Measures– How healthy are Canadians? – How healthy is our healthcare system?
