From This Presentation You Will Learn… I. PCMH – Standards Elements Factors and the Three levels II. MU – Principles Objectives and Stages III. The Processes for Achieving “recognition” and compliance IV. The Incentives and The Common Areas between PCMH and MU V. Challenges and Success – Experience from the Field
I. PCMH – Standards Elements Factors and the Three levels • PCMH – What is it? • Standards Elements and Factors • The Three Levels • The Process • The Incentives
What is Patient Centered Medical Home? • Ideal model of care delivery - in other words… Providers get what they need, when they need it, in the manner they want Patients and providers work as partners in managing their health Care is coordinated and the right people are talking to each other
What is Patient Centered Medical Home? National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) and the PCMH • Set of standards • 3-tiered “recognition” process • Level 1 • Level 2 • Level 3 • Requires completing an application • Requires providing adequate documentation to show evidence that specific processes and policies are in place

II. Meaningful Use – Principles and Objectives • MU – What is it? • Principles and Objectives • Eligibility • The Incentives • The Process
What is Meaningful Use? ARRA specifies three requirements for “meaningful use” • 1) Usingcertified EHR technology in a meaningful manner (which includes e-prescribing for EPs [eligible providers]) • Connecting a certified EHR in a manner that provides for the electronic exchange of health information to improve the quality of care; • Using the technology to submit informationto CMS on clinical quality measures and other measures selected by CMS.
What is Meaningful Use Stage 1? A Improve quality, safety, efficiency, & reduce health disparities ( 15 ) B Engage Patients and Families ( 3 ) C Improve Care Coordination ( 3 ) D Improve Population and Public Health ( 3 ) E Ensure Adequate Privacy & Security Protection for PHI ( 1 ) 5 Meaningful Use Care Goals & Objectives MU 25 Measures / Reporting Requirements • Must run for 90 consecutive days (year1) • Then for full year thereafter • Attestation for 2011 (year1) • More formalized reporting 2012
Draft Clinical Quality Measures Required for 15 Specialties Proceduralist/Surgery (6) Cardiology (10) Pulmonology (8) Endocrinology (9) Oncology (6) Primary Care (29) Pediatrics (9) OB/GYN (9) Neurology (5) Psychiatry (6) Opthamology (3) Podiatry (3) Radiology (7) Gastroenterology (6) Nephrology (6) MU Quality Measures / Reporting Requirements • Must run for 90 consecutive days (year1) • Then for full year thereafter • Summary measures in 2011 (year1) • More detail required in 2012
Eligibility Medicare Doctor of Medicine Doctor of Dentistry Dental Surgeon Doctor of Osteopathy Podiatrist Optometrist Chiropractor Medicaid Doctor of Medicine Doctor of Dentistry Nurse Midwives Nurse Practitioners PAs in PA led FQHC PAs in Rural Health Clinic
How Much is the MU Incentive Payment? • For Medicaid: Potentially as high as $63,750* over 6 years • For Medicaid Eligible Providers, Year 1 can start as early as 2011 or as late as 2016 • For Medicare: Potentially as high as $48,000 • $44,000 if not located in a HPSA • Can start as early as 2011 or as late as 2014 • Last payment year is 2016 • Fiscal penalties for not adopting EHR technologies by Medicare providers start in 2015 (% reduction in fee schedule) * Note: Pediatricians with 20-30% Medicaid patient volume are capped at $42,500 15 Source: CMS, US DHHS
Differences Between Medicaid and Medicare Incentive Payments • Medicaid participation is voluntary • No Medicaid financial penalties to Medicaid providers for not adopting • Maximum # of payment years: Medicaid = 6 Medicare = 5 • Medicaid incentive payments are potentially higher than for Medicare • Time period for which incentives are available extends to 2021 (compared to 2016 for Medicare); can start as late as 2016 (2014 for Medicare) • No “meaningful use” required in Year One (either 2010 or 2011, State will decide) – Adopt, Implement or Upgrade Source: CMS, US DHHS
The Incentive Structure Stage of Meaningful Use Criteria by Payment Year Etc.
The Process: MU Compliance Steps Given the rules are not finalized, specifications are not yet published and official certification of EHRs/modules will not occur until later this year, What should we be doing right now? • Determine who in your practice is an eligible professional • Get knowledgeable about the measures • Assess readiness (systems, workflows, gaps in data capture and financial implications) • Talk with your vendor about plans to support MU • Form a Team to set priorities • Develop Workplanto begin implementation and roll out
