The Commoditization of Healthcare
• Great news – everything’s getting better – and cheaper– and more accessible
• Bad news – providers are a dime-a-dozen

What Are Bundled Payments?
• Episode - all services provided to a patient related to a specific medical problem in a limited timeframe
• Bundle – all services provided during an episode for which “you” are financially responsible
“Fixed
price”

If I Don’t Participate?
•Lose patients•How many patients do you have to lose to be out of business?
•30%, 20%, 10% ?
![Page 12: Bundled Payments: The Impact on IT April, 2014. If you remember just one thing….. Your next CFO isn’t coming from the health industry. Your next CFO is.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110320/56649c9e5503460f9495e9b5/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Planning/executing your project
•Getting started•Determining bundles•Contracting•Workflow•Cost management•Monitoring performance
![Page 13: Bundled Payments: The Impact on IT April, 2014. If you remember just one thing….. Your next CFO isn’t coming from the health industry. Your next CFO is.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110320/56649c9e5503460f9495e9b5/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Getting Started
• Secure project champion• Develop multidisciplinary team
– Gain physician “buy-in” early and often• Identify key success factors• Identify key performance analytics (KPIs) • Establish baselines – gather historical data• Build cost accounting models for case tracking
![Page 14: Bundled Payments: The Impact on IT April, 2014. If you remember just one thing….. Your next CFO isn’t coming from the health industry. Your next CFO is.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110320/56649c9e5503460f9495e9b5/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Determining Bundles
•You’re building a model(s)•Acute vs. chronic situations•Limiting exposure while maintaining quality •Clinical/finance involvement in design•Redeveloping care models
![Page 15: Bundled Payments: The Impact on IT April, 2014. If you remember just one thing….. Your next CFO isn’t coming from the health industry. Your next CFO is.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110320/56649c9e5503460f9495e9b5/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Determining Bundles
•Where to start?– What you’re good at– What you can control– Areas of excellence / best practices– MS-DRG if you’re a hospital– High volume
![Page 16: Bundled Payments: The Impact on IT April, 2014. If you remember just one thing….. Your next CFO isn’t coming from the health industry. Your next CFO is.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110320/56649c9e5503460f9495e9b5/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Determining Bundles
•Questions to answer– What products/services are in/out?– What have we done in the past?– What is redundant/unnecessary ?– Where can we leverage control?– What causes “outliers”?
![Page 17: Bundled Payments: The Impact on IT April, 2014. If you remember just one thing….. Your next CFO isn’t coming from the health industry. Your next CFO is.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110320/56649c9e5503460f9495e9b5/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Determining Bundles
•Many answers (currently) in claims data– The only structured data source we have– Your internal systems (billing)– Business partner (payer)– CMS data
•Start and end point (warranty)•Commercial products can help
![Page 18: Bundled Payments: The Impact on IT April, 2014. If you remember just one thing….. Your next CFO isn’t coming from the health industry. Your next CFO is.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110320/56649c9e5503460f9495e9b5/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Determining Bundles
•Example analysis1. Extract historical claims related to bundle
• Requires a claims-based bundle definition2. Calculate total reimbursement per patient
• Use target date range window (e.g., 180 days)
• This will begin to give you an idea of a target reimbursement for the episode.
![Page 19: Bundled Payments: The Impact on IT April, 2014. If you remember just one thing….. Your next CFO isn’t coming from the health industry. Your next CFO is.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110320/56649c9e5503460f9495e9b5/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Determining Bundles
•Example analysis3. Segregate model claims from potentially
avoidable claims (PAC)• Model claims are those experienced for
the “typical” patient• PACs are those that can potentially be
eliminated due to issues such as comorbidity or errors
![Page 20: Bundled Payments: The Impact on IT April, 2014. If you remember just one thing….. Your next CFO isn’t coming from the health industry. Your next CFO is.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110320/56649c9e5503460f9495e9b5/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Determining Bundles
•Example analysis4. Sum/average in ranges of 10% of target
• If target is $25,000/episode, sort by ranges of $2,500
• See example on next slide
![Page 21: Bundled Payments: The Impact on IT April, 2014. If you remember just one thing….. Your next CFO isn’t coming from the health industry. Your next CFO is.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110320/56649c9e5503460f9495e9b5/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Determining Bundles
•Example analysis5. This gives a general target of current
reimbursement for the episode.6. From here, drill down to determine:
• What can be eliminated from the model• Current costs / how to reduce• How to systematically identify the
outliers (those episodes above $30K in our example) to exclude in the contract.

Contracting
• Gainsharing and withhold models• Employer-provider contracting bypassing insurance companies
• Physician directed models – the hospital as a resource
• Including non-medical services in bundles• Billing for bundles in a fee-for-service world• Patient/provider contracts
![Page 26: Bundled Payments: The Impact on IT April, 2014. If you remember just one thing….. Your next CFO isn’t coming from the health industry. Your next CFO is.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110320/56649c9e5503460f9495e9b5/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Contracting
•Examples of excluded conditions– BMI > 33, A1C > 6.5, anemia– Significant depression/drug use/abuse
•Examples of excluded services– Inpatient/outpatient rehab

Workflow
•Clinical and IT– Operating both FFS and BP treatment models– Operating both FFS and BP billing models– Standards (and lack of) in bundled payments– The effects of bundles on analytics
![Page 29: Bundled Payments: The Impact on IT April, 2014. If you remember just one thing….. Your next CFO isn’t coming from the health industry. Your next CFO is.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110320/56649c9e5503460f9495e9b5/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Workflow
•Treating bundled patients– Different than traditional patients?– Case management– Ongoing tracking of costs (services)

Workflow
•Billing bundled patients– Effects on charge capture– Automation of different billing models
• “Dummy” 837• “Conventional” invoicing
– Effects on payment processing
![Page 31: Bundled Payments: The Impact on IT April, 2014. If you remember just one thing….. Your next CFO isn’t coming from the health industry. Your next CFO is.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110320/56649c9e5503460f9495e9b5/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Workflow
•The effects of bundles on analytics– Example: pro-rating payments
•Metric: average reimbursement for a service
– FFS: 835 ties payment to service– BP: What portion of payment is assigned
to a service?

Cost Management
•The key to profitability– Cost accounting methods and systems– Issues in tracking costs by case– Standardizing care to leverage purchasing
and reducing costs– Expanding the bundle process to FFS– Broadening the scope of services

Cost Management
•Question:– How do we know if we’re making money?
•Answer:– If revenue exceeds cost.
![Page 38: Bundled Payments: The Impact on IT April, 2014. If you remember just one thing….. Your next CFO isn’t coming from the health industry. Your next CFO is.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110320/56649c9e5503460f9495e9b5/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Cost Management
•What are costs?– The usual suspects (payroll, supplies, …..)– Direct costs (implants)– Indirect costs (administration, regulatory)
•FFS ties direct costs (implants) thru billing– Sometimes
•Reality: Healthcare lags industry in cost management

Cost Management
•Cost management/reduction issues– Understanding current costs– Cost reduction: standardizing care– Cost elimination: process change– Expanding the bundle process to FFS
• Reduces revenue, also!– Broadening the scope of services
• ↑ costs & ↑ revenue

Cost Management
•Questions– Where can we influence clinical behavior to
drive cost (down)?– How can we model volume against
profitability?

Cost Management
• Issues– Collecting granular data at the expense of
identifying key cost drivers– Support of changing BP models with lessons
learned – flexible cost accounting model– Consistency and timeliness

Cost Management
•Keys factors– Strike a balance: translate/crosswalk finance
level to/from patient level views– Line managers have info on source systems
for data feeds– Charge level costing models: time/activity
based, RVU, direct?
