QUALITY IMPROVEMENT (QI)
PROGRAM OVERVIEW
4
Quality Improvement (QI) Program
• 42 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR)
§ 422.152
• Applies to all MAOs, including SNPs
• Seven components of the QI Program
• Serves to integrate and coordinate all of the assessment
tools and reporting requirements
5
QI Program -21. Chronic care improvement program (CCIP)
• Meet the requirements of 42CFR §422.152(c)
• Addresses populations identified by CMS based on review of
current quality performance
2. Quality improvement projects (QIPs)
• Meet the requirements of 42CFR §422.152(d)
• Expected to have a favorable effect on health outcomes and
enrollee satisfaction
• Address areas identified by CMS
6
QI Program -33. Develop and maintain a health information system
4. Encourage providers to participate in CMS and Health &
Human Services (HHS) QI initiatives
5. Contract with an approved Medicare CAHPS vendor to
conduct the Medicare CAHPS satisfaction survey
7
QI Program -46. Include a program review process for the formal evaluation
of the QI Program that addresses at least the following
areas on an annual basis:
•
•
Impact
Effectiveness
7. Take remedial action to correct problems identified using
ongoing quality improvement
8
Defining Quality
9
BACKGROUND
10
Background
• Identified need to improve reporting tools for both the CCIPs
and the QIPs
• Follow the QI cycle of Plan, Do, Study, Act
• More focused on interventions and outcomes
• Participate in national health initiatives
• CCIPs must be clinical
• QIPs may be clinical or non-clinical
11
Background -2• CMS is involved in several important Department of Health
and Human Services (HHS) Initiatives
• Want to ensure that our beneficiaries enrolled in the
Medicare Advantage (MA) program have the opportunity to
benefit from these initiatives
12
Background -3• The required topic for the CY 2012 CCIPs is reducing risks
for cardiovascular disease
• This topic is the focus of the national Million Hearts
Campaign
13
Background -4• The required topic for the CY 2012 QIPs is decreasing plan
all cause readmissions
• Current HEDIS® measure
• One of the goals of the national CMS Partnership for Patient
Initiative
14
MILLION HEARTS CAMPAIGN
15
Heart Disease and Strokes
• Also referred to has cardiovascular disease (CVD)
• Over 2 million heart attacks and strokes each year
• Leading killers in the U.S.
• Cause 1 of every 3 deaths ~ 800,000 deaths
• Leading cause of preventable death in people < 65
Source: Million Hearts Campaign 2012
16
Heart Disease and Strokes -2• Billions of dollars (~ $444 ) in health care costs and lost
productivity
• Treatment accounts for ~ $1 of every $6 spent
• Greatest differences in racial disparities for life expectancy

Decrease costs
Provide health improvement based on plan on population
31
Disease State Selection
• Determine incidence and prevalence
• Identify data sources
• What data do I have to use to track and monitor progress for
the patients
• Is the disease relevant to the patients
• Are there gaps in the current program
32
Disease State Selection -2• Is the disease clinically manageable
