U.S. Trends – Health CareU.S. Trends – Health Care
• 1934-1939 – Great Depression – 25% unemployment rate – Roosevelt enacts SSA as part of the “New Deal”
• 1939 – AHA creates Blue Cross – embracing concept of “prepaid health”
• 1945 – Blue Cross serves 59% of the health insurance market
• 1946 – Prepaid MD service plans affiliate and form Blue Shield
• 1954 – IRS solidifies idea of “prepaid” insurance with tax deduction

U.S. Trends – Health CareU.S. Trends – Health Care
• 1965 – Medicare/Medicaid created by Pres. Johnson (Title XIX to SSA)– Health Care Spending as a % of GDP is 5.7%– Life Expectancy for males is 66 and for females
is 71.7– Almost 75% of Americans have private
insurance– In 1966, Medicare serves 19.1M → 47M today– In 1966, Medicaid serves 10M → 49M today

– Only 37% of physicians practice Primary Care medicine– Only 8% of Med School graduates go into Primary Care
• PPACA will cover 16M more Americans by 2014– “Our first available appointment is in 3 months”– Today there is only time for episodic treatment

• PCMH Initiatives– 27 multi-stakeholder projects in 20
states– 21 states with single, commercial payer
project– 38 states with Medicaid/CHIP projects– Only 5 states without PCMH
18
PCMH Pre-PPACAPCMH Pre-PPACA
• Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ)– Primary Care with orientation toward whole
person and relationship-based collaboration– Caregiver (“Home”) is accountable for majority
of physical and mental health through a “team”– Home coordinates care needs across the health
continuum– Patient accessibility is increased– Systems-based approach to Quality and Safety
(CDS)

PCMH – Addressing the Heart PCMH – Addressing the Heart of the PCP Shortageof the PCP Shortage• Payment models devalue time spent with patients• PCPs earn 33-50% of income earned by
specialists• PCPs experienced a 10% reduction in income
between 1995 and 2003• PPACA – Ultimately 32M more patients• PCP burn-out• PCMH provides each patient with a personal MD,
and a physician-directed “team” using technology• Transforms episodic care with coordinated/long-
term healing
20
Joint Principles of PCMHJoint Principles of PCMH• Developed by AAP, AAFP, ACP, and AOA• Principles:
– Personal MD for each patient for 1st contact and ongoing care
– MD-directed medical team for collective care management– Whole person oriented coordinating tertiary care needs for
all life stages: acute, chronic, preventive, and end-of-life– Coordination/integration of care across the full continuum
and the patient’s community using registries, IT, HIE, etc.– Quality and safety by providing patient advocates,
evidence-based medicine with CDS, continuous quality improvement, patient active engagement in care, and use of HIT for measurement-education-communication
21
Joint Principles of PCMHJoint Principles of PCMH• Enhance access through such systems as open
scheduling, expanded hours, and new communication tools.
• Appropriate payment for value added based on:– Reflection of work outside the face-to-face visit– Both within the practice and coordination between consultants,
ancillary providers, and community resources– Adoption and use of Health IT for quality improvement– Support of enhanced communication access (e.g. email, phone
consult)– Value of MD work with remote monitoring using technology– No reduction in payments for face-to-face visits– Recognition of case mix differences being treated– Shared savings from reduced hospital stays associated with care
management– Additional payments for measurable, continuous quality
improvements 22
PPACA – Accountable Care PPACA – Accountable Care OrganizationsOrganizations• ACOs contract to provide services for a defined
population of Medicare patients • ACOs share savings if quality objectives are
achieved and performance measures met• Model is effective January 1, 2012• ACO models include:
– Integrated Delivery Systems (e.g. Kaiser, Group Health Coop.)
– Multi-specialty Group Practices (e.g. Mayo Clinic)– Physician-Hospital Organizations (PHOs)– Independent Physician Associations (IPAs)– Virtual Physician Organizations
• Must be Physician-led with PCMH at the hub 23
