Beleaguered US Healthcare SystemCost Drivers
Aging population Smoking, obesity Uncoordinated care Prevalence of chronic disease Non-participating patients/caregivers Archaic financial foundation Workforce fatigue, apathy
![Page 4: AARC’s 2015 & Beyond Initiative: What Does it Mean?](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/568153cf550346895dc1c514/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Cost Drivers
• Aging population– Population ≥ 60 yrs. Fastest growing
• Smoking, obesity• Diabetes• Hypertension• Heart disease
– Significantly higher than European countries– CDC 80% preventable!
• Poor attention to health & wellness
![Page 5: AARC’s 2015 & Beyond Initiative: What Does it Mean?](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/568153cf550346895dc1c514/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Cost Drivers
• Chronic disease prevalence– 2/3 of annual expenditures– Only 50% receive recommended care
• Evidence-based standards of care
• Non-participating patients/caregivers– Episodic care vs. continuing care– Exacerbations vs. disease management
• January 1, 2010 (MIPPA 2008)
![Page 6: AARC’s 2015 & Beyond Initiative: What Does it Mean?](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/568153cf550346895dc1c514/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Cost Drivers
• Uncoordinated care– Duplicative
– Delayed• Sicker, less stable
– Fragmented• Medical errors, misadventures
– Lack of continuity• Not a seamless transition
![Page 7: AARC’s 2015 & Beyond Initiative: What Does it Mean?](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/568153cf550346895dc1c514/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Cost Drivers
• Archaic hospital financial model
– Clipboard/pen vs. digital
– Unforgiving credit markets ability to raise capital
municipal/state credit worthiness
indigent care• Un-insured, under-insured
– Impact of global economic crisis
– Closures, layoffs

Other Cost Drivers
Task oriented practitioners Maintain the status quo Provincial view Profound change a threat Fatigued
Inefficient practices Inane orders v/s protocol directed care Wasted teachable moments
![Page 9: AARC’s 2015 & Beyond Initiative: What Does it Mean?](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/568153cf550346895dc1c514/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Other Cost Drivers
Anachronistic hospital structure Silo mentality Department v/s Service Traditional metrics of limited value
Inconsistent leadership Professional malaise Lack of vision
Limited vision w/ lacking skill set

Recidivism the primary driver of repeat hospitalizations
Inability and/or unwillingness to adhere to prescribed maintenance medications for symptom control

Asthma
22 million affected > 6 million children
497,000 admissions Failure to control symptoms
Since 1998, deaths are down < 4,000/yr
$19 billion annual expenditures > 75% for direct medical costs
12 mm lost school days; 14 mm lost work days
![Page 22: AARC’s 2015 & Beyond Initiative: What Does it Mean?](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/568153cf550346895dc1c514/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Cost Impact of Asthma
Influenced by degree of individual control & exacerbation avoidance
Emergent care more costly than scheduled out-patient care
Non-medical, indirect costs substantial
Guideline driven care cost-effective
![Page 23: AARC’s 2015 & Beyond Initiative: What Does it Mean?](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/568153cf550346895dc1c514/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Obstructive Sleep Apnea
18 million affected 6 mm with moderate to severe ≤ 10% diagnosed & treated
Morbidity-mortality data lacking 38,000 deaths due to cardio-vascular issues Direct health costs 2% of total
Drowsy driving ≥ 100,000 MVA per year 40,000 injuries; 1,550 deaths ? Work-related injuries, productivity

Respiratory Diseases
Affect millions Millions more yet to be diagnosed
Cost billions Recidivism driven Usually a critical care component
Are predominantly chronic Usually diagnosed later rather than sooner Hospital has limited impact after discharge
Chronic care different than acute care

Crossing the Quality ChasmA New Health System for the 21st Century
Chronic conditions Illness lasting > 3 months but not self-limiting Leading cause of illness, disability and death100 million Americans, two-thirds under age 65> 60% of annual expendituresCare differs from acute (episodic)
15 “top priority” conditionsEmphysema/COPD Asthma

Workforce Study
2007 by CA Respiratory Care Board Identify trends in workplace
Provide input for scope of practice purposes
Evaluate supply-demand status
Gauge perceptions/attitudes of licensed RTs
Establish data base for future decisions

Concurrent Therapy
![Page 28: AARC’s 2015 & Beyond Initiative: What Does it Mean?](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/568153cf550346895dc1c514/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Protocol Care
![Page 29: AARC’s 2015 & Beyond Initiative: What Does it Mean?](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/568153cf550346895dc1c514/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
How Widespread is Protocol Care?
![Page 30: AARC’s 2015 & Beyond Initiative: What Does it Mean?](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/568153cf550346895dc1c514/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Key Findings
Workplace policies - specifically the use of protocols, concurrent therapy and triage - influenced how RTs felt about their job and the quality of care they provided to their patients.
RTs using protocols were significantly more satisfied with the quality of patient care.
The use of concurrent therapy and triage was associated with lower levels of satisfaction with the quality of patient care.
Additionally, use of both was also associated with lower levels of overall job satisfaction, satisfaction with workload, and involvement in decisions.

Health Promotion & Disease Prevention
AARC Position Statement (2005)
RT as a health educator; a collaborator To instill the ability to improve a patient’s quality
and longevity of life
Not hi-tech, but huge cost impact!
Collaborative health care Those afflicted assume self-care responsibilities Activated consumers an ally
![Page 32: AARC’s 2015 & Beyond Initiative: What Does it Mean?](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/568153cf550346895dc1c514/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Health Promotion & Disease Prevention
Chronic disease state managementRisk factors, triggers, medication management,
symptom control, exacerbation avoidance
Pulmonary function screeningAt risk population – smokers 45 yrs or older
Tobacco controlCessation & abstinence
Community preparedness

What About Respiratory Care?
Patient demand to increase
Transformation of traditional roles From single tasks to bundles From task doer to decision-maker
Performance expectations to increase Educational preparation challenges Continuing competency issues
Novel strategic planning essential!

Disease Management
“A system of coordinated healthcare interventions and communications for
populations with chronic medical conditions in which patient self-care
efforts are significant to control symptoms”

Goals of Disease Management
• Reduce rate of disease progression
Eliminate/reduce risk factors
Control symptoms
Reduce recidivism
Facilitate activities of daily living
Enhance quality/duration of life
Provide a positive cost-benefit
