1 UMass Memorial Welcomes National Conference of State Legislatures May 6, 2011 Craig M. Lilly, M.D. Professor of Medicine, Anesthesiology, and Surgery University of Massachusetts Medical School United States of America a community working together to conquer diseases

2 UMass Memorial Health Care An integrated health care system supporting over 1 million members of the central Massachusetts community 1,600 physicians 3,500 registered nurses 13,500 support personnel In 2010 we served 58,762 inpatients, 254,162 patients visited our emergency departments and over 1 million outpatients visited our providers

3 Critical Care Need No one plans to be critically ill today The number of Americans over 64 years of age is rapidly increasing 1,2 and uses more critical care services Utilization 1. Angus et al 2000 JAMA 284: HRSA report to congress

4 The UMass Memorial System Approach to Meeting the Needs of Our Patients We needed to be more efficient We needed to provide the care that we would want for our loved ones 24 hours a day We needed to support our community hospital partners to deliver more care locally We used tele-medicine tools to transform the way we delivered critical care

5 Approach to telemedicine Bedside ICU and eicu Collaboration Lead to Improved Outcomes New pathways for communication and sharing best practice 24/7 access to an intensivist at the touch of a button Patented ICU alerts and proactive identification of patients who can benefit eicu supporting excellent bedside providers

6 We performed a tele-icu study We targeted ICU best practices and costly complications We measured mortality and cost of care before and after we implemented the tele ICU We compared the outcomes of concurrent cases managed with and without the tele-icu

7 Tele-ICU associated process changes Pre-intervention Group Processes Bedside Monitor alarms ICU daily goal sheet Telephonic case review Initiated by house staff or affiliate practitioner Tele-ICU Group Processes Physiological Trend alerts Abnormal lab value alerts Review of response to alerts Off-site team rounding Electronic detection of non adherence Real time auditing Nurse Manager audits Tele-ICU team audits Tele-ICU workstation review Initiated by Tele-ICU intensivist Includes: Electronic medical record Imaging studies Interactive audio and video of patient Interaction with nurse and respiratory therapist Assessment of response to therapy

11 Tele-ICU Associated Volume Increase Annualized we were able to care for 478 incremental cases with little change in our labor costs

12 Tele-ICU Associated Cost Savings The cost savings were in excess of $5, (2005 USD) per case

13 Financial Impact to Medical Center We cared for 11% more ICU cases a year while reducing the cost per case by more than $5,000 This change in financial performance was substantially larger than the $3.15M annual operating costs of the eicu program The capital cost of $7.1 M was recovered in less than 1 year

14 Multi Center Tele-ICU Intervention Study Study termination 118,990 admissions to 60 ICUs of 35 hospitals ranging from 80 to 798 beds in size from 18 health care systems located in 15 states

15 Outcomes Hospital Mortality (10.8 vs. 9.9; p = 0.003) Hospital length of stay ( vs ; p < 0.001)

16 ACCP Tele-ICU Survey Top and bottom quintile of improvement comparison Characteristics of Top performing ICUs: They adhere to critical care best practices Short response to alerts and alarms for physiological Instability There was multi disciplinary collaboration Before the tele-icu they had critical care Surveys from 111 hospitals from 22 states and 37 health care systems were completed

18 Community Hospital Tele-ICU Program Objectives 1. The primary aim of the program was to increase the volume of higher acuity community hospital ICU cases without increasing mortality or length of stay 2. To review the effects of the program on community hospital ICU case volume, acuity, operational efficiency, and mortality 3. To review how the program affected hospital and payer cost

22 Mortality 1. Mortality for all cases presenting to these community hospitals was lower with tele-icu support than before but this difference was not statistically significant Hospital mortality of admitted and transferred patients Hospital 1 Pre-intervention group (n=469) Tele-ICU group (n=584) Total Mortality (n,%) 38 (8.1) 40 (6.8) -19% 0.5 Hospital mortality of admitted and transferred patients Hospital 2 Pre-intervention group (n=872) Tele-ICU group (n=924) Total Mortality (n,%) 101 (11.6) 100 (10.8) -7.4% 0.8

24 Propensity Matched Cost Study cases managed at an academic medical center or a community hospital were matched on age, admission diagnosis, APACHE IV score 2. Costs were compared using an activity based cost accounting system and audited by an external accounting firm 3. Community hospital cases were managed at lower hospital costs than academic medical center cases (10,000 USD per case) 225 cases/community hospital X $10,000/case = $2.25M Potential Payor Savings

25 A New Model for the Regional Delivery of Critical Care Academic Medical Center Preferential transport of high acuity cases Preferential transport of lower acuity cases Community Hospital

26 Summary How are telemedicine tools being used? Electronic support helps make us more efficient Tele-ICU is part of a safer care environment More patients can get quality care near their homes The cost of ICU care across the region is lower
