2 Health Service Delivery Future Primary Care Chronic Care & Post-acute Care Preventative Health & Wellness Acute Care 4 FY15 Budget Proposal Penalizes SNFs for high rates of preventable readmissions beginning in FY 2017 up to a 3% reduction. In 2012, acute care hospitals are penalized 1% of their base Medicare rate for not preventing preventable re admissions % penalty % penalty Equalizes payments for certain conditions treated in IRFs and SNFs. For example, hip replacement, knee replacement and pulmonary care beginning in FY Implements Bundled PAC Payment in 2018 for at least HALF of the PAC services. What does this mean? ACOs will be the primary payor source for PAC providers. ACO case management employees will be monitoring their PAC patients and provide care coordination. Increases authority and role of Independent Payment Advisory Board resulting in payment cuts when Medicare spending escalates. 5 Care Delivery Today 35% of Medicare Hospital Discharges are referred to Post acute care providers for additional care. 41% Skilled Nursing Facility 37% Home Health Agency 10% Inpatient Rehab Facility 10% Outpatient Rehab 2% Long term Acute Care Hospital 48% of Post acute care patients receive no further services after their initial post acute care. 29% of Post acute care patients are transferred to another Post acute venue for additional care (e.g., Outpatient Rehabilitation, Home Health). 23% of Post acute care patients are re admitted to the hospital.
