19 Health IT Integrated Decision Support for Imaging Utilization management through decision support: experience at MGH Thrall, Radiology 2009
20 Utilization and Variation decreased 40 Adjusted Images / 100 Patients By Doctor (N=137) Images / 100 Patients practice mean = 16.1 standard error = practice mean = 12.1 standard error = Doctors sorted by low to high (left-right) in each year
21 High Risk Care Management MGH Medicare Demo Opportunity 10% of Medicare patients account for nearly 70% of spending MGH Demo Medicare selected MGH to participate in a 3-year demonstration project focusing on high-cost beneficiaries in 2006 Shared savings model similar to ACO Required to cover costs of program +5% Gainsharing if savings greater than cost +5% Success determined using prospective matched comparison group
22 Chronic Conditions MGH Medicare Demo Enrolled 2,500 highest cost Medicare patients; TME = $68 M Average number of medications = 12.6 Average annual hospitalizations = 3.4 Average annual costs = $24,000 Nurse care managers embedded in primary care practices Coordinate care; point person for acute issues Identify patients at risk for poor outcomes Facilitate communication when many caregivers involved Key characteristics* Care managers have personal relationships with patients Care managers work closely with physicians All activities supported by health IT (universal EHR, patient tracking, decision support, home monitoring) * Identified by independent evaluator as critical to program success
23 Chronic Conditions MGH Medicare Demo Results from Independent Evaluator (RTI) Successful Enrollment 87% of eligible beneficiaries enrolled Successful Targeting of Interventions Interventions focused on the enrolled patients with the greatest opportunity Successful Communication Improved communication between patients and health care team High patient and physician satisfaction Successful Outcomes Hospitalization rate among enrolled patients was 20% lower than comparison* ED visit rates were 25% lower for enrolled patients* Annual mortality 16% among enrolled and 20% among comparison Successful Savings 7.1% annual net savings (12.1% gross) for enrolled patients Approximately 4% annual savings for total population For every $1 spent, the program saved at least $2.65 *Based on difference in differences analysis
