In the Beginning
  • Office of Rural Health asked OFMQ to partner in
    2002 for a Rural Hospital Conference.
  • 7th Scope-Task 2b Transition hospitals to self
    generated data collection and reporting (2003)
  • quickly became assistance with public reporting
  • Beginning of a true partnership

3
First Oklahoma Rural Health Conference Success
  • Office of Rural Health had 2 employees who did
    all the organization
  • Well supported by Hospital leadership, staff and
    vendors
  • Promoted second joint project Rural Hospital
    Computer Project (1e)

4
Computers to Rural Hospitals
  • OSU/Office of Rural Health purchasing contract
    pricing
  • OFMQ provided non-government funds
  • Purchased computers for 53 rural hospitals
    including CAH (2003)
  • Hospital received free computer agreed to report
    quality data
  • Hospital also received

5
Hospitals NeededTraining Support
  • OSU/ORH provided basic computer training to
    hospital staff through Career Techs throughout
    the state
  • OFMQ provided technical training to individual
    hospitals
  • Partnership provided regional leadership training
    and clinical education at Career Tech campuses
    throughout the state

6
Ongoing Partnership
  • Conference was successful-decision to continue
  • Lots of ideas suggested by attendees
  • Rural Hospitals crucial to Oklahomas Healthcare

7
Conference Planning Committee
  • Volunteers-Hospital and Vendors
  • Have shifted Planning and Production
    responsibilities based on resources
  • Solicit topic suggestions and evaluation
  • Update National and State initiatives and
    regulations every year

8
The Planning Committee Today
  • Under Corie Kaisers direction- a well-run machine

9
2008Oklahoma Rural Hospital Conference
  • 6th Oklahoma Rural Health Conference
  • Increased attendance every year
  • Increased vendor support every year
  • Topics of importance to rural hospitals with
    quality focus
  • Considering implementing a multi-state event

10
Ongoing Projects
  • Continue to grow the Conference
  • Rural Hospital 8th Scope
  • Improving Hospital Culture of Safety
  • Systems Improvement Organizational Change

11
Leadership Development
  • Leaders hold the key
  • Leaders come from everywhere
  • D.D. Bainbridge Project
  • TeamSTEPPS
  • AHRQ Culture of Safety Survey
  • HLQAT

12
Leadership-Quality Link
  • Improvement in Culture of Quality Safety must
    be leadership priority.
  • Board
  • Administrators
  • Clinical Leaders
  • National, State Community Leaders

13
Leadership and Quality in Critical Access
Hospitals
  • Oklahoma joined a multi state project funded by
    the Rural Hospital Flexibility Program (FLEX)
  • OFMQ and ORH staff have participated in
    curriculum for onsite support to hospitals

14
D.D. Bainbridge Associates, Inc.
  • Focus on 5 Outcomes
  • Patient Satisfaction
  • Patient Retention
  • Patient Profitability
  • New Patient Acquisition
  • Market Share Domination

15
Outcomes achievable when supported by
  • Strong Leadership
  • A clear understanding of the organizations
    mission, vision and values
  • A healthy change engine founded in a strong
    quality program
  • Focus on the right future defined in a
    strategic strategic plan
  • A structured way to implement the plan
  • A healthy balance of resources

16
The Future
  • Payor and Public Expect Transparency
  • Quality and Safety data in the press
  • CMS stated plan to Implement Value Based
    Purchasing
  • CMS will pay for high quality care

17
Note Requires action by Congress before hospital
value-based purchasing can be implemented. Will
not apply to CAHs.
18
VBP Design Assumptions
  • Would build on infrastructure of the Reporting
    Hospital Quality Data for Annual Payment Update
    Program (RHQDAPU)
  • Transition from and replace RHQDAPU
  • Would not include additional funding
  • 2-5 withhold of base DRG funding for all
    Medicare patients (not just the core topics)
    recommended in draft report

19
Health care quality is improving only modestly,
at best, said AHRQ Director Carolyn M. Clancy,
M.D. Given that health care spending is rising
much faster, these findings about quality
underscore the urgency to improve the value
Americans are getting for their health care
dollars.
20
Problems with healthcare quality and safety are
commonly exposed in lay press

22
Public Reporting Evolves
  • Every hospital in Oklahoma has reported data to
    the CMS Quality Data Warehouse
  • Oklahoma Hospitals are required to report quality
    improvement data to comply with state regulations
    (includes CAH)
  • CAH hospitals are not required to report in order
    to receive their full Medicare payment but have
    learned to use data to improve care

23
Transparency
  • Reported clinical measures now 30
  • AMI - 8
  • HF - 4
  • Pneumonia - 7
  • SCIP 7
  • Mortality Measures - 3
  • HCAHPS (Patient Survey)

24
Requirements for Public Accountability
  • In Oklahoma if you are a CAH or PPS hospital, you
    are required to report the CMS core quality
    measures for inpatients as a condition of
    licensure.

TITLE 310. OKLAHOMA STATE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH
CHAPTER 667. HOSPITAL STANDARDS SUBCHAPTER 1.
GENERAL PROVISIONS
25
Is additional reporting around the corner?
  • In 2006, the Oklahoma State Legislature passed
    House Bill 2842 which amended O.S. Title 63,
    Section 1-707 of Oklahoma Statute expanding the
    authority of the Oklahoma Hospital Advisory
    Council to require hospital public reporting of
    rates of infection for adult intensive care unit
    patients to 1) ventilator-associated pneumonia,
    and 2) central line blood stream infections.
    Rules issued by the Department of Health OAC
    Title 310 Chapter 667 - specifically
    310667-1-3(h)

26
Quality and Payment
  • Factors driving policy related to quality
    measurement and payment incentives

27
Cost and Quality
  • 2.2 trillion on healthcare this year alone
  • 600 billion for Medicare and Medicaid
  • By 2030, at present rate of growth will consume
    50 of Federal budget
  • Disconnect between payments and performance
  • Paid the same regardless of quality
  • Often paid more for care that results in
    avoidable complications

Volume-based Payment
28
Cost and Quality
  • Well documented deficiencies in the quality of
    care
  • Substantial underuse of recommended care
    regardless of income, race, or age
  • Substantial regional variation in the use of
    healthcare services without evidence of
    additional benefit to patients in high
    utilization regions
  • Cost

29
Response to the Issues of Cost, Variation, and
Quality
  • Standardized measures of quality across all
    settings
  • Public reporting of performance
  • Payment incentives for performance
  • Changes in payment policy to reward quality and
    not volume
  • Withhold payment for complications

30
Oklahoma Healthcare Quality Improvement Advisory
Committee
  • Consistent findings of poor quality of health
    care in Oklahoma
  • Robert Wood Johnson Foundation
  • Commonwealth Fund
  • National Healthcare Quality Report State
    Snapshots
  • Convened by the Commissioner of Health
  • Includes regulators, payers, provider
    organizations, business interests, and consumers

31
Oklahoma Healthcare Quality Improvement Advisory
Committee
  • Three committees (Home Health/Hospital,
    Outpatient care, Nursing Home care) to address
    quality measures
  • Each asked to focus on
  • Educational programs for providers
  • Consumer engagement
  • Public accountability (e.g., public reporting of
    performance)
  • Payment incentives to drive better care

32
Measures of Focus
  • Home Health/Hospital
  • Preventable hospital readmission rates are very
    high in Oklahoma
  • Nursing Home
  • Pressure ulcer rates, use of restraints, pain
    management
  • Outpatient Setting
  • Care of diabetes mellitus
  • Preventive services colorectal CA screening,
    mammography, Pap smears

33
Performance Model Overview
  • 70 of performance score based on process
    measures
  • 30 of performance score based on HCAHPS (patient
    satisfaction survey data)
  • CMS currently working to incorporate the 30-day
    mortality measures, and is designing new measures
    of complications, hospital readmission, and
    efficiency

34
