  9. Total Health Expenditure per Capita in $US (PPP)* and Population, 25 Selected Countries, Recent Years Source: Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, OECD Health Data, Real time access: Oct. 24/11. Note: $ US comparison based on Purchasing Power Parity (PPP). PPP’s are the rates of currency conversion which eliminate differences in price levels between countries. 2010 are estimates. Population in millions, 2009. “Total” is public and private expenditure.

  10. Recommendations1. Identify and reduce utilization in high-impact, high cost areas • High use, high cost care is concentrated among a small proportion of the population. • 1% of Ontario’s population accounts for 50% of hospital and home care costs. • A large component of high-cost care is due to chronic illness. • OHA calculates: $12 B in annual provincial health expenditures for chronic illness.* * - Source: “Ideas and Opportunities for Bending the Health Care Cost Curve” Page 8, “The MOHLTC Framework document states that over a third of Canada’s direct health care costs arise from major chronic illness and injury. Extrapolating from this statistic, using 2009 data, one third of Ontario’s direct health expenditures of $48.5 billion is $16 B. If an estimated 25% of expenditures can be attributed to major chronic illness (excluding injury), the figure is $12 B.”

  11. Recommendations1. Identify and reduce utilization in high-impact, high cost areas (continued) % Distribution by Group Source: Canadian Health Services Research Group, April 2010 presentation on Ontario’s Health Based Allocation Model (HBAM).

  13. Per Capita Pharmaceutical Spending 2009 Per capita USD PPP Source: OECD Health Data 2011, spending for 2009 or most recent year

  14. Recommendations2. Make targeted, evidence-based investments in key areas though shifts in funding • Shift a portion of funding from larger sectors and programs with relatively high growth in expenditure to: • Community-based services and other identified services to help address the ALC problem. • Mental health and addiction services, both community and hospital-based. • Target a 5.5% increase in per capita expenditure to these areas. • Investments must have expectations of achieving desired results.

  15. Recommendations3. Integrate physicians into the structural reform of the system • Integrating physicians into structural reform is key to: • ensuring alignment of incentives; • reducing gaps in care; • meeting the needs of people with high cost & chronic health conditions; • keeping people out of hospital. • It is estimated that there are between 2,000 and 3,000 primary care organizations in Ontario. • Many people are not “effectively” rostered to primary care organizations. • Family health teams, other primary care organizations, specialists and public health must become directly integrated with other parts of the local health care system.

  16. Ontario per Capita Physician Expenditure, 2011 Ontario would spend $2.5 billion less on physician expenditures if it spent at the average per-capita level of other provinces. $897 Ontario - 712 Non-Ontario 185 Differential x 13 Ontario pop. in millions $ 2.5 Billion difference* Notes: 2011 data are forecast. Non-Ont: NL, PEI, NS, NB, Que, Man, Sask, Alta, B.C. Expenditure includes primarily professional fees paid by provincial/territorial medical care insurance plans to physicians in private practice and hospitals as well as other forms of professional incomes (salaries, sessional, capitation). In Ontario in 2009, $663 M in the physician expenditure category was identifiable as commercial laboratory expenditure. Due to differing expenditure reporting practices across the provinces, comparable information on laboratory expenditure for other provinces is not available. * Calculated using non-rounded figures. Source: National Health Expenditure Database, Canadian Institute for Health Information, 2011.

  17. Recommendations4. Initiate provincial-level health care capacity planning • Capacity planning involves projecting future requirements for: • hospital beds, long-term care places, assisted living spaces, home care hours, primary care services, etc. • benchmarking the appropriate mix of services • operating and capital funding • health human resources • Every 10% shift of ALC patients from hospital care (waiting for long-term care) to home care, results in $35 M in savings. • Every 10% shift of palliative care from acute care to home care could save $9 M. • Source: “Ideas and Opportunities for Bending the Health Care Cost Curve” Pages 10 and 15

  18. ALC Patients in Acute and Post-Acute Care November 2007 to October 2011 Source: OHA ALC Survey Results – November 2007 to June 2011 – all hospitals WTIS:ATC Data as of Oct 31, 2011: Excludes 37 small hospitals with 220 ALC patients in Jun/11

  19. Recommendations5. Accelerate the Excellent Care for All Strategy with a focus on improving quality and basing decisions on solid evidence • ECFA Strategy intended to promote compliance with best clinical practices. • Health Quality Ontario to begin to take on mandate for identifying high impact areas for improvement. • Every 10% reduction of expenditures on wound care across all settings, using evidence, could save $100 M. • Every 10% reduction in adverse events in hospitals could save $12.5 M. • Source: “Ideas and Opportunities for Bending the Health Care Cost Curve” – Pages 13 and 18

  20. Hip & Knee Replacements • Elective primary unilateral hip and knee replacements make up 3.6% of all hospital acute inpatient activity, based on cost. • Ontario expenditures on primary unilateral joint replacements estimated at $414 million for 2009/10. • A 2005 review identified no advantage to receiving inpatient physiotherapy compared with a home-based. Source: “Patient-based Payment, Final Report” – MOHLTC, 2011

  21. Hip & Knee Replacements(continued) • Despite the 2005 recommendations, significant regional variation continues. In 2009/10 patients discharged from acute care to home ranged from 51.7% to 95.0% across the 14 LHINs. • A target of 10% hospital inpatient rehab for elective joint replacements, would divert 5,000 cases annually to home-based rehab. • At an average cost reduction of $3,500, this would result in a savings of $17.5 million annually.

  22. Percentage of eligible* adult stroke patients who received Acute Thrombolytic Therapy (tPA), by LHIN, 2008/09 % Note: * Among ischemic stroke patients who arrived at an ED within 2.5 hours of symptom onset and who do not have contraindications to tPA..**Cental West: No reported/available data. Source: Ontario Stroke Evaluation Report 2011: Improving System Efficiency by Implementing Stroke Best Practices (Ontario Stroke Network, Canadian Stroke Network, ICES.)

  23. Recommendations6. Implement Patient-based Payment (PbP) for funding health care providers. • Implementation of PbP should be expedited to promote incentives for quality and efficiency. • Ontario needs a Provincial Payment Commission to develop and continually revise provincial rates for hospitals, physician services, home care, long-term care, etc., to ensure that they are appropriate and in alignment.

  24. Recommendations7. Consider options for addressing labour costs • Change the Hospital Labour Disputes Arbitration Act to further guide arbitrators’ decisions. • Change the Public Sector Labour Relations Transitions Act (PSLRTA) to enable transfer of services to the community. • Amend the Workplace Safety and Insurance Act to permit hospitals to elect coverage under Schedule II of the Act (i.e. Self-insurance).
