Predictive Validity of Single-Q Health Status
“Predicting Mortality and Healthcare Utilization with a Single Question,”DeSalvo et al., Health Services Research 40:4 (August 2005).
“In general, would you say your health is…?

Adding Self-Reported Health Data Can Improve Traditional Predictive Models• The addition of self-reported health data from the Health Status
Questionnaire improves the predictive power of the DxCG model for admissions, costs, and mortality, with some loss of specificity
– The percentage of variance explained increased by 3-9 percentage points, to 10-25%
– Sensitivity increased by an average of 31% – Specificity decreased by an average of 13%– PPV decreased by an average of 16%

• PATHWAAY is a proactive, interdisciplinary outreach program to screen and address geriatric issues and ensure regulatory compliance
• Targets all Medicare patients annually who have not had a visit in the past year
• Identifies positive responses from screening in areas of greatest risk both clinical and financial (e.g., falls, medications, depression, UI, physical activity, advanced directive, malnutrition, pain, anxiety, etc)
• Structured chart review and proactive telephone encounter occurs prior to PCP visit. with RN (Senior Assessment Coordinator) for members self-identifying with gaps for frail, incontinence, mental health, nutrition, pain or frailty
• Care is delivered prior to visit with PCP including labs, assessment, med review with pharmacist if needed, RN call, etc.
