Health Reform Keynote Address
1. + Reform,
Health
System Transformation
And the
Implications
for Health, Hospitals and
Health Care Systems

This Presentation at a Glance
The United States face a number of health and health care challenges –
one reason for the Affordable Care Act
System transformation is being accelerated by the law but will extend far
beyond it
Pursuit of the Triple Aim: Challenges in health, health care and health
care costs
Key aspects of reform and transformation and the implications for
hospitals and health systems
Coverage expansion, influx of chronically ill patients, and impact of not
expanding Medicaid
Innovations in health care delivery, payment and technology
Focus on population and community health
Patient activation and engagement
Some conclusions
4. + Once upon a time, there was a
―country‖…
With an economy the size of France: $2.8
trillion…
With tens of millions of unhealthy people – and life
expectancy below that of 28 of the world’s richest countries…
Where every day, a group of the natives ―experimented‖ on
others by subjecting them to ―medical care,‖ about half of which
has no evidence suggesting that it works…
Where adverse events that occurred in the course of this
―care‖ were among the top ten causes of death annually…
Where tens of millions didn’t get care they needed and tens of
thousands died each year as a result…
And partly because of the cost of the flawed care it does
provide, the country was possibly going broke!
5. What would you do with
this country?
Send in the Marines?
Send in the International
Monetary Fund?
Send in Amnesty International?
Other?
+
6. + We know this country’s identity…
The
United
States
of
Health Care
Ripe for Change!
7. What The US Did In 2010…
…Enact the Affordable Care Act
9. +And about that country…
Our $2.8 trillion health system is
unequivocally a major economic engine…
But the system is propelled by the volume of services, not
sufficiently by value
The degree to which cost exceeds value is an opportunity
cost – i.e., we might better spend the money some
other way – for example, on education
Expenditures on care not reflected in superior
health outcomes
For more fundamental reasons, Americans may be at
a health disadvantage relative to others
How much will more ―health care‖ solve this?

14. + Geographic Health Differences:
Your zip code matters more than your
genetic code
15. + Health Factors and Outcomes
Health Factors:
Low birth weight, tobacco use, adult obesity, physical
inactivity, alcohol use, sexually transmitted infections,
teen birth rate
Rates of uninsured, certain clinical care measures (e.g.
preventable hospital stays, screening)
Social and economic factors such as high school
graduation rates, employment and income, violent crime
rate, fast food restaurants
Environmental quality (safe drinking water), access to
recreational facilities
Health Outcomes: premature death; poor or fair health;
poor mental health days
19. + Institute of Medicine Study, January 2013
―For many years, Americans have been dying at younger
ages than people in almost all other high-income
countries.‖
―Not only are their lives shorter, but Americans also have a
longstanding pattern of poorer health that is strikingly
consistent and pervasive over the life course – at birth,
during childhood and adolescence,
for young and middle-aged adults, and
for older adults.‖
22. + Rising Mortality, Declining Life Expectancy
For Many
Trends in male and female mortality rates from 1992–96 to
2002–06 in 3,140 US counties.
Female mortality rates increased in 42.8 percent of
counties, while male mortality rates increased in only
3.4 percent.
Factors associated with areas that had lower mortality:
higher education levels; low smoking rates
Source: DA Kindig, ER Cheng,‖Even As Mortality Fell In Most US Counties, Female
Mortality Nonetheless Rose In 42.8 Percent Of Counties From 1992 To 2006.‖ Health
Affairs, March 2013
25. + What are we doing about these
challenges?
Good news: some efforts to tackle child obesity, for
example, seem to be working
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention data show
child obesity falling in 19 states, including Missouri
28. +
Hospitals’ New Roles in Population Health
New requirements under ACA on tax-exempt hospitals and
health systems
To retain 501(c)(3) [tax exempt] status, organization must
conduct a ―community health needs assessment‖ at least every
three years
Must adopt implementation strategy to meet the community
health needs identified through the assessment
Penalty: $50,000 excise tax for each year that a tax-exempt
hospital subject to these provisions fails to satisfy requirement

31. + ―Hot-spotting‖ unhealthy communities
King County Public Health Director
David Fleming
―The solutions to health in this
country lie beyond the walls of the
clinic and in our communities.‖
Echoing Jeffrey Brenner and the
Camden Coalition
What if hospitals and health systems
―hot spotted‖ – using similar
techniques to identify the nation’s
poorest and least healthy
communities—and then teamed up
with public health and local
community development
organizations to set them on a path to
better health?
32. + The fundamental drivers of health
―Improving health outcomes across the United States will
require increased public and private investment in the
social and environmental determinants of health—beyond
an exclusive focus on access to care or individual health
behavior.‖

33. Social determinants of health
+
Income and Income Distribution
Education
Employment or unemployment; job security; working
conditions
Early Childhood Development
Food Insecurity
Housing
Social Exclusion; Social Safety Network
Access to Health Services; Disability
Gender, Race, Aboriginal (Native American/Indian) Status
34. + The Social Determinants
―Ten Tips For Better Health‖
1. Don’t be poor. If you can, stop. If you can’t, try not to be poor for
long.
2. Don’t have poor parents.
3. Own a car.
4. Don’t work in a stressful, low-paid manual job.
5. Don’t live in damp, low-quality housing.
6. Be able to afford to go on a vacation and sunbathe.
7. Practice not losing your job and don’t become unemployed.
8. Make sure you have access to benefits, particularly if you are
unemployed, retired, or sick or disabled.
9. Don’t live next to a busy major road or near a polluting factory.
10. Learn how to fill in the complex housing benefit/shelter
application forms before you become homeless and destitute.

35. + Issues for hospitals and health systems
How do you broaden your focus beyond your ―population of
patients‖ (panel) to the overall health of the community?
Which among these social and economic determinants
should you focus on, how, and with whom?
How do you engage with the public health system?
How do you fund these activities or make the case for more
public and private funding of them?
Is there a particular role in transforming community health for
―repurposed‖ critical access hospitals?
36. + One Model – for critical access hospitals,
e.g.?
Maryland’s Total Patient Revenue Program – population
based rate method
10 rural hospitals in state operating under guaranteed global
budget
If revenue falls below budget hospitals can increase prices; if
exceeds budget they must return surplus
Western Maryland Hospital, e.g.: FY 2013 operating profit of
$15 million on $370 million in revenues; provides $ for
population health focus, care transitions programs, etc.
Admissions down 15 percent; 30 day readmission rate now 9
percent

After one year of Medicaid coverage, previously
uninsured adults in Oregon were 10 percent less
likely to report having depression
25 percent more likely to report their health as good,
very good, or excellent.
Also experienced lower financial strain because of
lower out-of-pocket expenditures, lower debt on
medical bills, and lower rates of refused medical
treatment because of medical debt

47. + Care Coordination/Avoidable hospital use
Advanced Illness/End of Life
Half of older Americans (51%) visited emergency
department in last month of life; 77% of those seen in ED
admitted to hospital
68% of admitted died in hospital
Americans’ broad preference is to die at home
Emergency department use in last month of life rare when
enrolled in hospice one month before death

Month of Life; Most Admitted To Hospital, And Many Die There,‖ Health Affairs, June 2012
48. + High-Value Health Care Collaborative
Cleveland Clinic, Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center, Denver
Health, Intermountain, Mayo, and nearly 20 others
Identified nine high volume, high cost, high variation
conditions to focus on:
total knee replacement
diabetes
congestive heart failure
depression
spine surgery
labor and delivery
asthma
hip surgery
bariatric surgery
49. + Variability, even among ―the best‖
Pooled data to examine differences in primary total knee
replacements (total US costs in 2008 = $9 billion)
Found substantial variations in such metrics as hospital
lengths-of-stay; longer operating times associated with
higher complication rates
Used findings to alter care, including more coordinated
management for complex patients

51. Care Moving Out of Hospitals:
―Hospital At Home‖
Presbyterian Health Services,
New Mexico, in partnership with
Johns Hopkins
Identified patients who could be
―hospitalized‖ at home and
deployed physicians and nurses
to care for them
All results equal or better than in
hospital
Variable costs per stay are
$1000-$2000 lower = 19%
Patient satisfaction mean score =
90.7%

56. + Reengineering Primary Care at
Virginia Mason via Lean
Lean concept of jidoka - having the instructions and knowledge necessary to do one’s job
right the first time
Result: new ―standard work‖ in appointment scheduling
When a patient requests appointment, patient services representative checks the
computer to identify preventive tests patient is due for and schedules them right at the
point of service
Lean concept of having each team member doing the right work for their skill level, also
known as level loading or heijunka
Some tasks that physicians handled reassigned to others
Medical assistants practice to the top of certification, going through the problem list with
the patient, reviewing medication lists, verifying allergies, reviewing test results and
administering vaccines.

57. + Patient Engagement and Activation
Engagement = actions that people take for their health or health
care
Activation = understanding own role in care process and having
knowledge, skills and confidence to take it on
Increasingly understood as a distinguishable factor in achieving
Triple Aim (better health, better care, lower costs)
58. + Patient Activation Measure
Gauges the knowledge, skills and confidence essential to managing
one’s own health and healthcare
13-item questionnaire; patients rate selves on a scale
Statements include
“When all is said and done, I am the person who is responsible
for managing my health condition.
“I am confident that I can take actions that will help prevent or
minimize some symptoms or problems associated with my
health condition.
“I know what each of my prescribed medications do.”
Measure segments consumers into one of four progressively higher
activation levels
Source: Judith Hibbard et al, Health Affairs, Feb. 2013
59. + Patient Activation Measure
Patient activation and the ―3 M’s‖
It can be measured
It can be moved – patients’ low scores can be improved via
engagement over time
It matters – the degree to which patients are activated
predicts their factors such as their success in medication
adherence, use of emergency department, and their
likelihood of having avoidable readmissions

71. + ACOs in Private Sector – e.g., Blue Shield of
California
Launched pilot ACO with Dignity Health (formerly Catholic
Health Care West) and Hill Physicians in January 2010 for
41,000 CalPERS employees and dependents
Global budget; shared upside and downside risk
Tactics included eliminating unnecessary care, such as excessive
bariatric surgery; coordinating processes such as discharge
planning; reducing variation in practices and resources; reducing
pharmacy costs
2010-11 combined results: $37 million in savings to CalPERS;
compounded annual growth rate for per member per month costs
was ~ 3% vs. ~7% for everyone else
72. + Medical homes in Private Sector
Alabama Health Improvement Initiative Medical Home Pilot –
Blue Cross Blue Shield of Alabama
Health plans in Maryland, Pennsylvania, Ohio, elsewhere
reporting savings from medical homes
E.g., in Maryland, CareFirst reported 2.7% savings in health
costs for its 1 million members in 2012
Group Health-University of Washington: TEAMcare program
for people with depression and either diabetes, heart disease
or both, saved as much as $594 per patient in outpatient
costs after expenses of program
73. + Performance-based Innovations under
CMS
Programs to reduce unnecessary readmissions
Partnership for Patients, Community-Based Care Transitions program
(organizations paid an all-inclusive rate per eligible discharge based on cost
of care transition services)
Medicare penalties: hospitals above certain ratios for 30-day readmissions in
3 conditions (heart attack, heart failure, pneumonia) begin to be penalized
under Medicare in October 2012
Readmissions rates in Medicare dropped 1 percentage from an average of 19
percent during 2008-2011 to 17.8 percent in 2012, according to CMS
Declines largest in hospitals participating in Partnership for Patients.

homes
• Minnesota: majority of population in ACO’s, including
long-term services and
supports
• Oregon: ―Coordinated Care

77. Overall Trends
+
Care moving out of hospital to ambulatory settings and
homes; inpatient utilization falling
Primary care fees up; hospital reimbursement down
Emphasis on team-based care with ―task-shifting‖
Primary care physician panels becoming larger; 1
physician in a team handling10,000 patients considered
goal in many systems
Population health approach dramatically increases
emphasis on prevention and patient engagement
