4 Today s Objectives Describe the status of care transitions and the current state of care. Define existing care transition models and their application to mental health. Assess quality strategies to support changes in the policy landscape.
5 Consequences of Inadequate Transitions to Patients and Families Poor health outcomes 1,2 Unnecessary disruptions and stress to families and patients 2 1. American Geriatrics Society Position Statement Coleman, E.A., J Am Geriatr Soc 51: (2003). January
6 Consequences of Inadequate Transitions to The Medical System Based on an analysis of Medicare claims data between : Almost20% of total Medicare beneficiaries were rehospitalized within 30 days, and 34% within 90 days 1 Unplanned rehospitalizations in 2004 cost $17.4 billion Medicare and Medicaid: 50% of total rehospitalizations within 30 days of discharge showed no bills for physician visits between discharge and rehospitalization 1, Jencks SF et al. N Engl J Med Gilmer T, Center for Health Care Strategies, Inc January
7 Consequences of Inadequate Transitions to The Behavioral Health System Up to 50% of all patients discharged from psychiatric hospitals are readmitted within 1 year 1 Medicare: Readmission rates increase with number of chronic conditions, including schizophrenia 2 One in 5 people with schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders has a hospitalization readmission within 30 days of hospital discharge 3 1. Vigiano T. Clinical Therapeutics, Gilmer T. Center for Health Care Strategies, Inc Elixhauser A. HealthcareCost and Utilization Project, January
8 Care Coordination The deliberate organization of patient care activities between two or more participants (including the patient) involved in a patient s care to facilitate the appropriate delivery of health care services. AHRQ 2007
9 Critical Components Care Coordination Project Team, FL Dept. of Children & Families Assessment and standardized level of care determination Knowledge of community resources Shared decision making Single point of accountability Family and person centered plan of care Family and individual choice and needs drive care Coordination across the spectrum of health services (physical & behavioral health) & social services, housing, education, & employment Information sharing Health Information Technology (HIT) Effective transitions and warm hand offs Goal of wellness and recovery
10 Poll Question #1 As of today, which of the Critical Components do you feel most confident about being able to implement? Level of care determination Community resources Shared decision making Single point of accountability Family and person centered choice, needs; plan of care Coordination across the spectrum of services Health Information Technology & data sharing Transitions and warm hand offs Goal of wellness and recovery
11 Poll Question #2 As of today, which of the Critical Components do you feel least confident about being able to implement? Level of care determination Community resources Shared decision making Single point of accountability Family and person centered choice, needs; plan of care Coordination across the spectrum of services Health Information Technology & data sharing Transitions and warm hand offs Goal of wellness and recovery
12 Few models specifically address the population of people with Serious Mental Illness, but there are several well-researched and widely known care transition models. 1 Care Transitions Intervention Transitional Care Model 1. Health Affairs/Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. Health Policy Brief, January
13 Care Transitions Intervention (CTI) Developed by Eric Coleman, MD, MPH, University of Colorado Key components 1 Patient-centered record, or Personal Health Record Structured checklist of critical activities to empower patients pre-discharge Patient self-activation and management session with a Transitions Coach in the hospital Transitions Coach follow-up visits and phone calls Outcomes 30% reduction in hospital readmissions 2 Follow-up pilot showed 36% reduced readmission rate 3 1. Parry, et al. Home Health Care Serv. Q Coleman, et al. Arch Intern Med Voss et al. Arch Intern Med 2011 January
14 Transitional Care Model (TCM) Developed by Mary Naylor, University of Pennsylvania Studied on older adults, but has good lessons for other populations as well Key components 1 Transition support begins in the hospital Heavy emphasis on patient education/activation Home-visiting component Accompany consumer to appointments Different from traditional case management Outcomes 1,2 Reduced readmission rates, and shorter stays & longer time between first and second admissions Improved physical health, functional status & quality of life Increased patient and family caregiver satisfaction Reduction in total and average costs per patient (mean savings of approximately $5000 after accounting for cost of the intervention) 1. Transitional Care Model, 2. Naylor MD et al. J Am Geriatr Soc January
15 Common Model Elements Time-limited supports Heavy investment in education and patient activation Assigned person to support patient and family pre- and posttransition January
16 Other Adaptations & Initiatives Re-engineering Discharge (RED) Better Outcomes for Older Adults through Safe Transitions (BOOST) Reducing Avoidable Readmissions Effectively (RARE) Geriatric Resources for Assessment and Care of Elders (GRACE) Availability, Responsiveness and Continuity (ARC)
17 Components of High Quality Care Coordination Relationships Recognizing Risk Education & Empowerment Systematic Follow up
18 Relationships Relationships with team members, community partners Key contacts Clear workflows with warm hand offs Shared records, release of information Written policies/protocols
19 Social worker Physician patient Peer specialist Nurse Care Coordinator Psychologist consumer Physician Housing coordinator Psychiatrist Pharmacist
20 Team-Based Care More than just adding a care coordinator Share vision of care team Reconfiguring front-back office functions Cross-training Time, effort, trust building Standing orders, protocols Nutting, Annals of Family Medicine 2010

22 Recognizing Risk Risk prediction, stratification Diagnoses and comorbidities History of hospitalizations Cultural barriers Level of Care Utilization System (LOCUS) Patient Centered Assessment Method Maxwell, Hibberd, Pratt, Peek and Baird The 8P s - Project BOOST Society of Hospital Medicine
23 Risk Assessment 8P - Project BOOST 1. Problems with medications 2. Psychological 3. Principal diagnosis 4. Physical limitations 5. Poor health literacy 6. Poor social support 7. Prior hospitalization 8. Palliative care oolkits/project_boost/web/quality Innovation/Implementation_Toolkit/B oost/boost_intervention/tools/risk_assessment.aspx
