Covey, The Speed of TrustBehaviors that Promote Trust • Character • Talk Straight • Demonstrate Respect • Create Transparency • Right Wrongs • Show Loyalty • Competence • Deliver Results • Get Better • Confront Reality • Clarify Expectations • Practice Accountability • Character & Competence • Listen First • Keep Commitments • Extend Trust

  7. Strategy for Success – The “Win / Win” Opportunity Solve someone else’s problem and they will solve yours • Physicians – become more data and cost conscious • Medicaid – pursue clinical quality • Dept of Mental Health – help Medicaid manage utilization and preserve access • Advocates – work together to identify acceptable limits and interventions • Vendors – combat inappropriate use

  8. Pharmacy Management “Guiding Principles” • Manage through data, not intuition or anecdote. • Monitorfor both planned and unplanned consequences. • Focus management interventions on good evidence, quality treatment guidelines and compliance with medication plans. • Don’t establish the primary goal as “cost savings”. Allow cost savings to be the natural result of evidence based care, quality and adherence to treatment guidelines; • Don’t discriminate between physical and behavioral drugs, i.e. don’t limit behavioral drugs more than you would physical drugs. • Don’t punish the many, for the sins of the few. Target your Interventions to outliers who need it, not to compliers who don’t.

  9. Missouri’s Behavioral Pharmacy Management • Helps improve prescribing practices • Identifies clinicians whose prescribing patterns deviate from current clinical best-practices • Quality Indicators are developed from • continuous review of medical literature • consensus guidelines • nationally recognized clinical panels

  10. Child BPM Program • 1,367 Missouri children who triggered BPM QI’s in May 2011 and were eligible in October 2011 and April 2-12 were studied. • From May 2011 to April 2012, behavioral pharmacy costs fell 11% for this group. • During this time, total pharmacy costs fell 7.5%. • Most children triggering polypharmacy QI’s in May 2011 were no longer triggering them in April 2012.

  18. Missouri Initiative for Children in Foster Care • There areapproximately 10,750children in state custody at a given time • Data pulled • Top diagnoses were Major Depression, Adjustment Disorder, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder • 28% were on a psychotropic medication

  19. Missouri Initiative Behavior Pharmacy Management Program • 20% of children prescribed a medication triggered at least one quality indicator • 6.65% were prescribed 5 or more psychotropics • 3.03% were prescribed two or more antipsychotics • 6.05% had multiple prescribers for 45 or more days

  20. Past and Current Initiatives • 2009 - 2011 • Provided Integrated Summary of Care to Foster Care Case Managers with pharmacy recommendations • Foster Care Case Managers did not feel qualified to question prescribers regarding recommendations. • Currently • For all children under 5 years old • PA all psychiatric meds • Case review by child psychiatrist

  21. Next Missouri Initiative • Current focus has been on the development of a second opinion review process • Initially addressing children on more than 5 psychotropics • Plans to address use of multiple antipsychotics as well • Identification of prescriber with outlier prescriptions

  22. Missouri Initiative • Review of records by Board Certified Child/Adolescent Psychiatrist • Via teleconference Reviewer discusses best practices for prescribing of patients • Prescriber continues to be monitored to assess for change in prescribing

  23. Missouri Initiative • Strategies Under Consideration • Data monitoring/system development • Clinical edits • Medication • Therapies • Access to Clinical Consultation • Functional Outcomes

  24. WebNeuro Online Standardized Assessment 1) 45 Questions assessing anxiety, depression, and stress 2) 13 Standardized Cognitive Tests 3) Standardized scoring for risk, resilience, and social skills 4) Decision support for diagnosis and treatment 5) 40 minutes to complete, three minutes to receive report

  25. Digit Span Motor Tapping Choice Reaction Time Memory Recognition Emotion Identification Verbal Interference Switching of Attention Delayed Memory Recognition Go/No-Go Emotion Recognition Continuous Performance Test Maze Integrative Neuroscience Assessment[home computer] Questionnaires Questions [Feeling and Self Regulation] (<5 min) Cognition Objective Cognitive Tasks [Emotion and Thinking] (30 min) “I respond best to positive feedback” “I Find it difficult to relax” English, Hebrew, Mandarin, Arabic, Spanish, Dutch, French, German

  26. WebNeuro Report: Patient’s Sores • Scores range from 0-10, with 10 being better • Red shading=  clinically significant problem (score of 1) • Orange shading = problem of borderline significance (1.5 to 3) • Gray shading = healthy average range  (3.5 to 7.5) • Green shading= above average/superior (8 to 10)

  27. Example Reporting of Cognitive Capacities Reporting averages scores from tests commonly used to assess specific cognitive and emotional capacities into a psychological-level score. In example above, Negativity Bias in assessment of negative outlook on world and a validated marker for disorder risk.
