- 7. American Health Care TheAmerican way of health care is both reviled and praised, sometimes by the same people. It is expensive, but it is innovative. It is unequal , but it provides some of the best care in the world. Its cost is growing far too fast for individuals and businesses, but we want even more of it. There are intense debates concerning many areas of health care – scientific issues in medical practice, prescription drugs, and emergency room use, to name a few – and underlying most of this conflict is the unusual way we pay for health care in the United States. Our approach results in our spending much more than other industrialized countries for, statistically speaking, no better results. Richard C. Leone, President The Century Foundation

- 21. We Have anUnsustainable Situation • Americans have an expectation that health care is a right. • If care isn’t funded then our safety net system picks up the slack. • Government funded health care represents more than 50% of all health care dollars. • Medicare alone is projected to create a 60 trillion national debt by 2050.
- 22. What Drives theIncreases in Cost? • Lifestyle choices - BAD • Improved technology - GOOD Imaging Pharmaceuticals Implants • Aging of America - GOOD Baby boomers Geriatric population (Men – 77, Women 81) • Retail features in a third party payer system - BAD Direct to consumer advertising • Bureaucracy, paperwork and regulatory complexity – VERY BAD • Medical liability system – VERY, VERY BAD • Lagging information technology - BAD • Payment for piecework BUT not for good outcomes. - BAD
- 23. ACA (OBAMACARE) Patient Protection& Affordable Care Act • Law signed in 2010 – phasing in through 2020 • More than half of the States have sued to declare portions of the law unconstitutional. • The House of Delegates voted repeatedly to repeal the act. • Senator Orrin Hatch introduced legislation to repeal the individual and employer mandate in the Senate. • Judge Roger Vinson (Florida) ruled against the ACA and added that the lack of a severability clause required him to declare, “The whole act void”. Reversed by the Supreme Court. • King vs. Burwell currently in the Supreme Court.
- 24. ACA is “Really”Three Bills (and probably more…) • Health Insurance Reform • Extension of coverage to larger percentage of the U. S. population. • Creative payment reform and encouragement for improved quality (pay for value) via Medicare and Medicaid payment mechanisms.

Creative Payment Reform (encouragedby Medicare and Medicaid) • Accountable Care Organizations (ACO) • Bundled payments • “Innovation Center” experiments • Improve information systems and health care data gathering/analytics in the health care industry. • Congress just reinforced these concepts with SGR bill language this month (April, 2015).
- 28. Diabetes Management Pilot Initialprogram results have been excellent. If Texas implemented a similar diabetes program with similar outcomes, Texas Medicaid could save $155 million/year. 75% 33% Decrease in Inpatient Care Decrease in Emergency Care $2.85 benefit for every $1.00 spent Redefining Value: Better Outcomes at Lower Cost

- 34. The 4 PatientGroups • Whole population: preventive screenings. • Chronic disease: asthma, diabetics, CAD. • Catastrophic: transplants, cancers, strokes, etc. • High utilizers: frequent ER visits, seeing multiple specialists, poly pharmacy, behavioral, financial and/or social issues, etc.
- 35. • Increased informaticsand prompting at point of care • Patient Outreach unit to focus on care gaps for healthy patients and controlled chronic disease patients • Extensivist team for complex, high-utilizing patients High Level Strategy
- 36. Summary • The costof medical care in the U.S. is concentrated in a small subset of the population. • Data analytics can identify many (not all) of the population at risk. • The current FFS reimbursement methodology does not reward prospective identification of this population or care coordination. • Large, integrated delivery systems have the ability to identify and direct resources to better manage the high risk population. • You get what you pay for!
- 38. The Health IndustryForum Last month Secretary Sylvia Matthews Burrell announced that HHS has adopted a goal of shifting half of Medicare payments from traditional fee-for-service to an alternative method by 2018. Despite many new Affordable Care Act initiatives, progress on payment reform around the country has been spotty. Most of the new payment initiatives provide financial incentives for quality or reward provider groups that control total spending below a budget target. But most of these programs place little financial risk on providers. It is not known whether these limited financial incentives are strong enough to drive meaningful delivery reforms nor is it know whether they will evolve into stronger arrangements.
