CPR’s Goals 1. Effective Payment Reform: 20% of payments will flow through methods proven to improve value by 2020. 2. Innovative Health Care Purchasers: Health care purchasers will become more educated and activated on the use of benefit designs, payment methods, and other tactics that support higher-value health care. 3. Better Health Care Marketplace: Through greater visibility and competition, the health care marketplace will be more responsive to the needs of those who use and pay for health care. June 8, 2017

Key Ingredients of Transformation TRANSPARENCY: insight into quality and prices, building block for other reforms

BENEFIT DESIGN: incentives for consumers

PROVIDER NETWORK DESIGN: guidance for consumers, leverage for payers, volume for providers

PAYMENT REFORM: financial incentives for providers

June 8, 2017

www.catalyze.org

10


Transparency Transparency provides insight into what’s happening in the health care system. •

Helps health care purchasers and consumers understand the value of what they are buying.

Highlights and reduces unwarranted quality and price variation in the health care system.

Enables high-value benefit designs and payment reforms.

Benefit Design Cost Sharing Value-based insurance design (V-BID) High-deductible health plan (HDHP) Tiered networks Narrow networks Reference pricing Alternative sites of care Centers of excellence

Contingent Coverage Preauthorization Step therapy Precertification Continued stay review

The most innovative experiments focus on cost sharing

June 8, 2017

12


Provider Network Design Upon defining what constitutes a high-value health care provider, payers and purchasers can form networks of providers that meet this definition and offer varying ranges of provider choice to consumers. To form such a provider network, health plans contract with providers:

PAYER: Makes provider “innetwork� giving provider increased patient volume.

PROVIDER: Agrees to deliver care at lower negotiated rates.

A high-value provider network is a select group of in-network providers in a given health plan. June 8, 2017

Growth of Payment Reform The vast majority of reforms are layered on fee for service

2016-2017 2013-2015

2011 11% of payment is value oriented

2010

50%+ ?

40+% of payment is value oriented

1-3% of payments tied to performance The level of payment reform in the market has been steadily rising

Most common reforms are pay for performance & shared savings; bundled payment is the least common June 8, 2017

HOW TO WORK WITH YOUR HEALTH PLAN

June 8, 2017

www.catalyze.org

16


Relationship with Health Plans at the Crux Aligning your sourcing and contracting approach with other purchasers ensures that together you are pushing health plans to implement the high-value strategies you need to succeed. As more purchasers demand the same thing, health plans have a business case for changing how they serve customers. Standard RFI questions are a common tool for sourcing and comparing health plan proposals. Model contract language solidifies the purchaser’s ask and articulates clear expectations for payment and delivery reform.

User groups help you and your plan stay on track and on the same page.

Model Contract Language: Four Sections Value-Oriented Payment and Delivery of Care: Focuses on creating and implementing payment and delivery reforms designed to cut waste and/or improve the quality of care. Transparency: Focuses on providing information to compare quality and price among providers and services. Market Competition: Focuses on enhancing competition among providers and reducing unwarranted price and quality variation in the market. Tracking Progress: Focuses on the provision of ongoing reports to purchasers on each program’s impact on health care quality and costs. June 8, 2017

Health Plan User Groups (HPUGs) CPR’s HPUGs bring together plan representatives and their customers, moderated by CPR. The HPUG Toolkit provides host organizations with what they need to convene and manage the user group process: • Step-by-step instructions • Detailed timeline • Invitation templates • Agenda templates • Discussion guide • Health Plan User Group Progress Report June 8, 2017

www.catalyze.org

CPR has found success implementing HPUGs with members -others can replicate the process.

Payment Reform Evaluation Framework Data demonstrating effectiveness of payment reforms are limited - there is a pressing need to amass more evidence about the impact of various approaches and to compare outcomes across programs. The PREF establishes a standard evaluation process for payment reform programs that could support mid-course corrections, cross learning, and identify successful approaches that we should replicate and disseminate.

Whether these payment reforms are having their intended impact on the quality, efficiency, and cost of health care.

A SHARED AGENDA

June 8, 2017

www.catalyze.org

24


A Shared Purchaser Agenda One purchaser alone cannot move the market to deliver value. But many purchasers working together to achieve the same goals, asking for the same things, and leveraging a critical mass of demand can create real change. This means collaborating with individual purchasers, as well as employer coalitions and other stakeholders.

June 8, 2017

www.catalyze.org

25


What Shall We Push Next? Our eyes are set on evaluation – the need for rigorous and consistent assessment of progress and outcomes. Great there’s been so much activity – but is it making a difference? Serious attention to evaluation and willingness to share results is going to take pressure from purchasers. Time to demand transparency June 8, 2017
