National Quality Forum Measure Gaps Care Coordination Report Lauralei Dorian, NQF ldorian@qualityforum.org
Priority-Setting for Healthcare Performance Measurement: Care Coordination Lauralei Dorian
Care Coordination Project Objectives • Guided by a multistakeholder committee, the project will consider and prioritize opportunities to measure care coordination in the context of a broad “health neighborhood.” • The project considered coordination between safety-net providers of primary care and providers of community and social services that impact health. • The work is intended to broaden the current scope of care coordination performance measurement to account for the influence of social determinants such as housing, transportation, and the environment.
Care Coordination Project Objectives, Continued • Interoperable data systems that link health and human services information could provide rich new sources for performance measurement; the project will explore this potential as well as challenges associated with sharing data for the purposes of care coordination. • The project will identify existing measures and measure concepts that could successfully measure care coordination in targeted areas. • A final report will provide recommendations on high-leverage opportunities and next steps for measure development, endorsement, and use.
Definition of Care Coordination “Care coordination is the deliberate synchronization of activities and information to improve health outcomes by ensuring that care recipients’ and families’ needs and preferences for healthcare and community services are met over time.” • Developed based on AHRQ Care Coordination Measures Atlas, the NQF Preferred Practices and Performance Measures for Measuring and Reporting Care Coordination, and committee feedback.
Related Efforts in Care Coordination and Measurement: NQF Consensus Development Process • 2006: Care Coordination Framework identified five domains essential to the future measurement of care coordination: • Healthcare home • Proactive plan of care and follow-up • Communication • Information systems • Transitions or handoffs • 2010: Preferred Practices and Performance Measures for Measuring and Reporting Care Coordination • 2013-current: Care Coordination 3-Phase Measure Evaluation Project
Comprehensive Assessment Subdomains • Document care recipient’s current supports and assets • Assess function • Assess social needs • Assess behavioral health needs • Assess medication management needs • Assess health literacy • Measure care recipient/family level of activation/engagement • Capture preferences and goals • Estimate health risk level and customize care coordination approach appropriately • Continuous holistic monitoring
Shared Accountability Subdomains • Plan of care documents all members of the care team, including community providers • Plan of care assigns responsibilities for meeting care recipients’ goals and care team members accept them
Linkages/Synchronization Subdomains • Shared documentation and understanding of care coordination goals by clinical providers, community providers and care recipient/family • Appropriate community services identified and contacted based on needs assessment • Care recipient/family successfully engages with and utilizes community services • Bi-directional communication to facilitate coordination • Frequent and accurate communication to solve problems
Progression Toward Goals Subdomains • Resolution of unmet needs, as documented in ongoing assessment • Services congruent with person-centered goals and preferences • Maximized health outcomes and functional status • Reduce care recipient risk through interventions • Increased care recipient/family level of activation
HIT Needed to Support Paradigm Shift • The increasing use of HIT can support a paradigm shift in care coordination, ultimately yielding substantial improvements in health care delivery. Currently, significant HIT efforts are underway: • AHRQ is currently gathering information from the field on what is needed to enable electronic quality measurement, particularly testing criteria for Meaningful Use Stage 3. • ONC’s priorities include promoting more consistent use of data fields within care plans, matching data capture through electronic health records with actual clinical workflows, and the use of clinical decision support. ONC plans to effectively design and implement HIT workflows across provider types.
Data Standards to Support Care Coordination and Plan of Care • In order for data standards to enable interoperability, specification of a minimum data set around the care team roster is needed. The HL7 Clinical Document Architecture (CDA) supports the representation of the care team and allows for relationships between all care team members to be captured. This specifically includes: • Electronic contact information for each team member, the professional role of each provider, and the familial and legal relationship of family care team members to the care recipient. • HL7 CDA also allows for relationships between those care team members and other data elements and activities in the care plan.
Front-Line Perspective on Interoperability: Alliance of Chicago • Alliance of Chicago encourages the use of technology to coordinate services in ways that effectively reduce burden: • EHR’s with longitudinal records and clinical decision support that includes prompts for non-clinical, community-based elements, prompts for information about a care recipient’s visit, and reminders to review previous entries to determine necessary follow ups. • EHR’s are also connected to a comprehensive and up-to-date list of community resources generated by University of Chicago students • Data linkage with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) alerts providers when there is a public health concern or disease outbreak in the community that may be relevant to the individual seeking care
Additional Committee Recommendations: Priorities for Care Coordination and Performance Measurement • Priority measure domains reflect the need for person-centered, accountable care. • Innovation is desired, but stronger evidence of effective care coordination practices is fundamental for measure development. • HHS should measure its own progress in reducing fragmentation experienced by front-line providers. • Target care coordination efforts based on individuals’ needs.
Additional Committee Recommendations, Continued • Accelerate the work of culture change to achieve person-centered, team-based care. • Continue standardization of data elements to support care planning and measurement. • Balance payment incentives carefully to fulfill all three aims of the NQS.

FACA Updates • As of 07/07/2014
FACA Updates: HITPC MU WG 06/20/14 HITPC MU WG will be presenting the suggestions from 4 (Provider, Hospital, ACO, Vendor) panels back to HITPC’s next meeting in July. • See following the slides for comments by each panel
FACA Updates: HITPC MU WG 06/20/14, cont’d… Panel 1 (Provider) Suggestions: • Shift ToC to MU 3 • 2-year cycle too fast • Require implementation (demonstrate use), but not specific percentage for everyone • Focus on outcomes-based measures • Focus on interoperability, but not % • Focus on reporting to registries and public health agencies
FACA Updates: HITPC MU WG 06/20/14, cont’d… Panel 2 (Eligible Hospitals) Suggestions: • Meaningful use is transformative and increases transparency, but standardization for exchange is needed • Standards needed to exchange information across state boundaries • Need more time to get ready for stage 3 • Vendors not ready • Need time for recipients to get ready for exchange • Need time to learn from stage 2 • Need alignment of CQMs
FACA Updates: HITPC MU WG 06/20/14, cont’d… Panel 3 (Advanced Models of Care) Suggestions: • Momentum needs to continue • Exchange in the local community is most important • Additional and more stable funding to support the public health informatics infrastructure will be critical to sustaining public health gains • Electronic lab reporting and syndromic surveillance will lead to greater capacities for early disease detection and more real-time population health assessments during public health emergencies • Build greater HIT capabilities for immunizations and reportable conditions • Patient portals must accommodate a wide range of literacy and should provide access in preferred language and interoperability with assistive devices
FACA Updates: HITPC MU WG 06/20/14, cont’d… Panel 4 (Vendor) Suggestions: • Need more time to develop, test, certify • 18 mo lead time after all regs, specifications, tools finalized • Focus on high priority areas where infrastructure is needed (interoperability for care coordination and CQMs) • Policies to facilitate interoperability needed: • State regs • Patient matching • Alignment of CQMs • Allow 90-day reporting period for each new stage
FACA Updates: HITPC MU WG 06/20/14, cont’d… Overall Suggestions: • Prioritize information exchange for care coordination and patient engagement • Proprietary business interests impede exchange • Policies for exchange across state boundaries and patient matching are needed • There has been too much focus on the letter rather than the spirit of meaningful use • Need to avoid being overly prescriptive • Quality measure alignment is needed Next Steps • • Present back to HIT Policy Committee on 7/8
FACA Updates: HITPC Cert/Adoption WG 06/26/14 The workgroup considered draft recommendations brought forward by a subgroup Recommendations to publicize the results of the ONC workforce development programs and studies to identify core competencies have been accomplished Information was presented on recommendations pertaining to program development to meet the emerging needs of the HIT workforce. However, no direct action by ONC was reported on these recommendations: • Recommend additional funding for new workforce programs that create a workforce development pipeline with a focus on inclusion of rural, underserved learners, veterans and middle school students • Recommend funding studies of the impact of HIT on the workforce
FACA Updates: HITPC Cert/Adoption WG 06/26/14, cont’d… Members decided to repeat the two above recommendations, urging ONC to take advantage of several existing opportunities. The subgroup carried out its recommendation that ONC host a SOC input process from the HIT community. The Department of Labor is currently soliciting comments due July 21, 2014. • The subgroup is compiling a report with the intent of adding a new code for health informatics under health care occupations. • Members agreed to ask the HITPC to support the new health informatics SOC.
FACA Updates: HITPC Cert/Adoption WG 06/26/14, cont’d… Two new recommendations were presented for the workgroup’s approval for submission to the HITPC: • Recommend that the focus on the health IT workforce is retained in the new HITPC workgroup structure as part of health IT implementation. • Recommend that the ONC continue to connect with other federal agencies and key stakeholders to further the workforce needs required to establish and sustain an effective and efficient interoperable health IT ecosystem. Members agreed on the two new recommendations without making comments. Next Steps: • Minor changes win the slides for the submission of the recommendations to the HITPC in July.
