  1. Pay for Performance Macaran Baird, MD, MS Professor and Head University of Minnesota Department of Family Medicine and Community Health University of Minnesota Medical Center Family Medicine Residency Program / Smiley’s Clinic

  2. State of Minnesota is adopting P4P to direct care to top performing clinics.

  3. MN Dept. of Employee Relations • Started P4P with 4 tiers of performance • Applies to all state employees • Increased co-pays for clinics with decreased performance

  4. Data problem will exist for sometime • Some systems use billing data that can be inaccurate • Chart audits are often flawed and expensive • Works best if based upon patient registries

  5. Chronic-Disease-Management Results Patients 2003 2004 2005 2006 Used asthma medications 71% 74% 76% 91% Kept blood pressure <140/90 57% 60% 64% 68% Used depression medications 49% 51% 49% 42% Met diabetes 1 (looser targets) 12% 12% 16% 20% Met diabetes 2 (tighter targets) NA 4% 6% 9% MN Community Measurement Project

  6. Top Scoring Clinics • Adult asthma treatment • Lakeview Clinic: 99% ages 5-56 were enrolled and had appropriate medications • Cancer screening combo • HealthPartners Medical Group: 65% ages 50-80 were up to date on all appropriate cancer screenings • High blood pressure • Mayo clinic: 86% ages 46-85 with high blood pressure had it under control

  7. Childhood vaccinations • Mayo Clinic: 95% ages 2 and under received vaccinations • Chlamydia screening • United Family Practice Health Center: 62% of sexually active women ages 16-25 had a test for chlamydia

  8. Diabetes care • Camden Physicians and Winona Clinic: 23% with diabetes ages 18-75 achieved 5 treatment goals • Depression treatment • Sioux Valley Clinic: 63% ages 18+ diagnosed with new depression episode were treated with antidepressants and had 3 follow-ups

  9. Medicare quality pilot program planned • 3-year demonstration to compensate physicians for care to patients with chronic conditions • Physicians must be in small or medium practices and provide care to 50 Medicare patients • They will submit data annually on 26 quality measures • 1st year: “pay for reporting” to establish baseline measures • Subsequent years: practices earn $ based on performance on quality measures

  10. IOM urges Medicare to adopt pay for performance • Institute of Medicine released a report in 9/06 recommending a pay-for-performance system • Current system of fee for service encourages volume rather than efficiency and quality • Congress should reduce base Medicare payments and use money saved to fund P4P • Report acknowledges fewer than 20 studies about P4P which came to differing conclusions about its effectiveness

  11. For Department of Family Medicine and Community Health • Next $500,000 in income from practice can arrive via P4P or adding 5,000 visits! • Therefore, we’re learning to reach P4P targets, clarifying our data, and improving care
