Harnessing the Power of Predictive ModelingFuture Trends
• Traditional Applications• Recent Applications• Future Trends
– Motivation Index– Forecasting Disease Specific Risk– Provider Market
• Forecasting Preventable Events
Predictive ModelsTraditional Applications
• Risk Stratify the Population for care management– Manage complexly ill members (Inpatient avoidance)– Refine disease management strategies– Manage pharmacy services
• Underwrite more accurately• Reimburse based on illness burden• Evaluate physician management strategies
Predictive ModelsChanging Focus
• Traditional Application has been to Identify: – High Risk / High Cost members– Inpatient Risk
• Recent Applications – Forecasting additional Cost Components
• ER Visit Risk• Pharmacy Cost forecasting
– Identify Intervenable or Actionable members
• Future Trends – Member Motivation– Disease Specific Complications– Preventable Events for the Provider Market
Recent ApplicationIdentifying Actionable Members
• Method A– Query population by multiple filters:
• Disease• Cost Risk• Inpatient Risk• Pharmacy Risk• Mover Risk
• Method B – Impact Index : Model that identifies members who
have the greatest potential for outcome improvement based on guideline compliance

Future TrendsMotivation Index
• Identify members – more motivated to ‘self-manage’– comply with instructions from providers– pursue ways to improve health status
• To create index use data sources– Lifestyle Data– Health Risk Assessment – Demographics– Claims Data
Future TrendsMotivation Index Drivers
• Lifestyle Data– Net Worth– Credit History– Magazine Subscriptions– Hobbies– Clubs
• Claims Data– Compliance Patterns– Preventive Care– Physician Visit Patterns
ClaritasUS Census BureauMedia Mark
Future TrendsMotivation Index Variables
• Claims Data– Compliance Patterns
• To Guidelines• To Psych-Related Drugs• To Maintenance Drugs
– Preventive Care• Use of preventive health services• Compliance to Preventive Lab Test• Compliance to standard preventive guidelines
– Physician Visit Patterns• Gap/Frequency between Acute Care & Physician visits• Gap/Frequency between Physician visits per disease
– Cost Ratios for Inpt / Rehab / Rx / Physician
• Demographic / Misc– Age/Sex– Obesity / Smoking– Drug/Alcohol Dependency– Mental Health
Future TrendsMotivation Index Drivers
• Patients with higher motivation scores have
– Better guideline compliance – Older age– Higher preventive care use – Lower acute-care use– Shorter (Time-frames from Inpt discharge to phys-visit)– Females 40 t0 65
• Higher mammogram compliance– Asthmatics
• Lower ER visits– Hypertension
• Higher hypertensive drug use– Depression
• Higher depression related drug use

Future TrendsProvider Market
• Future Trend– Forecasting Preventable Events Pre-discharge
• Preventable readmissions• Catheter-Associated UTI • Pressure Ulcers• Vascular Catheter-Associated Infection • Mediastinitis after CABG-Surgical Site Infection • Hospital-Acquired Injuries
Future TrendsWhy Identify Potentially Preventable Readmissions?
• Comparing provider performance to enhance quality• Developing pay for performance systems• Readmission rates provide quality benchmark• Costs associated with readmissions are substantial
– 30 billion in play for Medicare• Defining Preventable Readmissions
– some initial discharges for which subsequent readmits excluded (e.g. LAMA, cystic fibrosis)
– Readmissions are for same diagnosis– Readmissions are for related diagnosis
Future TrendsData for Forecasting Preventable Events
• Electronic Medical Record Data– HL7 Format – Near-real time data outflow
• Forecasting Model– Near-real time forecast of Readmission / Decubitus
• Probability• Risk Index• Drivers
• Data Needed– Vital Signs– Lab Results– Drug Dosage and Timing– Admission Discharge Transfer Data– Chief Complaint – Prior Discharge Diagnoses– Supplies
Future TrendsForecasting Decubitus
• Drivers to forecasting Risk of Decubitus when a patient is admitted– Vital Signs
• Fever• Pulse / BP / Respirations
– Lab Results• White Blood Cell Counts• Blood Culture Results
– Drug Dosage and Timing• Antibiotic at admission
– Chief Complaint – Diarrhea– Admission Source
• From SNF– Prior Discharge Diagnoses
• Diabetes / CHF / Senility– Demographics– Supplies
• Depends
