  1. UCHC Expansion Pathways: Economic Impacts Peter Gunther Sr. Research Fellow CCEA REMI Spring Conference Amherst MA April 23, 2009

  2. Objectives • Enhance the Supply of Doctors and Dentists to Offset Abnormal Retirement Rates Midst Aging Population • Improve the Quality of Training • Increase Offerings • Attract HQPs • Augment Operating Revenues • More Paying Beds • Capacity to Lead Clinical Trials • Augment R&D Funding • Medical Tourism • Attract More Students • Assess Economic and Health Impacts of Alternative Pathways for UCHC Expansion

  3. Additional Background • Medical Training Hospitals Differ from Strictly Patient Care Ones for Pedagogical Reasons & R&D Including More Precise Instrumentation • The Main UCHC Campus Is the John Dempsey Hospital (JDH) • JDH is Inadequate: • Has Only 224 Beds • HVAC System is Overloaded • Built as Circle with Irregularly Shaped ORs • Makes it Difficult to Attract and Retain Staff • Inadequate Capacity to Lead Clinical Trials

  4. Alternative Additive Pathways • Expansion of JDH and Enrolments • Collaboration and Phase 2 and 3 Clinical Trials • Attraction of Gurus and Medical Tourism • Expanded Clinical Trials

  5. Methodology • Define Incremental Economic Stimuli for each Pathway 2010 to 2040 • Construction • Operations • Estimate Key Economic Impacts Using REMI • Estimate Amenity Benefits Outside of REMI If You Invest, It Must Earn Revenue or Model Will Treat It As a Bad Investment

  6. Key Economic Indicators • Employment • Incomes • Taxes and Disposable Income • Demographics and Labor Force • Fiscal Impacts • Amenity Benefits

  7. Expansion of JDH and Enrolments:Stimuli • $475 Million Construction 2010-2015 Defined by Activity • Increase in Staffed Beds from 224 to 250 • Clinical employment Increases at Current JDH Averages per Bed and carry-out R&D at present average levels • Faculty increase over ten years • Support Staff Increase Commensurate with Statewide Averages to Physician and Surgeons • Enrolments in Medicine and Dentistry Increase at 20/yr 2016-2019 • Prior to graduations, medical students are not paid by the University • Medical Faculty Increase at Current Faculty/Student Ratio • Commensurate Increase in Support Staff • Dentists Commence Practicing after Graduation • Medical Internships and Residencies Last 2.9 Yrs. (Current Average) • State continues to benefit for surplus of Federal subsidies over payments • 52% of Graduates Remain in Connecticut to Practice with Average Staff Complements • Annual Attrition is 1.5%

  8. Expansion of JDH and Enrolments:Employment

  9. Expansion of JDH and Enrolments:Income

  10. Expansion of JDH and Enrolments:Personal Disposable Income

  11. Expansion of JDH and Enrolments:Population and Labor Force

  12. Expansion of JDH and Enrolments:NPV Fiscal Impacts (Millions 2008$)

  13. Expansion of JDH and Enrolments:Amenity Benefits (VOSL) Attributing 12 Lives Saved a Year to Improved Faculties at JDH or Additional Expertise at the School of Medicine Yields Amenity Benefits Equal to its Operating Stimulus

  14. Plus Collaboration and Clinical:Additional Stimuli

  15. Plus Collaboration and Clinical:Employment

  16. Plus Collaboration and Clinical Trials:Income

  17. Plus Collaboration and Clinical Trials:Personal Disposable Income

  18. Plus Collaboration and Clinical Trials:Population and Labor Force

  19. Plus Collaboration and Clinical Trials:NPV of Fiscal Benefits

  20. Collaboration and Clinical Trials:Amenity Benefits • The Expected Value from Phase 3 Clinical Trials of 3,000 Persons for a Drug that Is Designed to Extend Life By Two Years Ranges from $643 million to $778 million Per Trial • The advantages of reducing AMEs & accelerating patient recovery accrue to: • Patients in terms of quality of life – less chronic pain waiting for care, less time in chronic pain post surgery, and a more rapid return to their jobs and incomes; • Patients’ families in that burdens on family caregivers become less onerous; • Social workers called upon to share the homecare load; • Where patients are insured, the insurance companies; and, • In cases of the underserved, Medicare. • No account taken of increased efficiencies for Social workers from Improved IT System

  21. Plus Partnership and Medical Tourism:Additional Medically Related Stimuli

  22. Plus Partnership and Medical Tourism:Medical Tourism Stimuli

  23. Plus Partnership and Medical Tourism:Employment

  24. Plus Partnership and Medical Tourism:Income

  25. Plus Partnership and Medical Tourism:Personal Disposable Income & Taxes

  26. Plus Partnership and Medical Tourism:Population and Labor Force

  27. Plus Partnership and Medical Tourism:NPV of Fiscal Impacts

  28. Partnership and Medical Tourism:Amenity Benefits • Improved Interactive and Shared IT Systems Will Avoid Adverse Drug interactions • Improved Quality of Staff and Faculty/Student Ratios will Enhance Reputation and Attract Medical Tourists. • Holds Promise of Specialized Teams - Shown to Save Hospital Time and Accelerate Recovery • Less Time Lost from Work • Reduce Homecare • Save Social Worker Costs

  29. Expanded Clinical Trials:Amenity Benefits • Adds $45 million for funds generated by the R&D staff so average grants per faculty member are at University of Iowa Levels • Increases the number of Physicians and Surgeons by 37 each with the New Average Revenue Generation
