Value in Mental Health Services

10

What is the Problem? (Kaplan & Porter, 2011)

“…almost complete lack of understanding of how much it

costs to deliver patient care, much less how those costs compare with

the outcomes achieved.”Robert Kaplan & Michael Porter

11

What is the Goal?

Access? Availability? Equity? Cost containment?

VALUE for the Consumer

12

Value: Definition (Oxford English Dictionary)

The regard that something is held to deserve; the importance, worth, or usefulness of something: your support is of great value

the material or monetary worth of something

the worth of something compared to the price paid or asked for it

13

Value in Health Care

14

Value: A Calculation (Porter, 2010)

Value = ❑❑

𝑂𝑢𝑡𝑐𝑜𝑚𝑒𝑠𝐶𝑜𝑠𝑡𝑠

15

Outcomes (Porter, 2010)

Multidimensional By steps… Over time…

16

Outcomes Measures Hierarchy (Porter, 2010)

17

Challenges of Health Care Costing (Porter, 2010)

Complex delivery Many resources Each with different capabilities and costs

Fragmented delivery “Idiosyncratic” (i.e., “Individualized”) Highly customized “job shop”

18

Costs: How To Measure? (Kaplan & Porter, 2011)

Track the… sequence and duration

0f the… clinical and administrative processes

used by the… individual patient

Time-Driven Activity-Based Costing (TDABC)

19

Time-Driven Activity-Based Costing(Kaplan & Porter, 2011)

Patient Jones’ outpatient visit…Provider Tasks Time Rate CostAdministrator

Check-in, register, document payment

18 minutes (0.3 hours)

Nurse Take temp, weigh, take BP, prep


Doctor Direct exam, consultation

9 minutes (.15 hours)

Value Measurement (Porter, 2010)

What is the proper unit?

All services and activities that jointly determine success in meeting a set of consumer needs.

“Integrated practice units”

27

Value Measurement, 2 (Porter, 2010)

Separately for each condition…with other conditions “risk adjusted”.

Not separately by department or billing unit

Costing: The Whole Process (Kaplan & Porter, 2011)

1. Select the condition

1. Select the condition2. Define the care delivery value

chain (CDVC)

6 Strategic Objectives (Porter, 2012)

1. Organize system around patient2. Measure outcomes and costs 3. Pay in “bundles”4. Affiliate better (less all-service

stand-alone)5. Expand beyond narrow geographies6. Build IT, but not for a broken

system

44

Obj. 1: Organize around patient…(Porter,2012)

45

… Throughout Continuum of Care (Porter, 2012)

46

Obj. 2: Measure…the whole chain… (Porter, 2012)

47

…and up and down the hierarchy (Porter, 2012)

48

Obj. 3: Pay in bundles(Porter, 2012)

NB

49

Obj. 4: Affiliate better (Porter, 2012)

50

Obj. 5: Expand… (Porter, 2012)

51

Obj. 6: Build IT (Porter, 2012)

…but not for an unreconstructed delivery system!

52

Implications for Government (Porter, 2012)

Establish universal measurement and reporting

Shift reimbursement systems bundled Medicare to lead…

Remove obstacles to integration Stark Laws limiting referrals (“conflict of interest”)? Separate payments to hospitals and doctors? Illegal to hire a doctor as an employee?

Open competition Encourage patient responsibility Set standards and mandate EMR adoption

53

Application to Mental HealthCHALLENGES…

Medical model Localization (120

agencies) Reimbursement rates Political barriers Length of

“continuum” Individualization Scaling State v. Federal Excessive

dehospitalization Funding limits

OPPORTUNITIES…

PsyR model Wellness focus Recovery ideal PACT team model Behavioral Health

Homes Hospital consolidation Funding limits …
