3 Accountability Plan Addresses the Special Terms and Conditions that were part of the $1.9 billion agreement with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). 1. Quality Strategy 2. State Tests for Quality and Access 3. Measurement Strategy Online at 3

4 Measurement Strategy OHA has committed to measuring and reporting on multiple measure sets. Note there is significant overlap between the measure sets. 33 State Performance Measures 17 CCO Incentive Measures 16 Core Performance Measures Child Health Insurance Program (CHIP) Core Set Medicaid Adult Quality Core Set 110 US DOJ Measures 4

5 State Test for Quality and Access Annual assessment of Oregon s statewide performance on 33 metrics, across 7 quality improvement focus areas: Improving behavioral and physical health coordination Improving perinatal and maternity care Reducing preventable re-hospitalizations Ensuring appropriate care is delivered in appropriate settings Reducing preventable and unnecessarily costly utilization by super-users Addressing discrete health issues (such as asthma, diabetes, HTN) 5

6 Core Performance Metrics Included in the 1115 Demonstration Waiver Reporting only no financial incentives or penalties for OHA or CCOs More public health, population and outcome Tobacco, obesity, contraceptive use Require more developmental work 6

7 CCO Incentive Metrics 17 measures across 7 quality improvement focus areas. Measures selected by the Metrics & Scoring Committee in October 2012, revised and approved by CMS in December CCO performance tied to quality pool funding. This is a bridge strategy in moving from capitation to paying for outcomes. OHA is responsible for data collection, analysis, and reporting. 7

16 How will we provide meaningful data to CCOs for assessing and improving health equity? 16

17 First step CCO level data on race, ethnicity and primary language 2011 baseline metrics by race, ethnicity and language Next by race, ethnicity and language 2013 data Disease and health status Metrics: services and medical intervention Change over time Additional subgroups 17

18 Challenges Difficult to stratify all CCO metrics by race, ethnicity, and language Small numbers for some CCOs CCO metrics demonstrate aspects of health but not all Additional subgrouping require definitions and data may not be available. 18
