Defining the New Revenue Model The mere formulation of a problem is far more essential than its solution, which may be merely a matter of mathematical or experimental skills. To raise new questions, new possibilities, to regard old problems from a new angle requires creative imagination and marks real advances in science. --Albert Einstein

Reform Payment Models Pay-for-Performance • Pay-for-Performance • A strategy to offer incentives to providers for delivering higher quality care as measured by selected evidence-based standards and procedures. • • Multiple pilots and demonstrations in progress for past several years • • CMS has collaborated with many private insurers and other agencies to launch demonstration projects • Typically limited in scope • Promotes reimbursement for quality, access, efficiency and outcomes Source: PricewaterhouseCoopers | DHG Healthcare
Reform Payment Models Value-Based Purchasing • Value-Based Purchasing • A strategy that holds a percentage amount of reimbursement at risk that providers earn back by performing high in proven quality processes and outcomes across several domains. • 2013 measures include AMI, CHF, Pneumonia, Certain Surgeries, HAI • Additional measures may be added in 2014 and beyond • Hospitals that do not meet standards receive deductions of: • -1.0% in 2013 -1.5% in 2016 • -1.25% in 2014 -2.0% in 2017 and after • -1.5% in 2015 Source: PricewaterhouseCoopers | DHG Healthcare
Reform Payment Models Bundled Payments • Bundled Payments • A strategy of issuing a single payment for episodes of treatment that would be shared by both the hospital and physicians involved in delivering treatment for a patient • • ACE Demonstration Project includes cardiac and orthopedic conditions (acute care only). Has shown significant savings, esp in device and implant costs (gainsharing). Participants keep 25%. • CMS pilot to launch in 2013. Expected to expand ACE Demonstration by including acute care episode plus 3 days before and 30 days after. Expected to include 8 ‘conditions’ including chronic conditions. • Incentives undefined but expected to include shared savings. • Requires integration between physicians, hospitals and post-acute providers.

Reform Payment Models Shared Savings Shared Savings A strategy whereby providers receive a percentage of reduced claims expenses as a result of improved efficiencies and quality of care. • Must meet quality standards AND achieve cost savings to earn bonus payments. • Timing, criteria, and calculation of bonus undefined (in legislation). • PGP Demonstration Project Source: PricewaterhouseCoopers | DHG Healthcare
Reform Payment Models Global Payments / Capitation Global Payments / Capitation A strategy whereby all services and fees are included in one payment that manages the patient across the entire healthcare delivery system. CMS makes one payment to the accountable organization for the total cost of each enrollee Adjusted for region and patient risk category Basis of payment in PCMH and ACO models Based on Dartmouth Atlas regional cost studies Source: PricewaterhouseCoopers | DHG Healthcare
Readmission Penalties • Beginning in FY2013 DRG payments may be reduced for hospitals experiencing excessive risk-adjusted readmissions • Projected $7.1B in reduced Medicare payments, 2013-2019 • Pilot underway in 14 hospitals for implementation • 3 ‘conditions’ in 2013 (AMI, CHF, Pneumonia) • 4+ more in 2015 Capped Decreases in Hospital Medicare Reimbursement for Excess Readmissions FY 2011-12 FY 2013 FY 2014 FY 2015
HAC Penalties • Beginning in FY 2015 hospitals in the highest 25% of hospital acquired conditions will receive a reduction to DRG payments • Eligible hospitals will receive 99% of normal payment • Potential for expanding HAC policy to other facilities including inpatient rehab and SNF • 1.7 million HAC’s annually; approx. 2% of hospital stays Top Issues That KeepCEOs Up At Night Future Distribution Strategy Reducing HACs Overcoming Specialist Shortage Maximizing ED Capacity, Throughput Maximizing Hospital Employed Physician Value Source: Lucado, J. et al

Developing a Best Practice Approach to Revenue Transformation • Create communication channels between clinical and financial leadership • Measure impact of new payment models on finances of clinical improvement efforts • Implement tracking mechanisms to evaluate economics of clinical improvement efforts • Develop education programs for clinical /financial leaders • Assess gaps in current infrastructure that prevent successful risk contract execution • Determine trends in local market that suggest near-term movement towards risk by employers and payors • Benchmark risk-contract economics against known examples • Proactively assess finance impact of risk on top 10 current service lines • Buy/build tools to allow for ongoing measurement of financial impacts • Utilize this new financial information in contract negotiations

The Change Paradigm “ Bottom line, if you attempt to use the same care delivery model moving forward, faced with the magnitude of reductions in forecasted revenue, you will go out of business. — Michael Sachs Chairman, Sg2 “
Wisdom of the Dakota Indians ARE WE BEATING A DEAD HORSE? The tribal wisdom of the Dakota Indians, passed on from one generation to the next says that when you discover that you are riding a dead horse, the best strategy is to dismount. However, in modern business, often other strategies are tried with dead horses including the following: • Purchasing a stronger whip. • Changing riders. • Appointing a committee to study the horse. • Arranging to visit other sites to see how they ridedead horses. • Lowering the standards so that dead horses can be included. • Reclassifying the dead horse as “living impaired”. • Harnessing several dead horses together to increase the speed. • Providing additional funding to increase the dead horse’s performance. • Doing a productivity study to see if lighter riders would improve the dead horse’s performance. • Declaring that the dead horse carries low overhead, and therefore should remain in use. • Hoping that the dead horse will come back to life. • Wishing for the “GOOD OLD DAYS”.
