1 Medicare Part D Star Ratings Opportunities for Pharmacy David Nau, RPh, PhD Senior Director, Quality Strategies
2 Other Value-Driven drivers Health for quality Care The U.S. health care system is moving towards value-based purchasing Value is the balance of quality and costs, thus we can optimize value by improving quality while reducing costs One of the biggest challenges in driving better quality is that we can t always agree on how to define and measure quality 2 PQA takes the lead on development of medicationrelated quality measures for evaluation of health plans, PBMs and pharmacies
3 Pharmacy Quality Alliance (PQA) Established in April 2006, as a public-private partnership Consensus-based, non-profit, alliance with 100 member organizations, including: Health Plans & PBMs Pharmacies & professional associations (including NCPA) Federal agencies (CMS, FDA) Pharmaceutical mfrs Consumer advocates Technology & consulting groups Universities Mission: Improve the quality of medication management and use across health care settings with the goal of improving patients health through a collaborative process to develop and implement performance measures and recognize examples of exceptional pharmacy quality.
4 Key Activities of PQA Quality measures for pharmacy services and drug plans Workgroups identify key measure concepts in areas such as safety, adherence, clinical appropriateness Technical specifications are developed and tested Approved measures are maintained and updated Demonstration projects for pharmacy quality measures Education for pharmacists on quality measures and performance improvement Connecting pharmacy to healthcare quality initiatives Conduct best practices seminars and forums throughout the year 4
5 2012 PQA Measures Benchmarks - Medicare Patient Safety drug-drug interactions; high risk medications in the elderly Medication Adherence diabetes, hypertension, cholesterol, HIV & others Medication Therapy Management Comprehensive Medication Review (CMR) Completion Mental Health Measures antipsychotic usage in dementia population Population Health Measures Pharmacy immunization rates (in development) 5 Specialty Pharmaceutical Measures
6 Market Drivers: Medication-Use Quality HHS Consumers Employers ONC,HRSA CDC,AHRQ FDA CMS Medicare Metrics NCQA URAC Medicaid Plans & PBM Medicare Plans & PBM Commercial Plans & PBM Consultant & Vendors E-QuIPP Pharmacies 6
7 Medicare Plan Ratings Part D Medicare drug plans receive a summary rating on quality as well as four domain, and individual measure scores (18 individual measures in total) Five measures are from PQA: - 2 measures of medication safety - High risk medications in the elderly - Appropriate treatment of blood pressure in persons with diabetes - 3 measures of medication adherence - Oral diabetes medications - Cholesterol medication (statins) - Blood pressure (renin-angiotensin-aldosterone inhibitors) Due to the higher weighting of clinically-relevant measures, the PQA measures account for 45% of Part D summary ratings in

11 Connecting Plans and Pharmacies: The EQuIPP Initiative EQuIPP = Electronic Quality Improvement Platform for Plans & Pharmacies The EQuIPP Initiative is built on the model from the PQAsponsored Pennsylvania demonstration wherein a health plan and pharmacies collaborated on quality improvement During 2012, the beta phase for the EQuIPP Initiative will allow health plans and pharmacies in Pennsylvania, Florida and Alabama to view quality scores and benchmarks, and use tools for no cost (via grant support) 11
12 EQuIPP Services: Beta Phase Pharmacy organizations have access to performance dashboards that report their scores on key quality measures and provide benchmarks Measures developed by PQA and used in CMS Star Ratings program for Medicare Part D plans EQuIPP supports multi-tier views of an organization s performance from the individual pharmacy, through districts and regions, to the corporate overview. Resources to support quality improvement strategy development and improvement efforts Training resources, patient education materials, etc. 12 NOT AN MTM PLATFORM

17 Summary The healthcare system is shifting towards value-based payments to providers wherein part of the total payment may be based on quality scores Medicare is driving greater attention to medication-related quality via the Medicare Star Ratings Medicare drug plans have a significant incentive to drive improvements in their star ratings EQuIPP can provide pharmacies with info on their performance on these Part D Star Ratings 17
