  1. Response of the Disease Management Community to the New Medicare Chronic Care Improvement Program National Disease Management Audioconference: Update on the New Medicare Chronic Care Improvement Program Tuesday, May 25, 2004 Christobel E. Selecky Chief Executive Officer

  2. Disease Management Association of America (DMAA) • Non-profit, multidisciplinary association • Dedicated to advancement of DM • Diverse membership • DMOs • Healthplans • PBMs • Pharmaceutical companies • Academic institutions • Provider groups and IDNs • Device companies • Serves advocacy and educational function • See www.dmaa.org for testimony and white papers on DM in Medicare

  3. Disease Management and Medicare • Used extensively in M+C plans for years • Variety of demonstrations already in place or in process in Traditional Medicare (FFS) • Coordinated Care Demos • BIPA Demos • Capitated Demos • Until CCIP, however, FFS beneficiaries have not had access to DM on a large scale

  4. Many models possible in CCIP • DMO stand-alone • Healthplan with DMO subcontract • PBM/DMO partnership • Provider group/DMO partnership • IDN with in-house DM • Monitoring technology company/DMO

  5. Challenges for DM Community • 100% fee risk (how to secure) • Timing: • IMS and evaluator selection timeframe • Phase 1 RFP out April, first contract required December • Sequential rollout rather than simultaneous • Scalability of DM industry for Phase 2 • Infrastructure of CMS • Impact of Rx benefit mid-term • Need for ongoing data interchange and data refreshes • Not “true” population model – miss opportunity for longer term savings • Physician communication and engagement • Concern that desire for experimentation with different models will compromise outcomes

  6. Opportunities for DM Community • Ultimately, up to 12 million fee for service beneficiaries with the common chronic conditions (Phase 2) • Potential $5 billion to $10 billion new market for DM • Budget neutrality with a randomized control methodology (although Phase 1 requires 5% net savings) provides opportunity to invest in quality • Demonstrate quality improvement as a cost control methodology • Increased opportunities for collaboration • Early expansion of Phase 1 if successful
