  3. Data Quality Manager Data Quality Assurance Team DQMC Review List Data Quality Statement Department of Defense INSTRUCTION DQMC Program DODI 6040.40Military Health System Data Quality Management Control Procedures

  4. Team Key Players DQ Manager Resource Management Office (RMO) Group Practice Manager (GPM) Medical Expense and Performance Reporting System (MEPRS) Credentials Manager Budget Analyst/Uniform Business Office (UBO) Coding/Billing Supervisor Clinical Systems Administrator(s) DQ Team Roles and Responsibilities It is great to look – But are you working toward improvement?

  5. DQ team meets monthly Review Metrics/Compliance Issues Provide deficiency correction plan and estimated completion date (if applicable) Report monthly to Executive Committee Keep meeting minutes for at least two years Keep Review Lists for five years DQ Team Roles and Responsibilities It is great to look – But are you working toward improvement?

  6. DQ Team Responsibilities Cont… • DQMC Review List • Maintained locally • Tool to assist Military Treatment Facilities (MTFs) in identifying and correcting financial and clinical workload data problems monthly • Data Quality Statement • Facility Report Card • Specific information from the DQMC Review List • Commander signs/approves monthly • Forwarded through the regional office to AF DQ Manager • AF summary submitted to DQMC

  7. DQ System Architecture Clinical Data Mart Air Force TRICARE Ops Center Worldwide Workload Report Service Repository (BDQAS) WWR (Count Visits) DoD/VA SHARE MHS Data Repository MDR Coding Compliance Editor SADR (Encounters) CCE Standard Ambulatory Data Record Pop Health Portal SADR 1/SADR 2 PDTS ADM Extract Pharmacy Data Transaction System MHS Mart M2 EAS Repository TPOCS Billable Encounters WAM Count Visits & Raw Services EAS IV “Eligible” Encounters CPT Codes Units of Service

  8. Medical Expense and Performance Reporting System “MEPRS” -- Valuation EAS IV CRIS R E C O N C I L E Direct Care “Step Down” Money O U T P U T “E” – Support “D” – Ancillary “A” – Inpatient “B” – Outpatient “C” – Dental + “F” – Special Programs + “G” – Readiness Total Cost EAS-SA Manpower CHCS / WAM (Count only) RVUs RWPs CHCS SADR ICD/E&M/CPT SIDR DRGs Workload Defense Health Program Cost Accounting

  9. DQ Monitoring Tools • MHS Management Analysis and Reporting Tool (M2) • Used to extract data for PPS and AF Business Plan • Need to identify the M2 user and alternate in your facility • TMA WISDOM course • EASIV Repository • MEPRS data • Cost per data • 45 day processing period for current month • MEPRS Manager • TMA MADI Course

  10. Sample use of M2 • M2 Query:

  11. DQ Monitoring Tools Cont… • MEPRS Early Warning and Control System (MEWACS) • Trend analysis tool • Usage monitored by DQMC • Outlier indications • Review and correct data accordingly • Outliers are not always incorrect data

  12. DQ Monitoring ToolsCont… • BDQAS • Ambulatory and Inpatient Metrics • FY “Point-in-time" Comparison Reports • Updated on the 20th of the month • Display by MTF or MAJCOM • MTF Rankings, Transmission Reports (daily/summary), Top DRG, "Principal" Diagnosis and Procedure Reports, E&M by Provider Specialty • Data Quality Statement Reports • Compare and report values on DQ statement • Consistent reporting for questions: 1a-b, 2a-b, 4b-d, 8a-d, 9

  13. BDQAS

  14. How is your data used? • BRAC • Monitor efficiency of the healthcare system • Performance Based Budgeting – PPS • Medicare Accrual Fund • MTF Business Plans • Provider/Clinic Workload Productivity • Determine Level of Effort by all clinic staff • Reimbursements (TPC, Coast Guard, NOAA…etc) • Enable the Leadership to make informed decisions

  15. Provider File • Civilian (Outside) Provider File • Pharmacy/Lab/Rad are required to add the Civilian Provider to CHCS. Is there a local policy? • Create a local policy/standard operating procedure • Educate and train the ancillary staff • Use correct PSC linked to HIPAA Taxonomy • Provider naming convention, NPI, and DEA/License number should be strictly enforced and monitored • Last Name/First Name, Middle Name or Initial (if available) • Example: Smith / Johnson,S / Provider / Outside Provider • Recommend subscribing to HCIdea to research NPI/DEA/License # ; http://www.hcidea.org/

  16. Provider Profiles (con’t) Corrected fields in red: PROVIDER: SMITH,JOHN R Name: SMITH,JOHN R Provider Flag: PROVIDER Provider ID: SMITHJR NPI Type/ID: 01/0125899 Provider Class: OUTSIDE PROVIDER Person Identifier: Person ID Type Code: Select PROVIDER SPECIALTY: 001 (FAMILY PRACTICE PHYSICIAN) Primary Provider Taxonomy: 207Q00000X CMAC Provider Class: - Select PROVIDER TAXONOMY: HCP SIDR-ID: Location: CHAMPUS SUPPORT Class: OUTSIDE PROVIDER Initials: JRS SSN: 123-45-6789 (Not Mandatory) DEA#: BM1212127 License #: Incorrect fields in red: PROVIDER:SMITH, JOHN R Name:SMITH, JOHN R Provider Flag: PROVIDER Provider ID:Provider1234 NPI Type/ID: Provider Class:Doc Person Identifier:123-45-6789 Person ID Type Code: Select PROVIDER SPECIALTY: 517 (DENTAL CONSULTANT) Primary Provider Taxonomy: CMAC Provider Class: - Select PROVIDER TAXONOMY: HCP SIDR-ID: Location: CHAMPUS SUPPORT Class: OUTSIDE PROVIDER Initials: JRS SSN:123-45-6789 DEA#:99999999 License #:

  17. Potential Revenue Impact • Pharmacy makes up 70 to 80% of your facilities collections • Average # Claims for Outside Provider Scripts per month • Large Facility 1,500-3,000 • Medium Facility 700 • Small Facility 300 • Average Amount Billed per claim: $50 • If your provider file has 100 outside providers that issued at least one script per month with missing data in their profile: provider specialty codes, NPI (new requirement mid FY08), DEA #, provider name and ID. • Potential Loss is $5,000 in billable claims per month • Potential Loss is $60,000 in billable claims per year

  18. Provider Specialty Codes • Enter Provider Specialty Code (Be specific – notgeneral) • All PA’s – Provider Specialty Code 901 • All Technicians – Provider Specialty Code 900 • Independent Duty Medical Technician – Provider Specialty Code 521 • Lost revenue for codes 500 – 518 and 910 – 999 • Zero workload RVU • Prevent Encounter from flowing to TPOCS • Impact on PPS • Provider Specialties 910 and above are Clinical Services

  19.

Documentation includes documentation in the medical record, loose (hard copy) documentation or an electronic record of the encounter in AHLTA. (Denominator equals sample size.) • b) What is the percentage of E & M codes deemed correct? (E & M code must comply with current DoD guidance.) • c) What is the percentage of ICD-9 codes deemed correct? • d) What is the percentage of CPT codes deemed correct?

System Design, Development, Operations, and Education/Training (E.4.a). • a. # of AHLTA SADR encounters / # of Total SADR encounters Note: ALL SADR encounters including APV and ER BDQAS Note: This question is to gauge the penetration of AHLTA at our MTFs. It is understood that not all clinical modules are deployed in the current version of AHLTA.

  45. Data Quality Statement AHLTA Penetration • Question 10. CHCS software used during the reporting month to identify duplicate patient registration records. (C.2a)a)  What was the number of potential duplicate records in the reporting month? Internal Process Run the CHCS standard report – “Potential Duplicate Patient Search”. (For current advice about how to identify duplicate records, please see TRICARE Data Quality Web page: http://www.tricare.osd.mil/ocfo/mcfs/dqmcp/refs_regs.cfm

  46. Data Quality Statement Awareness • Question 11. I am aware of data quality issues identified by the completed Commander’s Statement and Review List and when needed, have incorporated monitoring mechanisms and have taken corrective actions to improve the data from my facility. (Electronic Signature Authorized)

  47. Take Away • DQ is not just the DQ statement. • Data needs to be accurate, complete and timely. • Front-end processes are CRITICAL to back-end success
