3 REPORT OVERVIEW The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is one of several payers participating in your state s multipayer patient-centered medical home (PCMH) initiative. As a payer participant, CMS is providing participating practices with a feedback report that provides data related to quality of care, utilization, and Medicare expenditures for Medicare fee-for-service (FFS) beneficiaries assigned to your practice. We hope that you will use the data in this report for benchmarking and quality improvement purposes. A Technical Reference Guide has been created to provide more information on the methodology that was used to produce the report. The Technical Reference Guide also includes examples of the tables and graphs that are used in the report, accompanied by how to read me boxes explaining the content of the tables and graphs. This document can be found at All results are derived from Medicare claims submitted by your practice and other providers and facilities from which your assigned Medicare FFS beneficiaries received services. At the top of the tables and graphs are page numbers that will guide you to specific pages in the Technical Reference Guide that contain more detail about the methodology and other technical specifications used in the analyses. This report includes your practice s results for three data categories: Utilization measures Summary information for hospital and emergency room (ER) utilization measures Medicare expenditures Summary information on the share of care that you provide your Medicare FFS patients, average total Medicare expenditures per beneficiary, and average Medicare expenditures by type of service Quality of care measures Summary information about selected quality of care measures, such as LDL- Cholesterol (LDL-C), HbA1c screening, retinal eye examinations, neuropathy screening, and total lipid panel screening. For these measures, total lipid panel screening is among beneficiaries with heart disease, and HbA1c testing, retinal eye exam, LDL-C screening, and neuropathy screening rates are among beneficiaries with diabetes. Results contained in this report are based on Medicare FFS beneficiaries assigned to your practice for July 1, 2011 to December 31, Your practice has been assigned into one of two practice categories (high or low) based on the average Hierarchical Condition Category (HCC) risk score of your assigned Medicare FFS beneficiaries. Similarly, the other participating practices in the state have been grouped in the same way. This report compares your outcomes to the outcomes of practices that are in the same HCC risk score category. Please see the page 2 in the Technical Reference Guide for more information on the HCCs and the calculation of the HCC risk score. Based on the average HCC risk score of your assigned Medicare FFS beneficiaries, your practice is a "Low HIGH HCC" HCC practice. practice. Therefore, Therefore, the comparison the comparison group data group shown data shown in this report in this is report based is on based data on of data other of participating other participating practices in your state that also were defined as a HIGH "Low HCC" HCC practice, practice, based based on on the the average average HCC HCC risk risk score score of of their their assigned assigned Medicare Medicare FFS FFS beneficiaries. beneficiaries. 1

4 UTILIZATION AND EXPENDITURE MEASURES This section shows the utilization and expenditure results for your practice and the other practices participating in your state s PCMH initiative that also are in the same risk group category (hereafter, called the comparison practices). For more information on how the comparison group measures were calculated, see page 2 of the Technical Reference Guide. Table 1 presents utilization and expenditure measures for Medicare beneficiaries assigned to your practice and comparison practices between July 1, 2011 and December 31, During this time, Medicare FFS beneficiaries were assigned to your practice location based on the beneficiary assignment methodology. Results in Table 1 cover July 1, 2011 through September 30, Measures reported per 1000 beneficiaries re reported per 1000 beneficiaries assigned to your practice between July 1, 2011 and December 31, For more information, see the Technical Reference Guide: Information on beneficiary assignment--page 1 How to interpret this table page 5 Information on the utilization and expenditure measures pages 2-3 Table 1.

5 QUALITY OF CARE MEASURES This section shows the quality of care results for your practice and the other practices participating in your state s PCMH initiative that also are in the same risk group category (hereafter, called the comparison practices). For more information on how the comparison group measures were calculated, see page 2 of the Technical Reference Guide. Table 2 presents the percentage of Medicare beneficiaries assigned to your practice between July 1, 2011 and December 31, 2011 who received total lipid panel testing, LDL-C screening, HbA1c testing, retinal eye examinations, and neuropathy screening. These quality of care measures are annual measures; therefore, the numbers in the table indicate the % of beneficiaries within each disease category who received the quality measure between October 1, 2010 and September 30, Total lipid panel testing is among beneficiaries with heart disease. HbA1c testing, LDL-C screening, retinal eye examinations, and neuropathy screening tests are among beneficiaries with diabetes. For Medicare beneficiaries with diabetes, we also present two composite measures that include all four of the quality measures that apply to those with diabetes: % of beneficiaries with diabetes who had all 4 of the diabetes quality measures % of beneficiaries with diabetes who had none of the diabetes quality measures See the Technical Reference Guide page 3 and pages 9-14 for more information on the quality of care measures. Table 2. Quality of Care Measures: October 1, 2010 September 30, Quality of Care Measure (% beneficiaries with the disease) N assigned beneficiaries with claims-based diagnosis of diabetes % had HbA1c testing % had retinal eye examinations % had microalbumin screening tests % had LDL-C screening % had all 4 diabetes process measures % had none of the diabetes process measures N assigned beneficiaries with claims-based diagnosis of ischemic vascular disease (IVD) % had total lipid panel test Your Practice (N beneficiaries) (N beneficiaries=212) Comparison State Low Practices HCC Practices (N practices=46) practices; (N beneficiaries) (N beneficiaries=631) % 92.3% 71.4% 56.4% 100.0% 60.7% 92.9% 80.3% 64.3% 32.3% 0.0% 2.7% % 69.7% 3

6 UTILIZATION AND EXPENDITURE TRENDS This section presents trends in utilization rates both before and after the start of the demonstration for beneficiaries assigned to your practice between July 1, 2011 and December 31, 2011, regardless of the number of months of enrollment in Parts A and B. We present trends for 8 quarters prior to the start of the demonstration (i.e., from 7/1/2009 to 6/30/2011) and for 1 quarter of the demonstration (7/1/11 9/30/11). Rates expressed per 1000 beneficiaries are per 1000 beneficiaries assigned to your practice between July 1, 2011 and December 31, Please see page 7 in the Technical Reference Guide for more information on how to interpret these trend graphs.

These are considered potentially avoidable ER visits. 7

23 QUALITY OF CARE TRENDS This section presents trends in quality of care measures both before and during the start of the demonstration, for beneficiaries assigned to your practice between July 1, 2011 and December 31, Because quality of care measures are, by definition, annual measures, we present trends for 2 annual time periods: a year that is completely pre-demonstration (7/1/2009 6/30/2010) and a year that contains one quarter of the demonstration (10/1/2010 9/30/2011). In future feedback reports, when a full year of the demonstration has been completed and we have a full year of demonstration data available, we will report a year of predemonstration quality measure results and a year of demonstration quality measure results, for comparison purposes. Please see page 8 in the Technical Reference Guide for more information on how to interpret these trend graphs. Figure 18.
