1 ITAP TT1 MC - Glaucoma Sept 17 ITAP MANAGED CARE WORKING GROUP TASK TEAM 1: CHRONIC DISEASE CONDITIONS (CDL s) GLAUCOMA Explanatory note to the Managed Care minimum reporting data specification (excel spreadsheet) The aim of the project is to measure the value added by managed care organisations, by means of capturing, measuring and reporting on clinical process indicators to demonstrate the clinical outcome/s achieved. Hence this is by no means a representation of the full protocol, policy or guideline on Glaucoma management. Additionally, these process indicators and or outcomes achieved will be reported on within the Annual statutory returns. 1

2 ITAP TT1 MC - Glaucoma Sept 17 Meetings and discussions were held with industry representatives and subject matter experts prior to finalising the minimum data specification. 1) Goal The value of managing a disease is to establish measurable goals that result in quality of care. (Diagnosis, treatment and care of all beneficiaries should be in line with evidence base medicine, cost effectiveness and affordability). Maintain the individuals visual function and related quality of life at a sustainable cost. Lower IOP and slow rate of visual field deterioration. Target IOP is specific to each individual. Prevent complications and optimally manage the progression of disease. 2) Identification of beneficiaries that have Glaucoma / or registered on a managed care program Please ensure the relevant consent has been obtained and confidentially maintained when obtaining personal health information. Identification of beneficiaries registered on the program may include Registered on chronic and or disease management programs ICD-10 Codes or other relevant clinical coding Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical Classification System (ATC Class) National stock numbers (State stock code) 3) Minimum data specification: Process indicators, clinical outcomes and data The level of Active Management of Glaucoma will depend on the nature of the contract, the level of services covered and the fee structure for those services, e.g. screening, medication, procedures etc. 2

3 ITAP TT1 MC - Glaucoma Sept 17 The minimum required fields for the effective collection of appropriate data to demonstrate the value of the managed care interventions for the below mentioned categories are detailed by way of process indicators (see attached spreadsheet). Diagnosis The diagnosis of Glaucoma is made by the specified registered practitioner. o Congenital Glaucoma o Closed Angle Glaucoma o Open Angle Glaucoma Investigations o Tonometry o Fundus examination o Gonooiscopy o Disc and Nerve Fibre layer analysis o Disc Photography o Optical coherence tomography o Central corneal thickness measurement Discipline Type The service providers must be registered with their relevant statutory bodies and as indicated by discipline coded list provided by BHF. 4) Treatment Glaucoma Congenital Glaucoma Closed Angle Glaucoma Open Angle Glaucoma Surgery / Medication Medication, Laser and / or Drainage / Cataract Surgery Medication (first line / Second line) Drainage surgery 3

4 ITAP TT1 MC - Glaucoma Sept 17 Medication: - S01E - Antiglaucoma preparations and miotics * Please note these recommendations do not replace the published algorithms, PMB entitlements etc. It is a means of measuring the value and quality of care provided. * The above is merely the initial phase of the ITAP Task Team 1- CDL project and as such is not exhaustive. Full details can be seen on the accompanying excel spreadsheets. 5) Clinical Outcomes measures Number of all cause admissions Number of admissions for Glaucoma Number of Beneficiaries treated on medication alone Number of Beneficiaries that had surgery Number of beneficiaries that had repeated surgery / theatre Cost of medication pre-surgery versus post-surgery * Information in regards to ICD-10 coding may be found on the following site 6) Reporting (MCO and Scheme) *Definitions will be the same utilised within the Annual statutory returns see Circular 10 of For full details All reports to be submitted to the Scheme for inclusion in the Annual Statutory Returns. Please complete the section relevant to the service rendered by your organisation. 4
