Overview of CPC efficiency metrics
5
Metric Rationale
Ambulatory care-sensitive inpatient admits per 1,000
▪ Strong correlation with total cost of care for large practices▪ Metric that PCPs have stronger ability to influence, compared to all IP
admissions
Emergency room visits per 1,000
▪ Limited range of year over year variability for smaller panel sizes▪ Aligned with change in providers’ behavior that the program wants to
incentivize
▪ Reinforces desired provider practice patterns, with focus on the behavioral health population
▪ Relevant for a significant number of smaller practices▪ Stronger correlation to total cost of care than other BH-related metrics
Behavioral health-related1 inpatient admits per 1,000
Episodes-related metric
▪ Links CPC program to episode-based payments ▪ Incentivizes primary care providers to refer their patients to higher-
performing providers
Generic Dispensing Rate
▪ Strong correlation with total cost of care for large practices▪ Limited range of year over year variability for smaller panel sizes▪ Aligned with change in providers’ behavior that the program wants to
incentivize
Ambulatory care-sensitive inpatient admits/1,000 (PQI #90)
6
Description Numerator Denominator
Prevention Quality Indicators (PQI) overall composite per 1,000 member months, ages 18 yearsand older. Includes admissions for one of the following conditions: diabetes with short-termcomplications, diabetes with long-term complications, uncontrolled diabetes withoutcomplications, diabetes with lower-extremity amputation, chronic obstructive pulmonarydisease, asthma, hypertension, heart failure, angina without a cardiac procedure, dehydration,bacterial pneumonia, or urinary tract infection
Discharges, for patients ages 18 years and older, that meet the inclusion and exclusion rules for the numerator in any of the following PQIs:
▪ PQI #1 Diabetes Short-Term Complications Admission Rate
▪ PQI #3 Diabetes Long-Term Complications Admission Rate
▪ PQI #5 Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) or Asthma in Older Adults
▪ Admission Rate
▪ PQI #7 Hypertension Admission Rate
▪ PQI #8 Heart Failure Admission Rate
▪ PQI #10 Dehydration Admission Rate
▪ PQI #11 Bacterial Pneumonia Admission Rate
▪ PQI #12 Urinary Tract Infection Admission Rate
▪ PQI #13 Angina Without Procedure Admission Rate
▪ PQI #14 Uncontrolled Diabetes Admission Rate
▪ PQI #15 Asthma in Younger Adults Admission Rate
▪ PQI #16 Lower-Extremity Amputation among Patients with Diabetes Rate
Discharges that meet the inclusion and exclusion rules for the numerator in more than one of the above PQIs are counted only once in the composite numerator
▪ Population ages 18 years and older
Emergency department visits/1,000 (HEDIS AMB)
7
Description Member months Events and Calculation Exclusions
This measure summarizes utilization of ambulatory care in the ED visit category
Report all member months for the measurement year
▪ Count each visit to an ED that does not result in an inpatient encounter once, regardless of the intensity or duration of the visit
▪ Count multiple ED visits on the same date of service as one visit
▪ Report ED visits as a rate per 1,000 member months
Claims and encounters that indicate the encounter was for mental health or chemical dependency, defined as meeting any of the following criteria
▪ A principal diagnosis of mental health or chemical dependency
▪ Psychiatry.
▪ Electroconvulsive therapy.
▪ Alcohol or drug rehabilitation or detoxification.
Behavioral health-related inpatient admits/1,000 (HEDIS MPT)
8
Description Member months Events and Calculation Exclusions
This measure summarizes utilization of mental health services in the inpatient setting
Report all member months for the measurement year
▪ Count all acute and non-acute inpatient discharges from either a hospital or a treatment facility with a mental health principal diagnosis
▪ Report BH-related IP admits as a rate per 1,000 member months
None
Generic Dispensing Rate
9
Description Events and Calculation Denominator
This measure calculates the percentage of drug scripts prescribed which are generic
Number of scripts with an NDC code classified as generic name indicator = 1 according to a First Databank extract (specifies whether a product is a brand name product or generically named product using the product name as the criteria. Generically named drug products are products without a proprietary name.)
All scripts written for patients attributed to the practice during the measurement year, by both the PCP and other physicians
Episode-based metric
10
Description PAP Performance definition Included episodes
# of attributed member visits to PAPs who are low performing PAPS- # of attributed member visits to high performing PAPs; as a % of all attributed member visits to PAPs (low, high and neutral performing)
• A low performing PAP is one that has average risk adjusted spend in the top quintile.
• A high performing PAP is one thathasaverage risk adjusted spend in the lowest two quintiles and passes quality metrics.
• All other PAPs are neutral performing PAPs.
▪ Asthma▪ COPD▪ Perinatal▪ Colonoscopy▪ Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD)▪ Gastrointestinal hemorrhage (GIH)▪ Cholecystectomy

metrics to meet the minimum 50% passing rate.

Accessing Referral Reports in MITS Provider Portal
Quarterly referral reports include information about PAP performance for attributed members with episodes

• Data on your CPC practice’s attributed members
• Average cost per patient
• Percent of referrals to each PAP
• Details on other PAPs within a geographic radius

related claims will be included
Claims that are unrelated to the significant medical event and will
not be included

Example of service
▪ An episode of care (“episode” or “EOC”) is defined as the set of services provided to treat a clinical condition
or procedure for a defined duration
▪ These services occur across the continuum of care and can include: Extended care, Acute hospital care, Ambulatory
care, Home care, Community Outreach, Wellness, etc.

Review claims from the performance period to identify a ‘Principal Accountable Provider’(PAP) for each episode
4 5
Providers submit claims as they do today
Payers calculate average risk-adjusted reimburse-ment per episode for each PAP
Compare to predeter-mined “commendable” and “acceptable” levels
Payers reimburse for all services as they do today
Providers may
• Share savings: if average costs below commendable levels and quality targets are met
• Pay negative incentive:if average costs are above acceptable level
• See no impact: if average costs are between commendable and acceptable levels

Ohio has implemented the Episodes program in three waves, with Wave 3 episodes tied to payment starting in 2019 and beyond
1 Payment episode status already determined for W1 and W2; W3 episodes will be tied to payment through 3-stage implementation with 9 episodes in the first stage in 2019
2 Reporting for Wave 3 episodes extended through CY18 given need to incorporate physician feedback through reactive clinical process into episode design prior to performance periods
3 Episodes staying in ‘reporting-only’ for a period to-be-determined, or indefinitely by design.
