Metrics & Scoring Committee• Met 20 October and presented 2019 recommendations to Health Plan Quality Metrics Committee on 9
November (see meeting materials: MS recommendations for HPQMC_2019 document)• Heard presentations on the obesity measure, the tobacco prevalence measure, and finalized recommendations to
Health Plan Quality Metrics Committee (HPQMC) for 2019 menu set• Recommendation was to include all measures from 2018 PLUS six additional measures (below) and proposing a glide
path to an evidence-based obesity measure (where 2018 weight assessment measure used to ensure BMI recorded across the state, and also noting this measure’s utility beyond obesity, but in terms of general health promotion):
• Dental care for adults with diabetes • Preventive dental services utilization for adults • Coordination of care (CAHPS)
• BMI screening and follow-up for adults • EHR-based SBIRT • Food insecurity screening
• Also recommending that HPQMC include three measures in its own “on deck” list for development and inclusion in the HPQMC menu in future years:
• Kindergarten readiness (HPQMC is already sponsoring a workgroup in this area, focusing on the health aspects of kindergarten readiness)
• Developmental screening in the first 36 months of life and follow-up • Evidence-based measures of adult and child obesity
• Discussion on 9 November focused on decisions that might impact 2018: obesity/weight assessment; Also recommending that HPQMC include three measures in its own “on deck” list for development and inclusion in the HPQMC menu in future years:
• Kindergarten readiness (HPQMC is already sponsoring a workgroup in this area, focusing on the health aspects of kindergarten readiness)
• Developmental screening in the first 36 months of life and follow-up • Evidence-based measures of adult and child obesity

Metrics & Scoring Committee Decision: PCPCH Metric • OHA is currently working with CMS on a tribal protocol, which aims to
support CCOs in contracting with tribal clinics.
• Concern that this will negatively impact CCO performance on the metric in the short-term because many of these clinics do not yet have PCPCH recognition.
• To encourage engagement by CCOs and tribes, the Committee made a decision to remove tribal clinics from the denominator and the numerator for 2017 and 2018. Tribal clinics will be returned to the measure calculations in 2019.
• OHA will bring methodology for exclusion of tribal clinics to the TAG in January 2018. CCOs will need to self-identify members of tribal clinics that have not yet received PCPCH recognition and exclude them from the measure. • This will be done via the PCPCH survey; the survey date will be extended
to accommodate this work.
Metrics & Scoring Committee• Next meet 17 November
• Agenda• HPQMC debrief
• Update on development of health aspects of kindergarten readiness measure
• Review 2018 work plan

Midyear Report• Format is changing:

EHR-sourced Measures

2017 Data Proposals
• Reminder: Data Proposals are due 1/2/18
• Template has been corrected to remove columns about patient-level data test submissions
• Office hour call to address any questions• Tentatively scheduled for Wed, 12/6, 2:00-3:00
Clinical Quality Metrics Registry (CQMR) Update
• Received CMS approval of contract, so implementation can begin on technical solution
• Anticipate go-live in late 2018 • Timeline and other updates will be shared regularly
Quality Payment Program (QPP)
• CMS unofficially published 2018 final rule on 11/2
• As proposed, in 2018 Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) eligible clinicians may use
• 2014 Edition CEHRT• 2015 Edition CEHRT (and receive bonus points)• Combo of 2014 and 2015 Edition
• Summary of changes for 2018: https://www.cms.gov/Medicare/Quality-Payment-Program/Resource-Library/QPP-Year-2-Final-Rule-Fact-Sheet.pdf
Patient-Level Data – Projected for 2018 Reporting• 2017 Guidance Document (section 5.2) contains
draft guidance for future reportingFor 2018, OHA’s draft requirements include some patient-level data submitted as QRDA Category I. OHA anticipates that to some extent, custom queries and a custom reporting template will continue to be necessary. OHA will work with the CQMR vendor and CCO stakeholders to further refine this process. OHA anticipates that in 2018, the minimum population threshold for reporting patient-level data will be 20%.
Discussion – Patient-Level Data Collection for 2018
• Thoughts on your provider network’s readiness to report in QRDA I?
• What kinds of supports are needed?
• Is a 20% threshold for patient-level data realistic for 2018?
Smoking Prevalence Measure Specs• Follow up on earlier discussions of potential change
to align to NQF0028 (tobacco use screening and cessation intervention) in future years
• No changes in measure planned at this time• After discussion in October, Metrics & Scoring decided
to stay with current smoking prevalence measure• Health Plan Quality Metrics Committee has voted to
include smoking prevalence measure for 2019
Review 2017 smoking cessation survey
21
2017 Smoking Cessation Survey• Revised to simplify, both for CCOs, and OHA review
• Draft version included in packets. Please send any comments on draft survey to [email protected] by 28 November.
• Timeline:• February 5, 2018: Date by which this survey **must be
completed** for credit for the 2017 measurement period.• March 5, 2018: Date by which OHA will review and send CCOs a
draft survey ‘score’ (whether passed or failed cessation benefit requirement). CCOs will then review. Any CCOs not passing the cessation benefit may send questions / additional information to OHA, which OHA will review before making final decisions.
• March 19, 2018: Last day by which CCOs may send OHA additional information on draft score.
• April 6, 2018: OHA will send final smoking cessation score to CCOs (final decision on whether passed or failed for 2017).
• TAG thoughts?
22
TAG input on CCO metric guidance documents
23
CCO Metrics Guidance Documents• OHA is conducting a review of the CCO incentive measure
guidance documents with the goal of improving their usefulness and ‘user friendliness’
• Currently there are guidance documents specific to the following incentive measures available on the program webpage
• Adolescent well-care visits• Assessments of children in DHS custody• Colorectal cancer screening• Dental sealants• Depression screening• Developmental screening• Effective contraceptive use• Prenatal care
24
CCO Metrics Guidance Documents –questions for TAG• What do CCOs want out of these guidance documents?
• Who is the audience (CCO? Clinics? Individual Providers? All of the above? Does it depend on measure?)
• For which measures is a guidance document needed?
• What types of content are most useful?
• What formats are most user friendly?
• How often should they be updated?
• What input would the TAG like on drafts of the guidance documents?
