• Outlook negative
• “$3 trillion healthcare industry is in the midst of the most far reaching changes it has seen”
• Not-for-profit hospitals exhausting methods to maintain operating margins
• Not-for-profit hospitals at a “tipping point” facing decreasing ability to offset changes and negative trends
• Outlook negative (since 2008)
• Low revenue growth and shrinking volumes
• Expenses growing faster than revenues
• Outlook negative
• Uncertainty and challenges from payment reform and reduced volumes

Any arrangement between a provider and a payer in which the provider:• Agrees to furnish care to a defined group of the payer’s members
(a.k.a. the population) • Accomplishes three things:
1. Improve the member’s medical outcomes 2. Reduce the group’s per-capita costs3. Contractually capture the bulk of the savings from the value created in
numbers 1 and 2
ACOs are a population health arrangement.

Volume to Value: Commitment to Change

Population Health: All Things to All People
“We’re focused on population health as opposed to fee-for-service medicine”
“Our Mobile Acute Care Team will treat patients
at home…”
“[The] Preventable Admissions Care Team
provides transitional care services to high
readmission risk patients”
13
“The system includes 6,600 primary care and
specialty physicians”
“…45 ambulatory practices, 31 affiliated
health centers and more than 40 relationships with local physicians”
“Ironically, Mount Sinai’s number one mission is to
keep people out of the hospital”
Population Health: All Things to All People
14
• “[7 year old] Heather had a baseball-sized, cancerous tumor lodged among her major organs”
• “In a 23-hour surgery, Dr. Tomoaki Kato temporarily removed 6 major organs in order to remove the tumor”
Population Health: Specialty Focus
15
Mount Sinai: CFO Wants 2nd Opinion!
• Significant from a hospital of this stature (Nationally ranked in 16 specialties—national top 10 ranking in 3 specialties)
• Commitment to change—now what?• The challenge to specialty-focused systems:
• Reconciling scale and historic investment focus with requirements of value-based care payment and delivery
Net Revenue: $1.9B Operating Margin: -0.8%
Clinics & Health Centers: 76 System Physicians: 6,600
Inpatient Beds: 1,171 Annual ER Visits: 100k+
16
Population Health Commitment Scale
• How to ‘manage down’ inpatient utilization with existing resources while depending on inpatient for survival?
• Mount Sinai decided they were not able to accomplish population health goals alone, and grew• Invested $4.8M in continuum merger, alone
• “Bigger is better as hospitals and doctors take on more financial risk under contracts that offer more incentives for quality and efficiency” – Dr. Kenneth Davis, Mount Sinai CEO
2012 2013 2014 2015
Public commitment to population health
Continuum merger (adds 3 hospitals)

Population Health Commitment Scale
• Bundled-payment—small scale population health commitment• Medicare BPCI Model 2,
“Retrospective Acute and Post Acute Care Episode”
• 48 clinical episode options• Episode includes inpatient
stay, post acute care and related services during 30/60/90 day episode length
• Model 2 payment methodology:
$15,000
$17,000
$1,500
$3,500
• Small scale commitment, but significant relative risk!• Majority of costs incurred
outside the hospital (avg. 70%)!• Cost reduction and care
management understanding gained via analysis of self- insured health plan claims

Population Health Commitment Scale
• Massachusetts Hospital CEO/CFO:
• “We didn’t analyze the impact, but we can’t afford not to do it…”
• “We feel it’s a manageable risk”• “…we need to learn care
management—even if we lose money.”
• 170 bed, $200M+ Net Rev.• Example clinical episodes:
• Acute myocardial infarction• AICD generator or lead• Amputation• Atherosclerosis• Cardiac arrhythmia• Cellulitis• Cervical spinal fusion
Massachusetts Medicare BPCI Models 1-4 Participants
19
• 470 bed regional referral center, 270-physician medical group• Goal: “…transform the health system from fee for service to
population health based payment and care delivery.”• 2014, developed a comprehensive population health strategy:
• Designed a clinically integrated network (CIN) to support the population health transition
• Supported leadership and staff in making the CIN operational• Developed care management and clinical informatics infrastructure
to support future development of the CIN and pursuit of population health care delivery and payment

HDHP and Care Coordination
22
Value Capture for Beginners
• HDHP Redesign and Care Coordination• Self Insured Employee Health Plan HDHP redesign
• Benefit improvement for most members• Lower health care costs• Lower workers’ comp premiums, costs• Lower lost and modified-duty workdays• Lower employee turnover• Improved employee morale
• Intensive Care Coordination with Self Insured Population• Addresses neediest patient population first• Develops higher quality and more cost effective interventions• Potential to predict and prevent complex chronic disease• Laboratory for care coordination• Develops PCMH and ACO-relevant capabilities• Grows understanding of staffing and technology needs
23
HDHP Growth
24
• “HDHPs with at least a $1,000 deductible significantly reduced healthcare spending”
• “Families enrolling in HDHPs or CDHPs for the first time spent 14% less than similar families enrolled in conventional plans”
• Care management is critical: “…reduced the use of
preventive care in the first year”
• “[The study] analyzed claims data for 800k+ households from 53 large US employers”

Out of 51 unique plan members receiving hypertension and ischemic heart disease treatment in 2014:
• 34 of the 51 unique plan members incurred hypertension related service costs in 2014, without ischemic heart disease-related treatment
• 24 members sought hypertension treatment from a single provider
• 10 members sought hypertension treatment from multiple providers• 8 out of these 10 members were aged 45+ and therefore entering an advanced
average risk stage for heart disease• Combining this information with prior personal and family medical history
(including smoking history) could be predictive• Assuming a high risk level, and historical tier 2 ischemic heart disease cost of
approx. $22k (from previous slide), these 10 members could incur an additional combined $179k in annual ischemic heart disease-related care if not managed
Identifying Patients in Need
32
Health Plan Value Capture
• Operate primary and specialty care clinics and two health plan products (Medicare Advantage and a TRICARE plan)
• Support of strategic goals for business growth and product development
• Mission: provider better care at lower cost to the communities served by its providers and plan products.• Pursuing 3x overall enterprise economic scale growth• Grow Medicare Advantage plan business• Improve business line operating and financial performance

33
• Collaborate in future population-based payment and delivery
• 5 hospitals formed the Maine Rural Health Collaborative (MRHC) to pursue this strategic imperative
• Developed business plan to leverage combined strengths in primary care, quality and collective covered lives to pursue syndicated funding sources for investment in cost and quality improvement
• Pursuit of other joint operating and quality improvement initiatives
Network Value Capture
• Collaboration between three rural community hospitals and one academic medical center partner
• Ensure access to quality care within the communities in which our patients live
• Provide local and high quality care with positive outcomes to our patients in Coos County
• Control the cost of care by through innovative programs and the use of shared resources

Positioning for the Future: ACOs

National ACO Growth
• Nationally, 426 MSSP ACOs as of January 2015• 70% of the U.S.
population now live in localities served by ACOs and almost
• 44% percent of the U.S. population live in areas served by two or more ACOs
• 16% of total Medicare fee-for-service beneficiaries in MSSP ACOs
