  2. Objectives • What is OPQC? • Partners, Results Next projects • Transformation and Return on Investment • What are Other States Doing? • OPQC Publications Barbara Rose

  3. What is OPQC? • Mission through collaborative use of improvement science methods, reduce preterm births and improve outcomes of preterm newborns in Ohio as quickly as possible. • Initial projects’ AIMS – • Neo Reduce late onset (>72 hours) blood stream/CSF infections in infants 22-29 weeks gestational age by 50% • OB Reduce scheduled births at 361 to 386 weeks without a medical indication 20 maternity hospitals (47% of Ohio births) • Teams – 44: 24 level 3 NICU’s, 20 OB delivery hospitals Barbara Rose

  4. Ohio Partners • Ohio Department of Health (Vital Statistics & Children Family Health Services) • ODJFS Ohio Medicaid/CMS • AAP, ACOG, March of Dimes - Ohio • NICHQ • Academic medical centers in Ohio • Participating health care provider teams at 24 Ohio hospitals Barbara Rose

  5. Reduce inappropriate scheduled births at 36.1 to 38.6 weeks20 maternity hospitals (47% of Ohio births) Barbara Rose

  6. All Ohio births: 39-41 wk births pink 36-38 wk births blue Source: custom analyses of ODH vital statistics birth certificate data Barbara Rose 6

  7. VON data Late onset bloodstream infection in Ohio infants, 22-29 weeks gestation Barbara Rose

  8. Health Care Transformation and Return on Investment • OPQC’s budget comprises three primary components: program administration, quality improvement consultation and centralized data management. OPQC annual budget is approximately $500,000 per year divided 40% program administration, 30% quality improvement consultation and 30% centralized data management. • Both of the OPQC projects resulted in statistically significant improvements in outcomes and reductions in costs. • With approximately $20 million in overall cost savings demonstrated by OPQC, a large, positive return-on-investment has been achieved. • As OPQC expands to the other 53% of Ohio births, an additional $10 million in saving could be achieved (total $30 million annual savings). Barbara Rose

  9. Investment Case for Statewide Perinatal Improvement OB - Since initiating this OPQC project, more than 14,000 births have moved from occurring prior to the due date to full term (39 to 41 wks). Approximately 400 NICU admissions and undetermined number of infant deaths have been avoided. Compared to the baseline period before this project, this work, by 20 large Ohio maternity hospitals and their staffs represents a major, positive transformation of obstetrical care in Ohio and approximately $10 million in annual Ohio health care cost savings. Barbara Rose

  10. Investment Case for Statewide Perinatal Improvement NEO - A study of three large Ohio hospitals cost accounting systems showed that preventing infections in a typical NICU with 200 annual, preterm admissions would result in 5 fewer infection-related deaths, 131 fewer bed days and $459,000 in cost savings. For Ohio overall this translates to approximately $10 millionin annual health care cost savings. Barbara Rose

  11. OPQC Next steps (Oct 2011-June 2012) • OB projects • Antenatal Corticosteroids in OPQC hospitals • Spread of 39week scheduled delivery project statewide (if funding awarded) • Neo projects • Continued focus on reducing infections • to improve reliability of catheter care • Add Human Milk project Barbara Rose Rose 11

  12. Other States re public partnerships & perinatal improvement? • TN GOCCC Gov’nr Office Child Care Dev’t Oversight but not data Dept of Health & Tenncare (Medicaid) • MA Dept. of Health- data sharing for QI and VS use, • NC Dept. of Health • IL Working on partnering w DOH and Medicaid- sep. offices, restrictions on using VS data • LA Dept. of Health support VON data, PT physician coordinator • FL Barbara Rose

  13. What have we accomplished? • Focus on population health • 50% of births; 80% of infants 22-29 weeks • All Level 3 nurseries in the state • Target improved care and improved access to care • Focus on continuum of care • Prenatal (obstetrics) and neonatal care and decisions for mother/infant dyad • Collaboration between health care and public health • Vital Statistics and Medicaid • Using birth certificate data to measure practice • Publically reported quality measures (Ohio House Bill 197) • National attention • March of Dimes, Vermont Oxford Network State Leaders Group, Am. Academy Pediatrics neonatal quality measures group, • Improved care • Thousands women per year move from 36-38 weeks to 39-41 wks • Better care of very premature infants with central IV catheters Barbara Rose
