Shared Savings
FY 2015 Changes to QBR
• FY 2015 payments:
Performance Period: CY 2013
Base Period: FY 2012
• Eliminated appropriateness of care measurement
from the QBR program
• Removed topped off measures from the opportunity
domain
• Added Patient Outcome Measures: A mortality
measure developed using 3M APR-DRG grouper
risk of mortality (ROM) on admission

• New Outcome Measures

(10%)
– Central Line Blood Stream Infections (CLABSI) (10%)
Maryland Hospital Acquired Conditions Initiative
• Implemented in July 2009
• Relies on Present on Admission Indicators
(POA) for secondary diagnosis
• PPCs are defined as harmful events
(accidental laceration during a procedure) or
negative outcomes (hospital acquired
pneumonia) that may result from the process
of care and treatment rather than from a
natural progression of underlying disease.
FY 2015 Changes
• FY 2015 payments:
Performance Period: CY 2013
Base Period: FY 2012
• Added Improvement Scale based on comparing
hospital’s performance to their own base line
• Raised the bar by expected MHAC values at the
85% of the state average
• Excluded two types of cases from counts of PPCs
• Hospice Palliative Care Patients (defined as cases with ICD-9
code = V66.7)
• Patients with more than 6 PPCs
MHAC Components
Attainment Scale
Improvement Scale
• Includes 50 PPCs selected
based on clinical and data
quality
• Score is based on case-mix
adjusted PPC rates weighted
by the estimated resource use
• Revenue neutral scaling
• Rewards are given if a hospital
performs better than 85
percent of state average.
• Maximum reduction is 2 % of
total inpatient revenue
• Includes 5 PPCs that are high
cost, high prevalence and high
priority
• Measures percent change from
a base year for each hospital
• Revenue neutral scaling
• Rewards are given if a
hospitals improves more than
the current median
improvement in the base year.
• Maximum reduction is 1 % of
total inpatient revenue

Continuous Improvement and
evaluation
• QBR: incorporates new measures and increase their
contribution to the overall score
– HCAHPS, Mortality, Patient Safety Indicators
• MHAC: more aggressive benchmarks and evaluation of
PPC selection to the program
• Coding audits and POA screens
Readmissions:Episode-Based Payment

subsequent readmissions
within 30 days
Readmission Shared-Savings
• FY 2014 Rate Adjustment to achieve 0.3%
savings from inpatient revenues
• Based on Case-mix Risk-Adjusted 30-Day
Readmission Rates
• FY 2015: Planned readmissions are
excluded
• Possible Changes for FY 2016
– Incorporation of across hospital readmissions
– Changing the measurement methodology to
align with CMS
Maryland’s Goals
An all payer system that is accountable for the total cost of care on
a per capita basis is an effective model for establishing policies and
incentives to drive system progress toward achieving the three part
aim of enhanced patient experience (including quality and
satisfaction), better population health, and lower costs.
