What Will the Affordable Care Act Look Like on the Front Lines?
• • • • • • • Increasing measurement of quality, efficiency & value Public reporting and sharing of data Reimbursement linked to quality improvement, efficient service delivery and cost reduction thru improvement Increasing integration of delivery systems and coordination of care across settings Greater role in addressing public health issues Greater use of health information technology Creation of a learning environment in healthcare 16
New Tools, New Incentives, New Penalties, New Organizations
What does it all mean?
17
Value-Based Purchasing and Linking Payment to Quality
“
A major, overarching theme in the Affordable Care Act is one of measurement, transparency, and altering payment to reinforce, not simply volume of services, but the quality of the effects of those services. Instead of payment that asks, “How much did you do,” the Affordable Care Act clearly moves us toward payment that asks, “How well did you do?” and, more important, “How well did the patient do?” That idea is at the heart of Value-Based Purchasing. It is not just a CMS idea; it is one increasingly pervading the agenda of all payers.” Don Berwick, CMS Administrator, April 4, 2011
18
New Tools, New Incentives, New Disincentives, New Organizations
What does it all mean?
Doing the right things for patients will become easier and doing the wrong things will become more difficult.
19
Questions for Quick Reaction and Discussion
•
What do you like about what you see in this high level gestalt?
•
What does CMS need to do more of, better, differently?
20
The Healthcare Quality/Value Challenge
• U.S. spends more per capita on healthcare than any other country in the world • Quality is often inferior to that of other nations • Significant variation in quality and cost by geographic location • Serious disparities in the quality of health care by race, and socioeconomic status 21

Partnership for Patients : An Overview
The Affordable Care Act Improves Health Care Quality
• The Affordable Care Act (ACA) is best known for fixing broken health insurance laws and helping to cover millions of previously uninsured Americans.
• What many people don’t know is all of the ways the new law is also reducing costs while improving the experience of being a patient, being a caregiver, and being a health care provider. • The Partnership for Patients: Better Care, Lower Costs is one example of how Secretary Sebelius is using provisions of the ACA to make health care in America safer, more efficient, and less costly.
Meet Josie King
Unfortunately, Josie King’s story is not rare.
• • • • On any given day, 1 out of every 20 patients in American hospitals is affected by a hospital-acquired infection.
Among chronically ill adults, 22 percent report a “serious error” in their care.
1 out of 7 Medicare beneficiaries is harmed in the course of their care, costing the federal government over $4.4 billion each year.
Despite pockets of success -- we still see massive variation in the quality of care, and no major change in the rates of harm and preventable readmissions over the past decade.
We can do much better – and we must.
Partnership for Patients Better Care, Lower Costs
1.
–
Reduce harm caused to patients in hospitals.
By the end of 2013, preventable hospital-acquired conditions would
decrease by 40%
compared to 2010.
Achieving this goal would mean approximately 1.8 million fewer injuries to patients with more than
60,000 lives saved
over the next three years.
2.
–
Improve care transitions.
By the end of 2013, preventable complications during a transition from one care setting to another would be decreased such that all hospital readmissions would be
reduced by 20%
2010. compared to Achieving this goal would mean more than
1.6 million patients would recover
from illness without suffering a preventable complication requiring re-hospitalization within 30 days of discharge.
Potential to save up to $35 billion dollars over three years.
How Will Change Actually Happen?
• • • • There is no “silver bullet” We must apply many incentives We must show successful alternatives We must offer intensive supports – Help providers with the painstaking work of improvement
We Know Major Improvement Is Possible
• • • • • 150 New Jersey health care facilities reduced pressure ulcers by 70% Rhode Island reported a 42% decrease in Central Line-Associated Bloodstream Infections (CLABSI) (2006-2007) More than 65 Institute for Healthcare Improvement Campaign hospitals reported going more than a year without a ventilator associated pneumonia in at least one unit.
Ascension Health sites participating in a 2007 peri-natal safety initiative achieved birth trauma rates that were at or near zero. And much more…
