1 2004 Health Care Quality Report

2 2004 Health Care Quality Report Executive Summary November 2004 Blue Cross Blue Shield/Blue Plus of Minnesota First Plan of Minnesota HealthPartners Medica Metropolitan Health Plan PreferredOne UCare Minnesota MN Community Measurement is pleased to present the 2004 Health Care Quality Report. This year s report covers nine clinical topics and includes over 50 individual measures relating to treatment of asthma, depression, diabetes and hypertension; immunizations for children and adolescents, well care for infants; and screening for breast cancer, cervical cancer and Chlamydia infection. Optimal Diabetes Care (patients meeting all recommended treatment targets to decrease cardiovascular risk) 1 is reported for the third year. Other quality measures are based on HEDIS (Health Plan Employer Data and Information Set) definitions. The report highlights both medical group excellence and continued opportunities for improving care. A primary objective of this report is to provide reliable information to support medical group quality improvement. An equally important objective is achieving greater health care transparency. This report is an important first step. Overall results, including medical group results, will be shared with the public in November. Medical groups strongly support the objectives of this report. The Institute of Medicine Report, Crossing the Quality Chasm, states, Between the health care we have, and the care we could have lies, not just a gap, but a chasm. Health care systems, designed to treat acutely ill patients, less consistently provide high quality care for chronic conditions. Medical advances occur at a continuously increasing pace, yet take years to become standard care. Opaqueness, complexity, fragmentation and variability characterize today s health care system. Without reliable comparative information, quality improvement remains incremental at best and our health care system will continue to fall short of its potential. Medical groups will find this report useful to inform and guide systems and deliver better patient care. Patients will have access to the most extensive, understandable information on health care quality ever. This information will serve to enhance the physician-patient partnership and better patient care will be the result. Optimal Diabetes Care results are available for the third year. This quality measure puts patients at the center of the assessment. Twenty percent or more of patients with diabetes at Crossroads Medical Centers, PA, Fairview Clinics, Lakeview Clinic, Northwest Family Physicians, and Superior Health Medical Group reach all treatment goals for decreasing risk of cardiovascular complications: HbA1c at or below 8.0, LDL-cholesterol under 130, blood pressure under 130/85 mm hg, do not use tobacco and take daily aspirin. Camden Physicians Ltd., Mayo Clinic, and Health Services have twenty percent or more of patients with diabetes reaching all MN Community Measurement. All rights reserved.

3 treatment goals in their results prior weighting. An achievable benchmark has been established that will challenge all Minnesota medical groups to evaluate the care they provide and improve to the highest possible standard. Patients throughout Minnesota will be the winners. Methodology and environmental changes may impact comparability to 2003 results. Specifically, additional steps were incorporated into the member attribution process and medical groups were asked to validate the Tax IDs used to define their medical group. This process identified the need to split some of the medical groups into new reportable medical groups for The data in this report were derived from administrative data provided to health plans and, in selected instances, review of randomly sampled medical histories by trained data abstractors. Rigorous processes have been put in place for data validation. Also, Stratis Health was invited and agreed to participate in MN Community Measurement. Their ability to provide data on Fee For Service Medicare patients meant that the following five medical groups achieved minimum sample size requirements to be reportable: Family Practice Medical Center Willmar; Hutchinson Medical Center; Minnesota Rural Health Cooperative, Regina Medical Center and Ridgeview Care System. Lastly, vaccine shortages could impact results for childhood and adolescent immunization measures. Overall rates were weighted by the number of eligible members corresponding to each unique combination of health plan, medical group and insurance product. Statistics involving aspirin use were restricted to patients over 40 years of age. Weighted computations corrected for any imbalance with respect to the number of eligible members vs. number of sampled members for each unique health plan, medical group and insurance product combination. Diminishing the hassle factor detracting medical groups from efforts to improve quality is a goal of MN Community Measurement. The Minnesota Department of Health has agreed to reduce the number of redundant charts audits previously required to report on health care quality. Key Findings Practice variation exists across all quality measures as the graph on the following page demonstrates. Such variation reflects opportunity for improvement. Rates of mammography and cervical cancer screening, asthma care and several components of diabetes care are the best and least variable. Quality measures relating to these clinical topics were among the earliest for which publicly reported health plan results have been available. Although not precisely comparable, all rates are increasing. Eye and renal screening in patients with diabetes HEDIS definitions change so an apparent decrease in rates from 2002 to 2003 likely does not represent a true decrease in screening. The proportion of patient with diabetes taking daily aspirin increased dramatically from 38% in 2001 to 68% in No medical group has the highest or the lowest rate across all measures.

5 MN Community Measurement is a success. Medical group cooperation, support for a more transparent healthcare system and commitment to delivering excellent patient care is an important part of the success. The new MN Community Measurement 501(c) organization, just created, will carry the work forward with a broadened coalition. We look forward to your participation, insight and guidance in this critically important part of transforming health care.
