6 General Reaction The Medicare ACO shared savings proposed regulation is an important first step towards implementing a program from the ACA that attempts to improve quality of care while reducing Medicare Expenditures. However, substantial changes are needed to make the program attractive to potential participants and operationally viable.
7 Summary of Key Provisions
8 Summary ACOs will continued to be paid based on FFS They can receive a shared saving payment if: actual spending is below a benchmark, and if they meet quality performance requirements CMS proposes two options: One-Sided Model Years 1 & 2: Shared savings only Year 3: Shared savings and losses Minimum Savings Rate: 2.0%-3.9% Shared savings: 50%/50% (bonus cap of 7.5%; loss cap of 5%) 25% withhold to be returned after 3 rd year Two-Sided Model Years 1, 2, & 3: Shared savings and losses Minimum Savings Rate: 2.0% Shared savings: 60% ACO/40% CMS, but share first dollar savings (bonus cap 10%; loss cap of 5% Y1, 7.5% Y2, 10% Y3) 25% withhold to be returned after 3 rd year
9 Eligible Participants Allows a number of provider types to participate: Professionals (MDs, DOs, PAs, NPs, or CNS) in group practices Networks of individual practices Partnerships or joint ventures between hospitals and professionals Hospitals employing physicians or other clinical professionals Other groups of providers as CMS determines appropriate 9
10 Application Process Groups of providers will submit an application (to be developed) to CMS Three-year agreement Not all potential ACOs will be automatically accepted into the program No limit on number that can participate Estimated at ACOs 10
11 Governance and Structure 75% control of the governing body must be held by ACO participants and control must be proportionate for each participant Each ACO participant must have at least one representative on the governing body, chosen by the ACO participant organization that he or she represents At least one Medicare beneficiary served by the ACO but otherwise unconnected to the ACO 11
12 Leadership & Management ACO s operations must be managed by an executive officer, manager or general partner Clinical management oversight must be managed by a full-time senior-level medical director who is a board-certified physician, licensed by the state in which the ACO operates and who is physically present on regular basis in an ACO location 12
13 Beneficiaries Assignment Beneficiaries will be retrospectively assigned Based on primary care services utilization data Prior 3 years No Lock-In Notification Provider must notify beneficiaries: They are participating in the ACO program The patient s claims data may be shared within ACO (but patient may opt-out) 13
14 Quality Measures CMS proposes 65 quality measures in 5 domains: 1. Patient experience of care 2. Care coordination 3. Patient Safety 4. Preventive health 5. At-Risk populations Performance Score: Equal weighting of five domains into one overall quality score For year 1, ACOs required to collect and submit data. For subsequent years, CMS will set performance benchmarks that must be met to quality for incentive payments Those with higher scores are eligible for greater incentive payments 14

17 Shared Savings Calculation Example 17
18 Begin Here American ACO has 60,000 beneficiaries ACO s Shared Savings Bonus ($2,400,000 25%) = $1,800,000 $10,000 per capita benchmark $9,800 per capita minimum savings rate (MSR) (2%) $9,700 per capita actual spending How an ACO Bonus Payment is Calculated (Track 1, Year 2) $600,000 remains in withhold $200/beneficiary $100 savings/beneficiary Up to 50/50 Shared with CMS Based on Quality Score Quality Score = 80% Calculate Shared Savings Quality Score (80%) x (50% Shared Savings) = 40% CMS $200 per bene ACO Receives ($40/bene) x (60,000 benes) = $2,400,000 Minus 25% CMS Shared Savings Bonus ($260/bene) x (60,000 benes) = $15,600, ($100 per beneficiary) x 40% = $40/beneficiary to ACO CMS receives $200/ bene + ($100/bene x 60%) = $60/bene TOTAL = $260/bene 18
19 Concluding Take-Aways 19
20 The Bottom Line. $600,000 withhold $2,400,000 ACO Share TOTAL SAVINGS $18,000,000 $15,600,000 CMS Share In Reality: 87%/13% Split 20
21 Timeline Expenditure Benchmarks 6 months claims runout 3 months analysis % of the baseline benchmark 30% of the baseline benchmark 60% of the baseline benchmark Third Quarter 2012 Baseline benchmark is established January 2012 Program begins 21
22 Investment Estimate of ACO Investment CMS (based on a range of an estimate of ACOs) AHA** (200-bed, single hospital system ) AHA ** (1200-beds, 5-hospital system) Average* $1,800,000 $6,400,000 $14,000,000 *Average amounts represent estimated costs for the start-up and ongoing costs for year 1. **Draft estimates based on pending case studies. Includes start-up and ongoing costs for a typical year. Some costs may have already been incurred or allocated to other budgets. 22

28 PGP Demo Concepts Medicare Fee For Service continues as before Only risk is Business Risk for the PGP If PGP is able to reduce the rate of growth of Medicare spending for the cohort under its care compared to a local comparison, CMS will share part of its savings with PGP Savings is a function of expenditure control and health status changes Budget neutral project for CMS Meeting Financial Target= Gate Once Open, PGP s portion dependent on meeting Quality Measures

32 Common Basis for Strategies among the PGP Groups 1. Focus: High Cost Areas Components of Medicare Expenditures For Billings Clinic (base year 2004) Inpatient 40% Hospital OP 24% Part B 22% SNF 7% Home Health 3% DME 4% Reduce avoidable admissions, ER visits, etc 2. Focus: Chronic Care & Prevention High prevalence and high cost conditions Provider based chronic care management Care transitions Palliative care Financial Savings are INPATIENT driven. Quality Measures are OUTPATIENT driven.
33 Overview of the innovative payment/delivery model Physician Group Practice Demonstration Testing the concept that physician group practices can better coordinate care (Part A&B) than other delivery models to reduce rate of growth in per-capita expenditures while improving quality Types of organizations: 2 MSGP, 2 AMC, 5 IDS, 1 PHO Shared Savings Model: FFS continues; CMS shares % of calculated savings Rate of growth of PGP compared to same county comparison Individually risk adjusted (HCC) Attribution by plurality of office visits, All-Specialty Retrospective, blinded to both organization and beneficiary, changes yearly Absolute Threshold for demonstrating savings: 2%, Cap: 5% Sharing is 80% only on savings >threshold but < cap Data feedback intended on quarterly basis 32 Quality measures (outpatient only, process + outcomes) create a gate for 50% of shared savings payment
34 Impact Clinical interventions universally applied to all patients, payer-neutral Increased focus on population management and chronic disease Increased outpatient utilization, decreased inpatient utilization. Examples: 40% reduction of HF hospitalizations ($3M+ revenue) for only 15% pop 20% reduction in 1 day psych hospitalizations Planned visits, improved PCP access to reduce emergency visits Chronic condition management for anticoagulation, HF, lipids, diabetes, & 24/7 nurse triage Risk stratification with case management for complex patients Improved coordination for transitions in care Significant spending on EMR optimization & quality reporting/documentation All 10 orgs with significant quality achievement (year 4, all >92% of targets) Savings: Year 1: $9.5M, 2 org $7.3M --Year 2: $17M, 4 orgs $13.8M Year 3: $32.3M, 5 orgs $25.3M --Year 4: $37.8M, 5 orgs $31.7M 4 yr. Savings Total= $97M, $86M shared with 6 orgs, 1 org captured >50% total 4 th year savings payment reflects 1.7% of net patient expenditures For most, savings < reduced revenues and business costs of implementation Risk adjustment was significant factor in performance Quarterly data proved difficult to interpret; 18 months True patient engagement did not occur due to the attribution status
35 Non-Risk Adjusted Expenditures Per Beneficiary Per Year Expenditures $14,500 $14,000 $13,500 $13,000 $12,500 $12,000 $11,500 $11,000 $10,500 $10,000 $9,500 $9,000 $8,500 $8,000 $7,500 $7,000 $6,500 $6,000 $5,500 BY PY1 PY2 PY3 PY4 Group1 Group2 Group3 Group4 Group5 Group6 Group7 Group8 Group9 Group10 Program Year

38 Advice about implementation Attribution needs to be at level where care is managed Prospective and transparent to provider and patient (engagement) Large % of Billings Clinic s patients were seen on specialty outreach National Comparison Targets and absolute growth (ACA language) Using rate can perpetuate historical regional clinical/payment variation Threshold needs to be rational, attainable 95% CI is a statistical constraint that may discourage adoption/reform 5,000 lives 4.65% threshold! (Medicare growth= % year) Assures random variation doesn t contribute, but doesn t acknowledge negative random variation Should risk corridors (+ and -) exist? Consider withhold, pay at end of 3 year contract to assure savings Sharing needs to be first dollar if threshold met Risk Adjustment integral to process; allow for adequate growth Risk increases with adoption of EHR and improved care coordination Organizations demonstrating quality attract risk (Billings Clinic had same per capita growth rate as the most successful organization in PGP, yet did not demonstrate savings under formula) Quality Measures need to focus on high cost/ high volume diseases National Standardization of measures EHR certification should require ability to document and report this data Timely Data Turnaround
