  1. Long-Term Care Discussion GroupMay 24, 2012

  2. National Commission for Quality Long-Term Care • Co-Chairs • Former Senator Bob Kerrey • Former Speaker Newt Gingrich • 21 Commissioners • Quality • Workforce • Technology • Finance • Funded by Leading Age, AHCA, Alliance for Quality Nursing Home Care

  3. Mathematica Policy ResearchA Strategic Plan for LTQA • Potential for LTQA to make a difference by – • Facilitating dialogue and partnerships among all provider groups that serve people needing LTSS and help break down the silos • Bringing consumers and family caregivers together the LTSS providers and government agencies • Making stronger links between quality measurement goals and evidence based practices • Collaborating with other quality improvement organizations on common priorities and goals

  4. Launched January 30th – Brookings Institution • 30 member Board appointed – • Inagural Executive Committee • Mary Naylor – Chair • Carol Raphael – Vice-Chair • Gail Hunt – Secretary • Larry Minnix – Treasurer • Mark McClellan – At large • Developed Statement of Principles

  5. Mission Statement To improve the effectiveness and efficiency of care and the quality of life of people receiving long-term services and supports by fostering person- and family-centered quality measurement and advancing innovative best practices.

  6. Strategic Agenda (2010-2012) Key Strategy: Address a national health challenge, TRANSITIONS IN CARE, affecting people receiving LTSS in order to produce demonstrable improvement in quality and cost reductions Quality Measurement Care transitions; impact on people’s health and QoL; effects on potentially avoidable hospitalizations, re-hospitalizations and total health care costs. Quality Improvement Person- and family-centered, effective transitional care practices Outreach/Public Awareness Information and policies that advance high quality, person- and family-centered transitional care

  10. Quality Measurement Workgroup Report • Achieved consensus on domains for measurement of transitional care in LTSS • Person/Family Centered Care • Transitional Care Processes • Performance Outcomes • Identified and recommended set of 12 transitional care measures • Identified gaps in measurement relevant to transitional care which represent areas for measure development and/or research

  11. Gaps in Transitional Care Measurement • Person and family-centeredness (beyond clinical outcomes) • Process and outcome measures for older adults with cognitive impairment and those receiving palliative care • Transitional care management across episodes of care • Discharge readiness and social support • Preventive care • Access to, cost and cost-effectiveness of transitional care • Disparities and measures reflective of unique subpopulations • Performance of measure “bundle” 12

  12. Next Steps • These consensus-based recommendations synchronize and align with the work of NQF and Measures Application Partnership’s (MAP) roles in recommending measures to CMS • Initial testing of this set of measures can begin through additional LTQA programs including the launch of the Innovative Communities Initiative • Further research is needed to develop and test measures that address LTSS priorities 13

  13. White Paper on Preventable Hospitalizations • Although the decision to go to the hospital is often made in LTSS settings, there are no available validated measures to help long-term care organizations determine what is a preventable hospitalization.  • The paper includes seven recommendations for the LTQA to pursue. These include: • Defining preventable hospitalizations in general instead of by setting. • Defining as precisely as possible the population receiving LTSS. • Beginning a process to develop appropriate measures or measure-based procedures to identify potentially preventable hospitalizations in the LTQA population. • Advocating for studies of measures. • Advocating with CMS for rigorous monitoring of programs designed to reduce preventable hospitalizations. • Expanding education for clinicians who trigger hospitalizations. • Advocating for expanded implementation of existing tools for reducing preventable hospitalizations.

  14. Work In Review • Advancing Effective Care Transitions Among Older Adults Receiving Long-Term Services and Supports • Selected ACA Provisions—Impact on Transitions Among Older Adults Receiving LTSS • Readmissions - Section 3025 • Bundled payments – Section 3023 • CCTP - Section 3026 • Two webinars This work is funded by The Commonwealth Fund

  15. In Development • White Paper - Achieving Higher Value Person-Centered LTSS Through Statewide Payment and Delivery System Reform  • Why do states need to ‘fix’ LTSS? • A vision for higher value, person-centered LTSS • Challenges in achieving higher value, person-centered LTSS • Description of statewide approaches and analysis of each in addressing core values and features of higher value, person-centered LTSS • Policy recommendations • Two webinars This work is funded by The Commonwealth Fund

  17. Community-Based Approach • Communities across the US are beginning to consider transitions of care as a community –based challenge that requires shared ownership and close collaboration across settings. • (Institute for Healthcare Improvement)

  18. Innovative Communities – Why? “Without the involvement of long-term services and supports, ACO’s or other new collaborative models of service delivery will not be able to achieve sustained quality improvements and reduced costs.” -Mark McClellan, MD, Ph.D CAST Chair Director, Engelberg Center for Health Care Reform Leonard D. Schaeffer Chair in Health Policy Studies Brookings Institution, Washington DC

  19. Innovative Communities - Why? “…LTQA is convinced that the most important health reform victories will take place at the local level, in cities and towns… A broad range of community stakeholders…is needed to help older people and people with disabilities remain healthy and independent…” - “Innovative Communities: Breaking Down Barriers for the Good of Consumers and their Family Caregivers.” p.3

  20. Innovative Communities SummitPhilosophical Principles “Large-scale social change requires broad cross-sector coordination, yet the social sector remains focused on the isolated intervention of individual organizations.” -John Kania, Mark Kramer, “Collective Impact,” Stanford Social Innovation Review, Winter, 2011, p.36

  21. Innovative Communities SummitKania and Kramer*Five Conditions of Collective Success* • Common Agenda Shared vision for change. Common understanding of the problem. Joint approach to solution. • Shared Measurement Systems Agreement for success measures. Consistent data collection and indicators. Group accountability. Shared learning for success and failure.

  22. Innovative Communities SummitKania and Kramer*Five Conditions of Collective Success* • Mutually Reinforcing Activities Each party plays their unique role. Coordination of efforts. Mutual support. • Continuous Communications Trusting relationships. Common motivation regardless of sector. Regular meetings. Best solutions instead of self-interest. • Backbone Support Organization Separate organization of stakeholders. Coordination of leadership talent.

  23. December 2010 Innovative Communities Summit • Participants in the inaugural meeting worked together to create a common vision for a more collaborative future for those who provide and those who receive care and services. • That vision, as outlined in our first report, called for: • Empowerment of consumers through a customized, coordinated life-care plan that is person-centered and developed with the involvement of family. • Development of community teams made up of equal partners and led by an independent and invested leadership. • To help make this vision a reality, participants in the 1st Innovative Communities Summit encouraged LTQA to: • Serve as a repository for information that could help local stakeholders create and support Innovative Communities at the local level. • Serve as a cheerleader for Innovative Communities by coaching fledgling communities and convening regular meetings to encourage sharing of ideas and best practices. • Help Innovative Communities identify federal and state sources of funding and offer them advice on ways to access that funding.

  24. June 2011 Innovative Communities Summit • Summit participants represented • 20 Innovative Communities • 20 federal agencies • 15 state and local governments • 5 foundations • 7 consumers • 32 providers • 14 health-care purchasers and payers • 16 academicians • Leaders explored how LTQA can support Innovative Communities and how these communities can work together to improve care transitions and reduce unnecessary rehospitalizations. • 11 presenters facilitated panels and small-group discussions. Presenters represented three major categories of stakeholders: • Innovative Communities • National & State Support Programs • Private Foundations

  25. The Health Care Innovation Challenge • Innovative Communities Initiative (ICI) • Engage 300 communities in an outcomes-oriented Collaborative Action Network (CAN) • Measured Component • 3 Domains – Change Management; Action-Oriented Improvement Skills; Best Practices/Enabling Technologies to – • Reduce ED/Hospital use for target population • Request - $24,526,425 • Save Medicare $78 M – net savings of $53M – ROI of 2.19

  27. SO WHAT’S NEXT?

  28. Don Berwick Brought ‘Triple Aim’ to CMS • Better Care for Individuals • Described by 6 dimensions listed in the IOM’s “Crossing the Quality Chasm” report - • Safety, Effectiveness, Patient-Centeredness, Timeliness, Efficiency, Equity • Better Health for Populations • Through attacking “the upstream causes of so much of our ill health” • Reducing Per-Capita Costs

  29. CMS Vision of Post-Acute Care • “ The person-centered post-acute system of the future will: • Optimize choice and control of services; • Ensure that placement decisions are based on patient needs; • Provide coordinated, high quality care with seamless transition between settings; • Reward excellence by reflecting performance on quality measures in payment; • Recognize the critical role of family care giving; and • Utilize health information technology
