The Vision for a Multi-Payer Model•Use the CMS Multi-Payer Advanced Primary Care
Practice demo as a catalyst to redesign MI primary care▫Multiple payers will fund a common clinical model▫Allows global primary care transformation efforts▫Support development of evidence-based care models
•Create a model that can be broadly disseminated▫Facilitate measurable, significant improvements in
population health for our Michigan residents▫Bend the current (non-sustainable) cost curve▫Contribute to national models for primary care redesign
•Form a strong foundation for successful ACO models
5
Practice Participation Criteria
•Criteria: Continuous PGIP or NCQA designation•Part of a participating PO/PHO/IPA•Maintain key PCMH capabilities (e.g., extended
access; 30% same-day scheduling; registry, etc.)•Agree to work on the four selected focus initiatives:oCare Managemento Self-Management SupportoCare Coordinationo Linkage to Community Services

PCMH as the Foundation for ACO Population Management
12Source: Premier Healthcare Alliance
The goal of Accountable Care Organizations should be to reduce, or at least control the growth of, healthcare costs while maintaining or improving the quality of care patients receive (in terms of both clinical quality, patient experience and satisfaction). - Harold Miller
IV. Most complex

Managing Populations: Stratified approach to patient care and
care management
4
MiPCT Care Management Principles•Care managers work in close proximity to PCP team
▫In PCP office as much as possible▫Work with PCP team to meet their needs▫Evidence supports this model as superior to vendor-
based•Focus on Chronic Disease and Complex Care
▫Manage high-complexity, high-cost patients and those who are likely to benefit from care management
▫Patients selected based on risk score plus PCP input•Focus on evidence-based interventions
▫Medication reconciliation▫Care transitions▫In-person contact with patients whenever possible▫Comprehensive and coordinated care plan
16
MiPCT PO/Practice Expectations•Care management
▫Performed for appropriate high and moderate risk individuals ▫Transitions of care promptly coordinated
•Population management▫Registry functionality▫Proactive patient outreach ▫Point of care alerts for services due
•Access improvement▫24/7 access to clinician▫30% same-day access▫Extended hours
16
Resources To POs, Practices
17
Care Management Resources •For launch, partnered with Geisinger for Care
Management training▫How to identify patients for care management▫Tools for care management deliver that draw from best
practices▫How to integrate within your practice
•Over 400 care managers trained!▫National and local evidence-based models▫Also allow credit for existing PO/PHO training models

MiPCT/MiHIN/CareBridge Admission, Discharge, Transfer (ADT) Electronic Alerting
• Provided via project (at no cost to PO) • Allows Care Managers near-real-time web-based ADT alerting for timely initiation of
transition care (Trinity, HFHS, UM, Beaumont, Oakwood, McLaren, etc.
Incorporating the Voice of Patients•Statewide Patient Advisory Council with
representatives from across the state▫Real patients and families served by the program▫Advise on program design and operation
•Launch of patient and family advisors within primary care practices (in partnership with the Institute for Patient and Family-Centered Care and the Greater Detroit Area Health Council)
Team Development Resources•Goal: Build on PCMH team-based capabilities
▫Using team members to the maximum capability of their roles and licenses
▫Clearly define roles for physicians, nurses, medical assistants, front office staff, and all other team members (social workers, pharmacists, dieticians, etc.)
•Updates and Dialogue with Physician Organizations as key partners and supporters of practice teams
•Facilitated learning opportunities for practice teams▫ Examples: Practice Collaboratives (e.g., team-based care, billing
and coding, etc.) , Practice Coaching, webinars, etc.

Cost, Quality and UtilizationNational and State Metrics
25
How Will We Define Success?
26
Utilization and Cost Metrics: MI and National Evaluations are Consistent
•Total PMPM Costs▫Medicare Payments (National)▫Utilization based standardized cost
calculations across all participating payers (Michigan)
▫Additional analysis of cost categories•Utilization
▫All-cause hospitalizations▫Ambulatory care sensitive hospitalizations▫All-cause ED visits▫‘Potentially preventable’ ED visits
27
2012-14 Quality and Experience of Care Metrics: MI and National Evaluations are
Different, But Share Common Elements (Discussion in process re:
2015/16)
NationalDiabetes care:•LDL-C screening •HbA1c testing •Retinal eye examination •Medical attention for nephropathy•All 4 diabetes tests•None of the 4 diabetes tests
Ischemic Vascular Disease: •Total lipid panel test
Patient experience (CAHPS)
Michigan•Diabetes•Asthma•Hypertension•Cardiovascular•Obesity•Adult preventive care•Child preventive care•Childhood lead screening (Medicaid)
•Patient experience (CAHPS)•Provider/staff experience

“I would like to see care management in my practice
continue”
Good News!The report found that the
in its first year, the demonstration produced an estimated $4.2 million in savings for Medicare. Importantly, the rate of growth in Medicare FFS
health care expenditures was reduced in Vermont
and Michigan, driven largely by reduced growth in inpatient expenditures. For Michigan, this was
estimated at about $148 per full-year eligible
Medicare beneficiary.
First Annual MAPCP Report• MiPCT’s year 1 estimated savings = $27.8 million
▫ $148 per full-year eligible Medicare FFS beneficiary
• Results are preliminary ▫ Future years of evaluation are required to confirm
whether results persist over time• Future reports will address quality
39
Sustainability and Funding For the Long Term (post 2016)
40
What Does Sustainability Mean?• To the Health Plan: Added value for their
customers
• To the Practice: Maintaining and growing CM staffing, processes and roles
• To the PO: Payment reform for CM
• To the State and Patients: Servicing all patients, all payers; Improved value, quality and experience of care
41
Our Own Governor’s Advocacy for MiPCT Continuity
Pre-Extension Payer Sustainability Statement "As participating Michigan Primary Care Transformation Project (MiPCT) payers, we recognize the value of care management embedded in primary care practices. We applaud CMS' recent payment proposal to continue funding for complex care coordination after the December 31, 2014 ending period of the demonstration project. We support continuation of this model of care to produce improvements in patient experience, quality and the value of care. We look forward to working together with the partnership of the MiPCT, the plans and the health care providers in improving Michigan's primary care system."
• 2015 Physician Fee Schedule includes revised Medicare monthly 99490 code for non-face-to-face chronic care management language
▫ Effective January 1, 2015 at rate of ~$41/month (expectation of at least 20 min of clinical services per month) for: Medicare Beneficiaries with 2+ chronic conditions that place the patient at significant
risk of death, acute exacerbation/decompensation, or functional decline; and For whom care coordination services would be expected to last at least 12 months or
until the death of the patient
▫ MiPCT submitted comments on potential improvements and enhancements in future years Discouraging CMS from imposing patient financial responsibility for care management
services Enhance payment rate; Existing rate is not sufficient level of contact with patient and to
provide for care management

Relationship to Other Key Initiatives
The Michigan Primary Care Transformation Project (MiPCT) is an underpinning and foundation of the State Innovation Model (SIM) recently awarded to the State.
The MiPCT is also a basis for primary care transformation in the Michigan Blueprint and Healthy Michigan programs.
The MiPCT has enabled a state-wide voluntary data base, standardized care management training model that is evidence-based, and served to assist providers in the movement to reimbursement based on value.

GOAL: To sustain our gains (effective, efficient team-based care with embedded Care Managers) post-
demonstration period
What We’ve Learned• Care manager integration is not plug-and-play, and requires all of the
following for optimal success:▫ Fully functioning team, including physician buy-in▫ IT that allows information sharing among team▫ Effective population risk stratification▫ Notification of transitions in care, ideally electronic
• “Sticking to the knitting” with effective interventions pays off (execute, execute, execute)
• POs, practice teams, patients, purchasers and payers really do have common goals
• Multi-payer support for a common model and a platform for effective scaling are key
• This window of opportunity will not come again. We must fully leverage it to maximize returns on investment for all stakeholders
