Outline • Maximizing the Value of Predictive Modeling: A Health Plan Perspective • Care Management Challenges: • Understand Population Care Management Needs • Identify • Stratify • Triage • Care Management Model, Implementation, Process Efficiencies • Intervene • Care Management Programs • Evaluate • Conclusions
Care Management Challenges: Understand Population Care Management Needs • Cost distribution and trend over time • Quantitative assessment • Population assessment • Qualitative assessment – clinical cost drivers based on healthcare cost (direct cost) • Total cost assessment – direct & indirect costs • Qualitative assessment – clinical cost drivers based on healthcare cost and personnel cost (indirect cost)

Understand Population Care Management NeedsPopulation Assessment Population Assessment is an analysis of claims and membership data to determine characteristics of a given population (Network, Region, Group) that might affect the population’s interaction with the health care system
Population AssessmentMajor Analysis Variables Propensity to Utilize Index – The average number of episodes of illness for a member month Episode Seriousness Index – A measure of the average cost to treat the categories of illness experienced by a population Illness Burden – A measure of the level of illness within a group determined by multiplying the propensity to utilize index by the Episode Seriousness Index
Population AssessmentMajor Analysis Variables, Continued Provider Efficiency Index – A measure of the efficiency to treat a specific episode of illness determined by dividing the cost to treat the specific episode by the average cost for the category of illness PMPM Cost Index – An index that measures the PMPM submitted costs for a population determined by multiplying the Illness Burden by the Provider Efficiency Index

Understand Population Care Management NeedsTotal Cost Assessment • Direct costs are dollars paid out for medical treatment • Indirect costs are labor resources lost due to illness Direct Costs= Inpatient + Professional/Outpatient + Pharmacy Indirect Costs= Sick Leave + Presenteeism + Family & Medical Leave + Short Term Disability + Long Term Disability + Turnover + Worker’s Compensation

Identify & Stratify Members for Care ManagementValue of Working High Cost Member Report: Cost Drivers
Identify & Stratify Members for Care ManagementDeveloping a Stratification Index (SI) • Why? • 1) To reliably identify higher cost, highly impactable members • 2) To enhance prioritization of members for nurse-intervention management • How? • Use predictive output from MEDai • Select key MEDai measures to construct a composite score • Use the composite score as an index to stratify members • Focus on members with the highest index scores

Validating SI ScoreChronic & Preventative Gaps: Break Down by SI Score
Validating SI ScoreForecasted Cost Risk: Break Down by SI Score
Validating SI ScoreMover Identification • Movers are members who are likely to make the transition from low or moderate to high risk • Movers can be identified by comparing current vs. forecasted cost risk level • if a member’s current cost is less than $1,000 (Risk Level I) and is predicted to cost more than $25,000 (Risk Level V) • Do movers have higher index scores?

Triage & Intervene Members for Care Management NeedsImplementation • Predictive modeling using • MEDai, DCG, ETG • Rolling 12 months DCG explanation prospective model • ETG cost to supplement MEDai prediction • Developed SQL database containing MEDai, DCG, and ETG information • Improved processes/workflow • Easy and continuous access • Better documentation
Triage & Intervene Members for Care Management NeedsImplementation: Future Enhancements • Accreditation Analytics • Member non-compliance for HEDIS measures • Satisfaction profile • Geo-spatial Analytics (imputed race, vicinity to Centers of Excellence (COE) or efficient/quality providers) • Data Mining Analytics • Probability of engagement, segmentation profile • Psychosocial Profile • Speech Analytics • Indirect Cost Profile
Care Management Challenges: Evaluate Care Management Interventions • Basic research problem: measuring what would have happened vs. what actually happened • Methodologies: • Randomized Control Group • Population-Based Pre-Post Methodology • Predictive Modeling • Control Group Matching • Combination
