1 Avoiding Confusion between Payment and Quality Items on the New IRF-PAI, Part II: Other Implications Troy Hillman Manager, Analytical Services Uniform Data System for Medical Rehabilitation 2016 Uniform Data System for Medical Rehabilitation, a division of UB Foundation Activities, Inc. FIM, UDSMR, and the UDSMR logo are trademarks of Uniform Data System for Medical Rehabilitation, a division of UB Foundation Activities, Inc. Objectives Contrast CARE-based functional items with the FIM instrument Define the NQF-endorsed functional quality measures for use in the IRF QRP Differentiate competing measures 2 1

2 Contrast CARE-Based Functional Items with the FIM Instrument The most prominent difference between the CAREbased functional items and the FIM instrument that may affect interpretation of quality is the scales: CARE-Based Functional Items 06. Independent 05. Setup or clean-up assistance (Helper SETS UP or CLEANS UP) 04. Supervision or touching assistance (VERBAL CUES or TOUCHING/STEADYING) 03. Partial/moderate assistance (Helper does LESS THAN HALF the effort) 02. Substantial/maximal assistance (Helper does MORE THAN HALF the effort) 01. Dependent (Helper does ALL the effort) 07. Patient refused 09. Not applicable 88. Not attempted due to medical condition or safety concerns FIM Instrument 7 Complete Independence (Timely, Safely) 6 Modified Independence (Device) 5 Supervision (Subject = 100%) 4 Minimal Assistance (Subject = 75% or more) 3 Moderate Assistance (Subject = 50% or more) 2 Maximal Assistance (Subject = 25% or more) 1 Total Assistance (Subject less than 25%) 0 Activity does not occur 3 Contrast CARE-Based Functional Items with the FIM Instrument Measurement of the same functional construct, but with additional items: Item 39M of the existing IRF-PAI is labeled as Stairs, which includes going up and down twelve to fourteen stairs (one flight) indoors in a safe manner While this may suggest that the patient must try and perform all twelve to fourteen stairs in order to complete the assessment of this item, a review of The IRF-PAI Training Manual shows that certain exceptions already in place for this item allow the patient to perform this function on only four to six stairs, with or without a device 4 2

3 Contrast CARE-Based Functional Items with the FIM Instrument Measurement of the same functional construct, but with additional items: The proposed new functional items for quality measurement of stairs include: GG0170M, 1 step (curb) GG0170N, 4 steps GG0170O, 12 steps IRF staff are being asked to evaluate the patient s functional independence for each item independently 5 Contrast CARE-Based Functional Items with the FIM Instrument Measurement of the same functional construct, but with additional items: A similar issue is present with existing item 39L, Locomotion: Walk, Wheelchair, and the following new items: GG0170I, Walk 10 feet GG0170J, Walk 50 feet with two turns GG0170K, Walk 150 feet GG0170R, Wheel 50 feet with two turns GG0170S, Wheel 150 feet 6 3

18 Summary Are you aware of the NQF process and the different NQF-endorsed functional quality measures? Are you prepared for the October 2016 implementation of s IRF QRP functional measures? Will you be able to differentiate performance between quality measures based on the CARE tool and those based on the FIM instrument? Will you be able to explain which quality measures better represent your facility s performance?
