23 Payment Innovation: Timeline The Governor s Office of Health Transformation (OHT) established with the goal to engage public and private partners to design and implement new health care delivery payment systems to reward value of services over volume. Sept. 2012: Ohio submits application for federal State Innovation Model (SIM) Design Grant. Feb. 2013: State awarded SIM design grant; begins work with McKinsey & Company and public/private partners on proposal design. July 2014: Ohio submits applications for federal SIM Test Grant (second phase) 23

24 Why medical homes and episodes? Ohio Department of Medicaid Medical homes provide the foundation for total cost/quality accountability Population based accountability transcends delivery system Large long term impact: prevention and chronic disease management Requires providers to fully transform business model away from FFS Requires significant provider capabilities and commitment Episodes nested within total cost of care for more specific accountability Patient centered design around the patient journey thru delivery system Faster to impact: clear and specific opportunities for improvement Stages business model transition away from FFS for specialists/hospitals Faster to scale, independent of market structure or capabilities Fit with other models Both models being implemented agnostic of provider structure, can be carved out or carved in for ACO or capitation 24

25 Five year plan to launch PCMH and episode model at scale Goal State s role 80 90% of Ohio s population in some value based payment model (combination of episodes and population based payment) within 5 years Shift rapidly to PCMH & episode model in Medicaid FFS Require Medicaid MCO partners to participate / implement Incorporate into contracts of MCOs for state employee benefit program Year 1 Year 3 Year 5 Patient centered medical homes In 2014 focus on CPCi Payers agree to participate in design for elements where standardization and / or alignment is critical Multi payer group begins enrollment strategy for one additional market Model rolled out to all major markets 50% of patients are enrolled Scale achieved state wide 80% of patients are enrolled Episode based payments State leads design of 5 episodes perinatal, asthma (acute exacerbation), COPD exacerbation, PCI, and joint replacement Payers agree to participate in design process, launch reporting on at least 3 of 5 episodes in 2014 and tie to payment within year 20 episodes defined and launched across payers 50+ episodes defined and launched across payers 25

26 Streamline Health and Human Services: Organize Government to be More Efficient Jobs Budget Created the Office of Health Transformation New Medicaid claims payment system (MITS) Reorganized Medicaid programs and budgets Jobs Budget 2.0 Consolidate Mental Health and Addiction Services (July 2013) Create a unified Medicaid budgeting/accounting system Create a Cabinet Level Department of Medicaid (July 2013) Replace Ohio s 34 year old eligibility system (CRIS E) Coordinate health sector workforce programs
