1 SPECIAL REPORT: Value Based Purchasing Hospital Program FY 13 Final Rule August 7, 2012 Washington Strategic Consulting 1825 Eye Street, NW, Suite #600 Washington, DC
2 Introduction On August 2, 2012, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) released the FY 2013 inpatient prospective payment system (PPS) final rule, which included a number of policies related to the Hospital Value Based Purchasing Program (HVBP) for hospitals, clinicians, and other stakeholders. Much of the Rule s 250 pages pertaining to the HVBP relates to the development of methodology used to calculate bonus payments and reductions required by the program. The Rule also makes a number of technical, clarifying changes to the appeals process and public disclosure requirements. Background The HVBP, created by the Affordable Care Act, requires the Secretary of HHS to establish a system under which incentive payments are made in a fiscal year (starting with discharges occurring on or after October 1, 2012) to hospitals that meet performance standards. The bonus payments will be paid out of a pool established by a mandatory reduction (aka Adjustment Factor) in hospital payments. Incentive payments will be based on each hospital s value-based payment percentage on the hospital s Total Performance Score (TPS) for a specified performance period. The total amount available for incentive payments for a fiscal year will be equal to the total amount of the payment reductions for all participating hospitals for such fiscal year. For FY 2013, the available funding pool will be equal to 1.00 percent of the base-operating DRG payments to all participating hospitals, and the size of the applicable percentage will increase to 1.25 percent for FY 2014, 1.50 percent for FY 2015, 1.75 percent for FY 2016, and 2.0 percent for FY 2017 and successive fiscal years. Calculating Performance CMS adopted 13 performance measures in the VBPP final rule issued in To determine whether a hospital meets or exceeds the performance standards for these measures, as required by the FY 2013 IPPS Rule, CMS will assess each hospital s achievement, as well as its improvement compared with its performance during a 3-quarter baseline period from July 1, 2009 through March 31, CMS will then calculate a TPS for each hospital by combining the greater of the hospital s achievement or improvement points for each measure to determine a score for each domain, weighting each domain score (for the FY 2013 Hospital VBP Program, the weights will be clinical process of care = 70 percent, patient experience of care = 30 percent), and adding together the weighted domain scores. Each hospital s TPS will be converted into a value-based incentive payment percentage and will then convert the value-based incentive payment percentage into a per discharge value-based incentive payment amount. CMS will incorporate the reduction to each hospital s base operating DRG payment amount for each discharge, as well as the value-based incentive payment amounts that the hospital earned as a result of its Page 1 of 6
3 performance (if applicable) into a claims processing systems in January 2013, and these adjustments will apply to FY 2013 discharges. Public Disclosure The Rule implements a plan for CMS to report data it collects from participating hospitals on each measure on the Hospital Compare web site for at least one year prior to the beginning of the performance period for the measure under the Hospital VBP Program. Payment Reductions (Adjustment Factor) The ACA instructs CMS to reduce the base operating DRG payment amount for a hospital for each discharge in a fiscal year by an applicable percent. The sum total of these reductions in a fiscal year must equal the total amount available for value-based incentive payments for all eligible hospitals for the fiscal year, as estimated by HHS. The final rule states that, beginning with FY 2013 discharges, every hospital will receive a reduction to its base operating DRG payment amount for each discharge in a fiscal year, regardless of whether CMS has determined that the hospital has earned a value-based incentive payment for that fiscal year. The total amount of the reductions across all eligible hospitals for a fiscal year would constitute the total amount available from which CMS could make value-based incentive payments for that fiscal year. The data CMS will to use to estimate these amounts is inpatient claims data from the Medicare Provider Analysis and Review (MedPAR) file. CMS will run the MedPAR data for purposes of estimating the base operating DRG payment reduction amounts, as well as the size of the funding pool that will apply to a fiscal year, in December of the previous fiscal year so that CMS can provide preliminary estimates in the IPPS/LTCH PPS proposed rule. The data will contain inpatient claims information related to discharges from the fiscal year that ended the previous September. The rule allows for the application of an inflation factor so that the estimate of the available pool of funds will more accurately reflect estimated total base operating DRG payments in the fiscal year in which the value-based incentive payments will actually be made. The final estimate for FY 2013, based on the March, 2012 update to the FY 2011 MedPAR file, is $963 million. Methodology to Calculate Adjustment Factor According to the Rule, for each eligible hospital that receives a TPS greater than zero with respect to a fiscal year, CMS will calculate a value-based incentive payment percentage for that hospital for that fiscal year. A hospital may earn a value-based incentive payment percentage that is less than, equal to, or more than the applicable percent. The applicable percent that CMS will use to reduce the base operating DRG payment amount for each FY 2013 discharge is 1.0 percent. Page 2 of 6
4 Timing of Adjustment Factor The rule requires that CMS not apply the 1.00 percent applicable reduction to the base operating DRG payment amount for each discharge until CMS applies the value-based incentive payment adjustment factor. In other words, CMS would add the value-based incentive payment amount to the hospital s reduced base-operating DRG payment amount for each FY 2013 discharge at the same time that it apply the 1.00 percent reduction to the base operating DRG payment amount. This would prevent hospitals from receiving a 1.00 percent reduction to their base operating DRG payment amounts before they receive their value-based incentive payment amount adjustment. Accordingly, under the Rule, beginning in January 2013, a hospital would receive a base operating DRG payment amount for each discharge occurring in FY 2013 that is the net result of the application of the 1.00 percent reduction and the application of the hospital s individual value-based incentive payment amount adjustment. Public Disclosure The Rule requires that each hospital has the opportunity to review, and submit corrections for, the information to be made public with respect to each hospital prior to such information being made public. The Rule provides for a period of 30-days to review and submit corrections for the claims-based measure rates contained in their confidential reports. This 30-day period would begin the day hospitals confidential reports and accompanying discharge-level data are posted to QualityNet. Outcome Measures Set out below is a complete list of the measures adopted for the HVBP for FY 2013, 2014 and Note that the Rule creates new measures that will be included for the 2015 value-based purchasing program -- a central line-associated blood stream infection measure and a patient safety indicator composite measure -- plus a Medicare spending per beneficiary efficiency measure.
