“Changin” times impact Data in PACE

4

• CMS mandates PACE organization data collection and submission. It is prescriptive

• On Lok offers DataPACE, a data management and benchmarking service

1989 DataPACE

1st Generation

• New data collection developed by PACE Data Management Steering Committee to supplement DataPACE which by now is optional following the Balanced Budget Act of 1997

• State regulators for states where data are mandated have input into data domains

2006 DataPACE2

2nd Generation

• Data elements determined independently by NPA and representatives from PACE organizations with no regulatory input

• Data elements selected based on their ability to serve PACE operations and objectives

2016 Common Data

Set (CDS) 3rd Generation

Common Data Set – A Brief Primer

5

Goals and Objectives

Data Sets Created

Process to Develop the CDS

Generate standard quality indicators Support PACE organizations internal quality

improvement programs Allow for efficient, meaningful, timely and

accurate benchmarking Accurately describe and compare PACE

enrollees to other populations to demonstrate PACE value

Support the improvement and universal adoption of PACE specific Electronic Health Record systems

Common Data Set – A Brief Primer

Goals and Objectives

Data Sets Created

Process to Develop the CDS

Analyzed current data standards and practices in PACE, as well as existing geriatric assessment tools

Identified issues in existing data flow and designed the optimal future data flow process

Constituted a Data Steering Committee with representation from all types of PACE organizations and functional areas

Selected data elements of relevance to PACE Created file layouts in partnership with IT

professionals from PACE organizations Currently, soliciting and incorporating inputs

from PACE organizations to arrive at standardized definitions of services

Common Data Set – A Brief Primer

7

Goals and Objectives

Data Sets Created

Process to Develop the CDS

CDS I: about 100 elements of assessment and demographic data

CDS II: about 60 elements of service and utilization data

Common Data Set is developed in collaboration with PACE organizations, yet most major aspects are aligned with different data initiatives

occurring simultaneously in the healthcare arena

Convergence with Other Data Initiatives in Healthcare

Impact Act

Tool for Functional Assessment

Standardized Items

Quality Measures proposed by

Econometrica

Provides validation that best practices were used

The Improving Medicare Post-Acute Care Transformation Act of 2014 is a law intended to change and improve Medicare’s post-acute services and reporting

PAC providers and assessment tools used Long term care hospitals - LCDS Home health agencies - OASIS Skilled nursing facilities - MDS Inpatient rehab facilities - IRF-PAI

What is the Impact Act

9

Requires post-acute care providers (PAC)* to report standardized patient assessment data, data on quality measures and data on resource use and other

measures

Requires the data to be inter-operable to allow for exchange among PAC and other providers to give them access to longitudinal information to facilitate

coordinated care and improve Medicare beneficiary outcomes

Modify PAC assessment instruments applicable to PAC providers for the submission of standardized patient assessment data on such providers and

enable data comparison across all providers

Convergence with Impact Act and why the Act is Relevant for PACE

10

POs use the same assessment tools as the PAC

providers or draw from them

CDS has been built using data

items from these same assessment

tools

As Impact Act aligns the different

assessment tools, CDS will be

calibrated towards this alignment

The lack of comparable information across PAC settings undermines the ability to evaluate and differentiate appropriate care settings for and by individuals and their caregivers

Common Features between the Impact Act and CDS Inability to Compare Across Settings is Major Impetus for the Impact Act and CDS

The lack of comparable data across POs undermines the ability to develop comparative consistency in benchmarking and distinguish PACE value from other options for duals. In addition, there is inability to:

Create a profile of the PACE participant

Provide direction for PACE specific EHRs

Require submission of standardized assessment data by PACs

CMS, however will not replace standardized instruments with one common assessment tool

The principal is that data follows the person from setting to setting

Makes possible access to longitudinal information for all providers to facilitate coordinated care and improved outcomes

Data is participant centric: each data element is tied to a participant

Makes possible access to longitudinal information to allow for development of modalities of care for optimal care and intervention

Based on the post-acute care settings in the Continuity Assessment Record and Evaluation (CARE) tool, it is a demonstration funded by CMS

What is the Tool for Functional Assessment Standardized Items (FASI)

16

Requires testing the reliability of a setting-agnostic, interoperable set of data elements from the CARE tool called “items”, that can support standardized

assessment of individuals across the continuum of care in community based long term services and supports programs

Intended for use amongst various populations: Elders (65 years and older); younger adults (18-64) with physical disabilities and adults of any age with

intellectual or developmental disabilities

Assessment data is intended for use for multiple purposes like use of standardized items to determine individual eligibility for state programs or to help

determine levels of care

Interoperability: Data elements support standardized assessment of individuals across continuum of care in community based long term services and supports programs

Multiple purposes for data

Individual eligibility for programs

Determine levels of care

A private research and management consulting firm that provides analyses, modeling, and economic evaluations for clients in the private and public sectors

What is Econometrica

19

CMS contracted with Econometrica to adapt, implement, and maintain quality measures for the nationwide PACE program. The contract name is Development, Implementation, and Maintenance of Quality Measures for the Programs of All-

Inclusive Care for the Elderly

The primary objectives of this project is to analyze existing quality measure sets to determine the extent to which they can be modified, refined, or enhanced to

be appropriate to the uniqueness of the PACE program

and organization

Focus on three areas of measurement - Falls, Falls with Injury, and Pressure Injury

Quality Care and Improved Outcomes Objective of Econometrica

measures is to help CMS provide oversight

Develop prevention measures which CMS and Econometrica believe are vital to ensuring quality of care for PACE participants

Quality Improvement and demonstrate PACE value Objective of CDS is to capture

data elements that are needed to create meaningful measures

CDS is flexible and can accommodate changes required to support Econometrica methodology

CDS has been designed to minimize data burden by incorporating existing data structures

• Federal: CMS continues its push to fully utilize EDR for risk adjustment

- CMS’ goal is to transition entirely from using diagnoses submitted to RAPS to using diagnoses from encounter data and they intend to continue transitioning away from a reliance on RAPS data for calculating risk scores.

- Currently in year 2 of transition to full EDR for MA risk adjustment

- Expectation is that risk scores will be 100% encounter data/FFS-based in 2020 (PY2019).

• States: Effort continues towards the Managed Care Model in the absence of FFS data in establishing Medicaid rates; increasingly reliant on EDR

- Recently released (May 6, 2016) Medicaid Managed Care final rule heavily influenced by the Medicaid Statistical Information System (MSIS) and Transformed-Medicaid Statistical Information System (T-MSIS)

- Provisions in final rule that relate to routine reporting of state encounter data as a condition for receiving federal matching payments for medical assistance

- States have graduated 3-year time period to be compliant with encounter data reporting requirements

Looking Ahead - Encounter Data Reporting
