10 OPERS Evolution of Reimbursement Covered costs of participant books paid under administrative budget Believe in the value of CDSME Shifting to paying agreed upon fees for CDSME costs, prorated based upon number of sessions attended Claims payment under OPERS 401h trust requires electronic claims submission to OPERS claims administrator 10

11 Evolution of CDSME Reimbursement Claims Payment under Commercial Plans Electronic Claims Submission EIN by billing entity for AAAs CPT/HCPCs procedure codes Use of a Clearinghouse Claims Administrator Contracting Recognition as an approved provider May require custom provider contract Other processes AAAs (e.g. verify participant eligibility) O4A 11

15 Overview Some background: SM programs in Oregon Milestones in policy development Enabling factors Barriers to policy implementation Next steps

16 Stanford Program participants by county of residence, 2012

17 Participants by program and year,

18 National Diabetes Prevention Program Two organizations with master trainers Oregon Health & Science University Schnitzer Diabetes Health Center YMCA of Marion/Polk County (Salem) A dozen other organizations with trained leaders Moda Health (Eastern OR Coordinated Care Org) grant

19 Policy Implementation Milestones Oregon Health Authority formed (1/10) Consolidated health-related functions: public health, public employee benefits boards, Medicaid Medicaid program becomes a champion (7/10) Disease Management Coordinator attends national CDSMP ARRA grantee conference Employee benefits boards offer free Weight Watchers benefit (2010)

20 Policy Implementation Milestones Medicaid Health Evidence Review Commission review (2/11) Initially approved as a Medicaid benefit Decision rescinded due to budget concerns re: FQHC encounter billing rates Attracted decision makers attention, enhanced political will for policy change

21 Policy Implementation Milestones State employee benefits boards (PEBB & OEBB) invite presentations on CDSMP (2/11) PEBB & OEBB promote CDSMP and BCBH to early retirees (winter/spring 2011) Limited participation Enthusiastic response & feedback to boards

22 Policy Implementation Milestones Health Engagement Model implementation (2011) Wellness program: HRA and 2 qualified activities per year 2011/2012 State employee BRFSS improvements Reduced obesity rate Increased fruit/veg consumption Trend toward decreased dx of cholesterol, hypertension, diabetes

23 Policy Implementation Milestones PEBB/OEBB promote CDSMP & BCBH as Health Engagement Model approved activities (2012) Count toward two required annual health actions PEBB/OEBB approve CDSMP and NDPP as benefits (2013) Available at no cost to all members Implementation delayed due to contracting issues BCBH will be offered as a 2015 benefit

24 Enabling Factors Sufficient/growing delivery infrastructure Champions Evidence base Documented burden & cost savings potential Anticipated system for contracting & billing (Self-Management Hub/Alliance)

25 Implementation Challenges Program delivery contracting issues Many licensed organizations have no billing capacity Lack of statewide contracting network creates administrative barrier for health plans Time constraints HEM implementation politics Inability to measure policy impact HEM qualifying activities are self-tracked

26 Oregon s Current Self-Management Delivery & Financing Structure Oregon Living Well Network Program Delivery Organizations Public Health & State Unit on Aging Coordinate training & TA Collect/reports data Advocate for policy change (insurance coverage) Coordinate network????? Purchasers

27 Additional Lessons Learned It takes time work for incremental change Contracting & billing infrastructure is crucial Local data (participation, outcomes) useful/preferable

28 Next Steps Address the need for program delivery contracting networks Establish billing infrastructure Continue evaluation
