Objectives Observe the development of a clinical pathway for breast cancer Gain an understanding of the steps involved in developing a clinical pathway Understand the variables factored into clinical pathway development Witness the dialogue and discussion involved in creating a clinical pathway
Simulation The exercise you are about to observe is a simulation of a pathway development process in breast cancer Clinical pathways are intended to streamline physician prescribing patterns to improve patient outcomes while also reducing the overall cost of care The steering committee for pathway generation involves clinicians with both breadth and depth of knowledge and experience with the particular cancer type, in this case, breast cancer This program is typically double-blinded, meaning the sponsor does not know the panel and the panel does not know the sponsor to ensure candid and honest feedback and discussion
Mock Pathway The mock pathway simulation was developed to increase transparency of the clinical pathway development process for interested stakeholders To remove any bias from the mock pathways steering committee clinical decision making, the programs have historically been double-blinded in which the steering committee members are blinded to the interested stakeholder and the stakeholder is blinded to the specifics of the participants This program is being recorded for the purposes of producing a final report, after which the recording will be destroyed It is the intent of this design to generate candid feedback regarding your opinions and experience
Value-based Care in Breast Cancer Treatment
Switch from Volume-based to Value-based Care: Improving Patient Health Outcomes while Reducing Cost Volume-based Value-based Fee-for-service reimbursement High quality not rewarded No shared financial risk Acute inpatient hospital focus IT investment incentives not seen by hospital Standalone care systems can thrive Regulatory actions impede hospital-physician collaboration Value = outcomes/cost Payment rewards population value: quality and efficiency Quality impacts reimbursement Partnerships with shared risk Increased patient severity IT utilization essential for population health management Scale increases in importance Realigned incentives, encouraged coordination Adapted from: American Hospital Association. http://www.hpoe.org/second-curve.shtml.

Value-based Care Reimbursement APM = alternative payment model; MIPS = merit-based incentive payment system; QP = quality payment. The Society for Post-Acute and Long-Term Care Medicine. 0. https://paltc.org/macra. Accessed August, 07.
Oncology Care Model (OCM) Improve health outcomes and produce higher quality and lower cost of oncology care through improvements in patient-centered comprehensive care Comprehensive coordinated cancer care Enhanced payments Quality improvement driven by data /7 access to care Patient navigation Improve care coordination Care management payment Episode based Performance based Application of meaningful and timely data https://innovation.cms.gov/files/slides/ocm-overview-slides.pdf
OCM Payment Model Medicare Fee-for- Service Payments Episodebased Payment Performancebased Payment Total Payment $60 per month per beneficiary for the 6-month period beginning with chemotherapy initiation Intended to finance care transformation requirements Based on the difference between the expected costs and the actual costs of an individual practice Practices must report on quality, communication, coordination, experience, and outcomes Must exceed minimum quality threshold to be eligible for payment https://innovation.cms.gov/files/slides/ocm-overview-slides.pdf
Welcome Panelists

Simulation The purpose of this exercise is to simulate a national payersponsored pathway development process in breast cancer Based on your experience, you have been selected as a network member to serve on the steering committee to create the pathway The sponsoring payer s intent is for this to be a cooperative pathway development process that takes into account efficacy, toxicity, cost, and quality The audience is interested in not only observing the academic process of pathway development, but also your insight regarding barriers and incentives for network provider pathway adoption
Mock Pathway The mock pathway simulation was developed to increase transparency of the clinical pathway development process for interested stakeholders To remove any bias from the mock pathways steering committee clinical decision making, the programs have historically been double-blinded, in which the steering committee members are blinded to the interested stakeholder and the stakeholder is blinded to the specifics of the participants This program is being recorded for the purposes of producing a final report, after which the recording will be destroyed It is the intent of this design to generate candid feedback regarding your opinions and experience

Welcome Back Panelists
Considerations During Pathway Development
Pathway Development Collaboration between payer and provider: Develop pathway based on currently available treatments Discuss what factors are associated with treatment preferences and inclusion/exclusion (eg, efficacy, safety, practice economics, patient burden, MOA, disease characteristics, etc) Facilitate participating physician consensus using the highest level of evidence Intent to define minimum regimens to cover 80% of eligible patients
Pathway Development (Cont d) Collaboration between payer and provider: Allow room for individualized medicine and physician discretion for best clinical practice Provide an efficient means of measuring and communicating compliance Identify potential issues with pathway adoption/compliance overall and with specific therapies Provide incentive for compliance, creating a win-win-win scenario for patients, physicians, and the payer All pathways validated by external sources such as ASCO, NCCN, etc ASCO = American Society of Clinical Oncology.
The Golden Rules Choice of treatment should always be guided by efficacy if clinically relevant If efficacy between therapeutic alternatives is equal, then toxicity might drive choice When efficacy and toxicity are similar among regimens, economics should drive utilization
General Rules of Pathways A clinical trial is always compliant and the preferred therapy when available Palliative care and hospice are reasonable at any time for the appropriate patient It is expected and is good clinical medicine for up to 0% of patients to be treated off pathways The treatment provided should be consistent with the intent of the pathway
Pathway Development for Metastatic Triple-negative Breast Cancer
Pathway Creation First-line mtnbc What are the most important parameters that you consider for patients with mtnbc? Overall survival PFS Response rate Time to response Duration of response Depth of response Toxicity Symptom relief Sites of metastases Other mtnbc = metastatic triple-negative breast cancer; PFS = progression-free survival.
Pathway Creation First-line mtnbc (Cont d) What is the role of sequential single-agent versus combination chemotherapy? What is the impact of adjuvant therapy selection on choice for metastatic treatment? What is the impact of adjuvant therapy response on choice for metastatic treatment? mtnbc = metastatic triple-negative breast cancer.
