Understanding and Using the CMMI and Actuarial Cost & Utilization Reports Katie Matthews, ASA, MAAA Ally Weaver, ASA, MAAA November 3, 2017
Objectives • Gain understanding of and learn how to monitor the CMMI cost and utilization metrics. • Gain understanding of and learn how to monitor actuarial cost and utilization metrics. • Learn how to identify what is “Going Well” or “Not so Much” financially.
Why are these reports important? • What is going on outside the practice? • How do costs and use of services change over time?
What detail is included? Each report contains information split by the following level of detail: • Practice compared to SIM aggregate cohorts (Family, Pediatric, or Adult) • Baseline Year in total and by quarter • Program Years-to-date and by quarter • By Line of Business (Commercial, Medicaid, Medicare) and in total • No risk adjustment yet
What detail is included? CMMI Cost & Utilization Reports
What detail is included? Actuarial Cost & Utilization Reports
Which patients are represented for each practice? Attribution CIVHC performs attribution. Patients are assigned to a single primary care provider where they had the most visits in recent years.
Overview of CMMI Reports: Nine Metrics Behavioral Physical Follow-up after Hospitalization for Mental Illness Total Cost of Care PMPM Emergency Dept. Rate Emergency Dept. Rate Out-of-pocket Expenditures for Consumers Admissions Admissions Readmissions Readmissions
How to Use Actuarial Reports • Track performance over time • Review which types of services show increasing/decreasing costs • Compare individual practice results to SIM family / pediatric / adult practice results • No risk adjustment (yet) • Aggregate SIM report is also produced • Inform cost projections, cost savings, ROI
Proposed ROI through 3-Year SIM Program Assumed Grant Amount: Actual Grant Amount:
Cost Savings Assumptions • Projected Savings: $17.3M (yr. 1), $42.2M (yr. 2), $67.1M (yr. 3) • Savings translates to about $1.90 PMPM Utilization & Cost Reductions Utilization & Cost Increases • Inpatient Physical • Inpatient Behavioral • Emergency Services • Ambulance • Skilled Nursing Facility • Professional Physical • Professional Behavioral • Diagnostic Testing • Imaging / Labs • Prescription Drugs
