  13. Cost Conference, March 2011

  14. Conference conclusions 1) the need to focus on improved care for patients with chronic illnesses, whose health care needs drive most health spending 2) the potential for sophisticated contracts between health plans and health care systems to improve care for patients with chronic diseases while also slowing the growth of costs 3) the importance of systematically addressing costs throughout the health care system and across the country, not simply focusing on individual payers, providers, or government programs

  15. BCBSMN/Fairview Historical Shared incentives for value creation Pay for Performance Reduce Cost of Care Earned Incentive Reduce Cost of Care Earned Incentive Reduce Cost of Care Earned Incentive Improve Quality Earned Incentive Improve Quality Earned Incentive Fee for Service Increase Guaranteed Improve Quality Earned Incentive Fee for Service Increase Guaranteed Fee for Service Increase Guaranteed Fee for Service Increase Guaranteed Year 1 Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Incentive payment based on measurable improvements in cost, quality, outcomes

  16. BCBSMN/Fairview Quality Measures Safety • Reduction of elective deliveries • Hospital associated DVT/PE Utilization • Preventable events: Complications, admissions, re-admissions • Lower back pain • Advanced care directives Chronic Illness • Diabetic care • Vascular care • Hypertension control Prevention and Wellness • Breast cancer screening • Colorectal cancer screening • Body Mass Index • Tobacco cessation Patient Integration • Depression

  19. Specific, Clinical Targets? • Preventable and unnecessary hospital readmissions. • Adverse safety events and healthcare acquired conditions. • Overuse of high-radiation CT scans where ultrasound or MRI would suffice. • Unmanaged poly-pharmacy in patients with chronic illnesses. • Overuse of cardiac stents absent heart attack (?) • Overuse of interventions related to prostate cancer (?)
