  1. Iowa Public Health and Health Reform Gerd Clabaugh Deputy Director Iowa Department of Public Health November 17, 2011

  2. Outline • Components of Iowa’s current public health services system • Building blocks of ACA relevant to Iowa health delivery system change • Opportunities for public health delivery change in Iowa • ACO • Immunization • Community Utility

  3. Selected Health Reform Themes • Public accountability • Value-based Purchasing – triple aim • Better care for individuals • Better health for populations • Lower growth in expenditures • Organizing care around the patient • Information Systems • More covered lives from among previously uninsured

  4. Iowa’s Current PH Delivery System • Iowa’s PH delivery system focuses on access gaps: • Immunizations for children • Maternal and child health • Enable geographic and financial access • Safety net • Supplement to the private care delivery system

  5. PH Opportunity • PH brings skillsets that will be greatly valued under reform • Outreach • Population-based health • Community education • Use of data in driving decisionmaking

  6. PH Realizes the Opportunity… • Understanding PH’s value in the community • Building the business case for value • Being sophisticated about communicating PH performance • Being a partner and leader in the local delivery system • Looking for localized, collaborative solutions

  7. ACA’s impact on Iowa PH • ACO • Immunizations • Community Utility • Maternal Health

  8. ACO needs… • Strong primary care base which understands the primary care medical home concept • Accessible care • Ability to collect data and report performance • Manage to total patient savings, not by payer • Engaged patients • Capability to serve all patients

  9. Accountable for what? • Total patient care • Population health outcomes • Patient care experiences • Cost The Commonwealth Fund, April 2011

  10. Public Health opportunity… • Understanding of primary care • Practices as a medical home • Competency is delivery of care to underinsured, a target population of ACA

  11. Immunizations • Medicaid • Medicaid coverage expansion for low-income adults could result in more demand • Payment rates for physician administration of vaccine will increase • Insurance Exchange-provided insurance will include immunization coverage unless grandfathered

  12. Delivery System needs… • Cost effective methods of reaching their covered population • Experience outreaching to previously underserved communities • Additional capacity

  13. Community Utility • A resource shared by multiple community service providers or practices in order to achieve efficiencies in operation and management and improvements in quality Ed Schor, 2011

  14. Community Utility • Care coordination • Health education • Information Technology • Quality improvement • Home visiting • Mental health consultation Ed Schor, 2011

  15. PH Opportunity • PH positioned to serve geographic areas with outreach type efforts • Utility model is shared by all • PH is a connector to community services

  16. Example: Readmissions • 13% of Medicare readmissions are avoidable - $12 billion • CMS Innovation Center now working to connect hospitals to CBO’s to reduce readmissions for select conditions • Emphasis in care transitions, connection to community resources out of the hospital

  17. Conclusions • Population health has been integrated into the ACA • Greater levels for financial, outcomes, and access accountability will exist for all stakeholders • Understanding current performance and best practices will be important to success • Best practices deployed in the community will drive improved outcomes
