2 2 It usually starts with a problem and the need for a SOLUTION Our Level I is not timely and stakeholders are not happy It s unclear if people are getting the specialized and rehabilitative services identified in the PASRR report Our Level II reports and decisions are inconsistent We re not taking full advantage of our categorical and exemption options or our categorical/exemption options are being taken advantage of We can t measure discharge and diversion potential or outcomes
3 3 Today s KEY POINTS Quality assurance and quality improvement are important to PASRR Quality assurance and quality improvement are useful for PASRR Quality assurance and quality improvement are feasible in PASRR
4 4 OUTLINE Brief overview of QI history QI in healthcare and government Discussion of QI frameworks and principles Benefits of applying QI principles to PASRR Examples of potential PASRR QI and QA measures and activities
5 5 What is QUALITY IMPROVEMENT? A formal approach to the analysis of performance and systematic efforts to improve it If you can t MEASURE IT, you can t. MANAGE IT or IMPROVE IT
6 6 HISTORY of QUALITY Medieval Europe 1800s 1900s WWII Quality Revolution (Source: American Society for Quality)

13 13 Quality TOOLS & MEASUREMENT Flowcharts PASRR Process PASRR Reviewer Hospital Submits LI via Online system LI reviewed Need LII? N Negative Screen Outcomes Sent Y Meet Categorical or Exemption Criteria? N Y Cat/Ex Outcomes Sent Assessor Referred to assessor For face to face LII

15 15 Quality TOOLS & MEASUREMENT Check sheets and checklists
16 16 Quality TOOLS & MEASUREMENT Run charts Control charts % LII Rule Out Determinations % LII Rule Outs Median (2.3%)
17 17 KEYS to a SUCCESSFUL QI Project 1 Identify the problem you want to study 2 Get stakeholder involvement and buy-in early: Sell the problem Invoke principles of change and transition management 3 Pick the QI method and tools that best meet the project s needs All models are wrong, and some are useful. 4 Establish your baseline, then reassess (PDSA) 5 Start small and build a portfolio of success 6 Feed QI results back to stakeholders 7 Use stories from the field to illustrate data
18 18 Quality Improvement and PASRR WHY? Again If you can t measure it, you can t manage or improve it Improve outcomes and quality of life for individuals with disabilities Support effective and efficient administration of the PASRR program (Source: Ed Kako, PTAC, )
19 19 But it s not required! That s true, BUT CMS, through PTAC, has signaled that it may likely be required in the future: Must be informative: The data should give us information about a state's PASRR program that we would not otherwise have. Must be reasonable for states to report: Should be data the states are already collecting for other purposes for example, monitoring the performance of a contractor that performs Level II evaluations and determinations. You don t have to stop there. (Source: Ed Kako, PTAC, )
20 The ultimate goal of PASRR is to optimize an individual s placement success, treatment success, and QUALITY OF LIFE 20
21 21 COMPLEMENTARY goals CFR compliance Stakeholder satisfaction Placement success, treatment success, QOL Olmstead compliance Program efficiency
22 22 How states REACH that GOAL: Identify the Person Identify Needs Provide Needed Services (Source: Dan Timmel, CMS, , 2013)
23 23 Align your quality efforts to your goals: Identifying the right PEOPLE %/# of positive and negative LI %/# of positive and negative LIIs MDS and PASRR data analysis Identifying the right people Quality look behinds
24 24 Align your quality efforts to your goals: Identifying NEED Assurances and checks on personcenteredness Qualitative and evidencebased review Service response analysis Identifying the right services
25 25 Align your quality efforts to your goals: Ensuring DELIVERY of services and supports Resource & Service gap analysis Specialized Service delivery analysis Delivery of needed services Discharge and diversion data
26 26 KEYS to QI and PASRR Build quality into your program design Quality measurement activities and deliverables Database management system Discrete variable collection, storage, and analysis Data integrity Push button reporting Workflow solutions Real-time data
27 PASRR Quality Basic Measures and Data 27 Level I (grouped by MI, ID/RC, Dual) Number of Level I s completed annually Number and percentage of positive Level I s completed annually Number and percentage of negative Level I s completed annually Level II (grouped by MI, ID/RC, Dual) Total # of PAS and RR completed annually For PAS and RR - # and % of positive LIIs For PAS and RR - # and % of negative LIIs
28 28 PASRR Quality Intermediate Measures & Data Average time (days) between LI and LII PAS determination Average time (days) for RR determination For PAS and RR: # and % of positive LIIs leading to institutional placement For PAS and RR: # and % of positive LIIs leading to community placement For PAS and RR: # and % of categorical determinations For PAS and RR: # and % of exemption determinations For PAS and RR: # and % of positive LIIs with SS For PAS and RR: # and % of positive LIIs for veterans
29 PASRR Quality Advanced Measures & Data Comparison of MDS data and PASRR data to ensure program efficacy and quality of care Delivery of specialized services Outcome of specialized service delivery Individual Satisfaction/Quality Outcome Surveys Population, Provider, Regional analyses (outcomes, services) Quality look behinds to identify under-reporting of PASRR disabilities Analysis of time-limited categorical and exemption decisions in which the individual exceeded length of stay Many more 29
30 30 OPERATIONS MANAGEMENT DATA Basic Level II Turnaround Reporting Level II Turnaround 42 CFR Part 483, Subpart C requirement: Sees that Level II determinations are made within an annual average of 7-9 working days of a Level I identification. [ (c)] 7 9 days: compliant, but untenable Goal: speed, with good quality how to improve? Measure Break down steps in the process Analyze by factors that influence the quality and speed of each step
31 PROGRAM MANAGEMENT DATA Level II Turnaround Report Example 31
32 32 PROGRAM MANAGEMENT DATA Level II Turnaround Breakdown LI determination to LII assignment LII assignment to LII submission Calendar Days LII submission to LII determination
33 33 APPLYING THE MODEL FOR IMPROVMENT Model for Improvement Framework Aim: What are we trying to accomplish? (SMART) Measures: How will we know that a change is an improvement? Changes: What changes can we make that will result in an improvement? Aim: Over the next X months, decrease the rate of EHD approvals to less than X% of the total number of PASRR outcomes Measures: Percentage of EHD approvals out of the total number of PASRR outcomes Change: Require all EHD request to be reviewed and approved
34 34 QUALITY IMPROVEMENT Outcome Analysis Exempted Hospital Discharge Analysis Policy EHD outcomes were self-selected by the LI submitter and not vetted through an approval authority Data showed - Large % of individuals with EHD approvals ended up staying longer than 30 days. Policy change EHDs were submitted for review and approval through Level 1.5 Outcome Reduction in EHD requests, reasonable % stayed past 30 days
35 35 QUALITY IMPROVEMENT Outcome Analysis Decision concordance study - Demonstrates decision integrity and reliability
