- 26. Global Outcomes Score (“GO Score”) 1. Comprehensive and Continuous 2. Guidelines and Predicted Risks 3. Net Benefit Focus - Counterintuitive Results
- 27. What is the“GO Score” Predicted # events prevented by PCP Opportunity Benchmark GO Score = • In example above GO Score = 100/180 = 55 •The opportunity captured is 55% of total benchmark 0 20 40 60 80 100 120 140 160 180 200 Opportunity Benchmark CurrentTreatment 5-Year CVD Events Prevented 180 events 100 events
- 28. How is the GO Score different? 28 The Global Outcomes Score measures CVD risk reduction in populations • Credits providers for reducing risk not just meeting a treatment target or process measure Corrects problems with current simple performance measures such as the blood pressure guidelines: • Credit is given to reduced SBP from 142 to 138 • No credit is given for reducing SBP from 200 to 142 • Other patient risk factors are largely ignored • Leaves little room for physician discretion NCQA is testing the GO Score as a performance measure • PCP will be one of the first groups in the country to test this new approach
- 29. Oversimplified guidelines impact care 29 Mrs. Smith Mr. Jones SBP = 142 SBP = 138 age = 45age = 42 LDL = 116 LDL = 178 HDL = 35HDL = 61 FPG = 116FPG = 89 weight = 244 weight = 345 height = 5’6’’ height = 5’11’’ GO Score will give more credit for treating Mr. Jones 1.2% Risk of MI or stroke in 5 years 7.1% 0.4% Absolute risk reduction if lower BP 2.1%
- 30. What actions increase your GO Score? Prescriptions (15 month grace period for incentive) • Statins • Thiazides • ACE/ARB • CCBs • Beta Blockers Smoking (cessation during the year) Weight loss >5% during the year (BMI>25 at outset) 30 Future versions may include other interventions and other diseases provided data quality is sufficient
