  1. Taking Action to Address Global Problems Emerging Payment Reform Models for Health and Behavioral Healthcare ACMHA SummitThursday, March 25,2010Dale Jarvis, CPAMCPP Healthcare Consulting, Inc.dale@mcpp.net.com

  2. My Hypotheses: Healthcare Reformwill Pass and will usher in Unprecedented Change • Federal Healthcare reform will trigger dramatic changes in how health and behavioral health services are organized and funded • These changes will create a tipping point in how the healthcare needs of persons with serious mental illness and the behavioral healthcare needs of all Americans are addressed

  3. New Payment Reform and System Management Models

  4. The Two-Part Problem “The American healthcare system is a dysfunctional mess.”(Ezekiel Emanuel, MD, Chair of the Department of Bioethics at the Clinical Center of the National Institutes of Health) $2.3 - $5.2 Trillion As much as 30% of health care costs (over $700 billion per year) could be eliminated without reducing quality

  5. The Two-Part Problem Fixing the problem can be described as: • Moving further upstream with prevention & early intervention services to prevent health conditions from becoming chronichealth conditions • Dramatically improving the management of chronic health conditions for the 45% of Americans with one or more such conditions whose treatment draws down 75% of total medical costs • Reducing errors and waste in the system • Reducing incentives for high cost, low value, procedure-based care

  6. Emerging Delivery System and Payment Reform Models Where the U.S. Healthcare System is headed (at a glance)

  7. Delivery System Redesign Elephant in the Room • Need to invert the Resource Allocation Triangle • Prevention Activities must be funded and widely deployed • Primary Care must become a desirable occupation and • Decrease Demand in the Specialty and Acute Care Systems • These are dramatic shifts that will not magically take place

  8. Two Types of Payment Reform are the Key Value-Based Purchasing (VBP) Value-Based Insurance Design (VBID)

  9. Value-Based Purchasing – The Holy Grail Global Capitation to an Integrated Health System But... Integrated Health Systems will be only one of many system models

  10. Value-Based Purchasing – Medical Homes • Fee for Service is headed towards extinction • Health Care Home models will begin with a 3-layer funding design with the goal of the FFS layer shrinking over time • Being replaced with case rate or capitation with a pay for performance layer

  11. Value-Based Purchasing – Inpatient Care • Payment for inpatient care will bundle hospital and physician services • Bundled payments that only pay for part of Potentially Avoidable Complications (PACs) will penalize providers that have higher error rates and reward those with lower PAC rates • Bundled payments may include all costs in the 30 days post an inpatient stay, including any return to the hospital

  12. Value-Based Purchasing – Other Strategies • Pay for Performance funding layer • Differential Rates for providers that use published Practice Guidelines (EBPs) • Capacity-Based Funding to kick start innovations • Funding to community organizations that improve health status and bend the cost curve

  13. Value-Based Insurance Design (VBID) • Developed in response to problems related to increases in co-payments implemented by employers and insurance companies to save money

  14. Value-Based Insurance Design Features (VBID) • Decreasing cost-sharing for interventions that are known to be effective • Increasing cost-sharing for those that are not known to be effective • Providing financial incentives based on behavioral economics research • Providing a deep education component to explicitly guide patients to use high-value, and avoid low-value, interventions

  15. So How does the MH/SU System Fit into this New Equation?

  16. So How does the MH/SU System Fit into this New Equation? The MH/SU delivery system has two roles to play: • Integration of CBHOs into Person Centered Healthcare Homes • High Performing, Recovery and Wellness-Oriented MH/SU Providers And, in both cases, will need to learn to play by the payment reform rules

  17. So How does the MH/SU System Fit into this New Equation? • We’ve learned from 50 years of effort that if you work in the BH Safety Net... • Focusing inward to create a high-performing CBHO does not always prevent you from ending up at the bottom...

  18. Understanding Where the Healthcare Management Models are Headed • Status Quo: Fee-For-Service, Non-Integrated Model: All the wrong incentives and disincentives

  19. Understanding Where the Healthcare Management Models are Headed • Integrated Healthcare System

  20. Understanding Where the Healthcare Management Models are Headed • Accountable Care Organization (ACO) Model

  21. So How does the MH/SU System Fit into this Second Part of the New Equation? Integrated Healthcare System • If you are operating in a state and community where integration efforts are under way and the IHS model is being pushed, your choices are: • Do nothing and hopethey ignore the SMI/SED population • Become a PreferredProvider of an IHS • Create a consortium of BH Providers and contract with the IHSas a Provider Network • Become an Acquisition Target and become part of the IHS’ BH Division

  22. So How does the MH/SU System Fit into this Second Part of the New Equation? Accountable Care Organization • If you are operating in a state and community where integration efforts are under way and the ACO model is being pushed, your choices are: • I’m going to skip “do nothing” • Become a Preferred Provider to the ACO • Become a Memberof the ACO • Get in on the groundfloor and become a Founding Member/Owner of the ACO

  23. Get ready... it’s going to Happen
