  32. Inpatient per case KPA LTCH/IRF Home Health ClinicCare Outpatient Inpatient Hospice SNF $ 11.1 Billion 4.1% $ 29.7 Billion 11.0% $ 18.4 Billion 6.8% $ 31.7 Billion 11.8% 90.6 Billion 33.7% $ 10.1 Billion 3.7% 77.6 Billion 28.8%

  33. Inpatient per case KPA

  34. Top 32 Care Process Families account for 80% of the opportunity Inpatient per case KPA Top 10 Care Process Families account for over 40% of the opportunity Y-Axis = Percent of total resources consumed Cumulative Care Process Family % of total resources Individual Care Process Family % of total resources X-Axis = Care Process Families by resources consumed (High to Low)

  35. Inpatient per case KPA 3 1 PCI Y- Axis = Internal Variation in Resources Consumed 4 2 Bubble Size = Case Count X Axis = 2012-2013 Variable Direct Cost Bubble Color = Clinical Domain 35

  36. Inpatient per case KPA Grouped by APR DRG – Severity Score ~ $20,000 difference in Average Direct Costs between “highest cost” provider and “lowest cost” provider for patients with identical intermediate level severity scores Bubble Size = Case Count for provider X Axis = Average Variable Cost per Case for provider Bubble Color = APRDRG - Severity Score

  37. Inpatient per case opportunity analysis Mean Cost per Case = $20,000 Dr. J. 15 Cases $60,000 Avg. Cost Per Case $35,000 x 25 cases = $875,000 opportunity $40,000 x 15 cases = $600,000 opportunity Total Opportunity = $600,000 Total Opportunity = $1,475,000 Total Opportunity = $2,360,000 Total Opportunity = $3,960,000 Cost Per Case, Vascular Procedures

  38. Inpatient per case opportunity Grouped by APR DRG – Severity Score Waste reduction opportunity is calculated based on bringing the cases in each severity level of each APR-DRG down to the mean of the severity level Bubble Size = Case Count for provider X Axis = Average Variable Cost per Case for provider Bubble Color = APRDRG - Severity Score

  39. Inpatient per case opportunity*Physician variation perspective * This $97 MM is based on the impact of variation in MD practice across all types of relevant inpatient care units

  41. IP per case ordering waste CV W&C GI Neuro Sciences Musculo-skeletal General Med Resp-iratory Primary Care Surgery Oncology Peds Spec Mental Health Care Process Families e.g., Heart Failure Care Process Families e.g., Pregnancy Care Process Families e.g., Lower GI Disorders Care Process Families e.g., Obstructive Lung Disorders Care Process Families e.g., Spine Disorders Care Process Families e.g., Joint Replace-ment Care Process Families e.g., Infectious Disease Care Process Families e.g., Diabetes Care Process Families e.g., Urologic Disorders Care Process Families e.g., Breast Cancer Care Process Families e.g., Peds CV Surg Care Process Families e.g., Depression

  42. IP per case ordering waste Sources of ordering variation within a case • Diagnostics • Laboratory tests • Diagnostic imaging studies • Therapeutics • Therapies (e.g., respiratory, physical, et al) • Substances (e.g., antibiotics, blood products) • Clinical supply chain (e.g., prosthetics, stents, synthetic bypass grafts, heart rhythm devices)

  43. Sources of per case ordering waste Symptoms Screening & Preventive Prevention and Treatment Knowledge Assets Management of Preventive, Ambulatory, Acute Medical, Invasive & PAC Modules Health Maintenance and Preventive Guidelines Diagnostic Work-up Diagnostic algorithms Utilization Management Knowledge Assets Diagnostic Algorithms, Triage Criteria, Referral & Intervention Indications Home(Patient Portal) Triage to Treatment Venue Triage Criteria Admission Order Sets Admission Order Sets Clinic CareNon-recurrent Clinic Care Chronic Invasive Medical Invasive Surgical Acute Medical IP Med-Surg Acute Medical IP ICU Indications for Intervention Treatment and Monitoring Algorithms Indications for Referral Standardized Follow-up Substance Selection Pre-Procedure Order Sets Substance Preparation Substance Selection Invasive* Subspecialist Supplementary Order Sets Chronic Disease Subspecialist Clinical Supply Chain Management Bedside care Clinical ops procedure guidelines and patient injury prevention * To Invasive Care Processes Procedure Treatment and Monitoring Algorithms Post-procedure Care Post-procedure Order Sets Bedside care practice guidelines, risk assessment and patient injury prevention protocols, bedside care procedures, transfer and discharge protocols Post-acute care order sets IP (SNF, IRF) Home health Hospice Discharge

  44. IP per case ordering waste opportunity * The $57 MM is based on the impact of variation in ordering of tests and services from ancillary (non-patient-care) departments (e.g., lab, imaging, pharmacy, therapies, supply chain, central services) adjusted by APR-DRG severity level

  45. Reducing per case ordering waste • Order sets. Evidence-based order sets for the Care Processes in the Pareto list to reduce variation in the ordering of simple diagnostic tests (lab, imaging) • Indications. Evidence-based indications and cost information to standardize utilization • Imaging tests (e.g., MRI, CT, US, nuclear scans) • Substances (e.g., utilization criteria for blood, antibiotics, total parenteral nutrition) • Major clinical supplies (e.g., joint prosthetics, cardiac and vascular stents, synthetic bypass grafts, heart rhythm devices, neurostimulators)

  46. Reducing per case ordering waste • Health Catalyst advanced applications. • High-level Care Process map laying out the scientific flow • Aim Packet with 2-5 Aim statements • Cohort definition to support the Aim Packet • Common metrics plus additional outcome, process and balance metrics to support the Aim Packet • Starter visualizations such as dashboards, scorecards, and/or interactive drill down reports
