3. Chronic diseases : impact Literature : European Observatory on Health Systems and Policies www.euro.who.int/en/home/projects/observatory Tackling chronic disease in Europe. Strategies, interventions and challenges - Reinhard Busse, Miriam Blümel, David Scheller-Kreinsen, Annette Zentner Managing chronic conditions: Experience in eight countries - Ellen Nolte, Cécile Knai, Martin McKee …/…
Burden of chronic diseases(R. Busse 2009 Berlin TU) Chronic conditions and diseases are the leading cause of mortality and morbidity in Europe, and research suggests that complex conditions such as diabetesand depression will impose an even greater health burden in the future. It has been estimated that in 2005 77%of all Disabiliy-Adjusted-Life-Years (DALYs) and 86% of premature deaths in the WHO European region are related to non-communicable diseases. The condition expected to increase most dramatically is dementia.
Worldwide share of deaths by causes and countries within different World Bank income categories (2002) Chronic diseaseis the major causeof death in allbut the poorestcountries!
Cost & benefits of chronic conditions • A lot of uncertainty : further research needed • How to measure? Cost dimensions: • Cost of illness : direct, indirect, intangible costs • Micro economic level : income and spending, labour productivity and supply • Macro economic level : economic growth : quantifying negative impact of CD • Marc Suhrcke, Rachel A. Nugent, David Stuckler and Lorenzo Rocco for OxHA, (Oxford Health Alliance) • Ellen Nolte, Cécile Knai, Martin Mc Kee,
Cost of illness • Cost-of-illness: quantity of resources (in monetary terms) used to treat a disease as well as the size of the negative economic consequences of illness in terms of lost productivity to society or to a specific sector: • Direct : medical care • Indirect : loss of income • Intangible : pain, sickness
Cost of chronic diseases • The cost of chronic diseases and their risk factors – as measured by cost-of-illness studies – is significant and sizeable, ranging from 0.02% to 6.77% of a country’s GDP. • Relevant? • What about solutions? Integrated care needed : Disease management
Integrated care • At patient level : • Empowerment of patient • Guaranteed service from birth to grave • At professional level : • continuity of care model : prevention, early detection, early treatment, treatment, palliative care. • Real implication in decisions • At organizational level : new financing, new organization
Disease Management Programs Expected RESULTS : • Improving quality of life cost-effectively. • Cost containment Expected COSTS : • Set up costs • Operating costs • Adverse selection costs
Disease management: key elements • Comprehensive care: multidisciplinary care for entire disease cycle • Integrated care, care continuum, coordination of the different components • Population orientation (defined by a specific condition) • Active client–patient management tools (health education, empowerment, self-care) • Evidence-based guidelines, protocols, care pathways • Information technology, system solutions • Continuous quality improvement Source: Velasco-Garrido, Busse and Hisashige 2003.
Lessons learned (Nolte, Knai and Mc Kee) • Coordination: in countries with multidisciplinar primary care : increasing role of nurses • Incentives: Independant primary care - DMP with financial and legal conditions, with incentives for insurers and providers.
How effective are Disease Management Programmes? Mattke et al. Am J Manag Care. 2007; 13: 670-676
Methods for paying service provision • Fee for service • Pay for performance • Flat fee • Capitation system for chronic diseases Payment systems can hinder implementation of new services.
Costs of illness in Belgium • Belgium : 10.4% of GDP spending on health care = 65% chronic diseases • Cardiac diseases : 8% of total health care costs • Fee for service • No coordination incentives • No incentives for DMP
Change possible : Telemonitoring Net Benefit (2007) NB! Based on pessimistic assumption: readmission avoidance = 0% Readmission avoidance =10% Break-even is achieved by Readmission avoidance rate = 13%, or Reduction in hospitalization by 2 days IM3 Project (Irina Odnoletkova) 32
4. Belgian case Disease Managamentdeveloped by MLOZ • Fee for service system, independant and competitive health care providers • Budgets: Vertical silos – co cooperation • 5 competitive Health Insurance Funds • Budget policy, no health policy • 4000 $ per caput
DM History in MLOZ Independant Health Insurance Funds • Complementary insurance : in 2005 platforms launched for chronic diseases (diabetes, obesitas) with specific reimbursements • Experiences : • HIF is not the optimal structure • Healthcare providers not involved
New initiative : creation of DMC New elements of care: • Enrolment system based on the risk stratification and the Evidence Based Practice Guidelines • Patient self management support tools • Providers support tools (IT based) • Process and outcomes measurement
Activities • Care plans development – integration/relation other initiatives • Individual Care plan management • Education/coaching/monitoring for each pathology and combined pathologies • Care plans IT support and maintenance • Promotion of care plans and IT support with physicians • Training of physicians in system use • Facilitating of medical telephone support to patients outsourcing with Home Care/Call centre’s • Data processing and analysis • System quality monitoring and care plans upgrading • Communication
How to start? • Creating trust with stakeholders – pilot project Care Television : implication of all partners : doctors, pharmacists, hospitals, nurses • Political consensus between 4 stakeholders on concept of DM : private governance, equal rights (50% HIF, 50% healthcare providers) • Support by IT companies
How to start? • Financial incentives for stakeholders • Open and large consultation and large tenders • Concrete services : • Tele-education/coaching of chronic patients • Hospital service : pre- and post intervention management (coronary interventions) • PHR & Datamanagment
Temporary Consortium • 4 founding partners : Independant and Neutral HIF, BVAS - Belgian Doctors association, Belgian Pharmacist Association • 4 supporting IT companies, financing consortium
