Oral Health Work Group Meeting #1 July 7, 2016

Meeting goals:

  • 1. Introduce charge and

goals for the work (see Guiding Document)

  • 2. Develop a

comprehensive list of barriers to oral health access

  • 3. Identify key elements
  • f an oral health care

access framework

Desired products:

  • 1. Draft oral health care

access definition

  • 2. Draft oral health care

access framework model

SLIDE 5

Goal #2: barriers to oral health care access in OHP

We asked: What barriers do you know or imagine that may prevent Oregon Health Plan (OHP) members from accessing oral health services in OHP? Consider barriers from perspectives such as: consumer/family perspective, provider, and health care

  • rganization/delivery
  • More than 50 barriers brainstormed
  • Areas covered included:

– Providers – supply, distribution, administrative barriers (e.g. credentialing process) – Enrollee/patient – knowledge/oral health literacy, attitudes (fear), cultural – Utilization – missed appointments, sites of care, patient experience of getting care – Structural/population health – state policy, disease burden in population

Key elements starting point: MACPAC Framework for Health Care Access in Medicaid

Medicaid and CHIP Payment and Access Commission (MACPAC). (2011). Report to the Congress on Medicaid and CHIP, Chapter 4: Examining Access to Care in Medicaid and CHIP. Available at: https://www.macpac.gov/wp- content/uploads/2015/01/Examining_Access_to_Care_in_Medicaid_and_CHIP.pdf

Main access elements Evaluating/ measuring access

slide-7
SLIDE 7

Goal #3: key elements of oral health care access framework

  • Small group categorization activity: how do barriers reveal

key elements of oral health care access?

  • Many barriers can be categorized under multiple elements

– For example, availability of transportation/child care can be seen as a barrier for individual enrollees, a factor in relative availability of services, and a factor in utilization of services

  • MACPAC framework doesn’t have everything we need
  • Group identified new elements to encompass structural,

systems of care, and population health barriers

Option 1: Oral health care access in the Oregon Health Plan is the availability, affordability, member awareness, and timely use of quality oral health services, integrated within a plan for patient-centered overall care at appropriate sites and from qualified providers (including specialists) who meet the needs of individual patients, including oral disease preventive services at regular intervals and treatment services when needed, to reduce disparities and achieve the best possible health outcomes. Option 2 (short version): Oral health care access in the Oregon Health Plan happens when members are aware of, seek, and successfully and equitably receive timely and quality oral health preventive services and needed treatment at appropriate sites and from providers who meet their needs, integrated into a plan for their overall health, in order to produce the best possible health

  • utcomes.

SLIDE 12

MAC feedback on draft products

  • Does the model framework for oral health care

access in OHP encompass every element/factor committee members feel should be included? Are there additional considerations committee members would like to raise?

  • Is there anything missing from the oral health access

definitions? Which definition does the committee prefer? Any other feedback on these?

  • Other feedback on the progress to date?
slide-13
SLIDE 13

Draft guidelines for Oral Health Work Group access indicator selection

  • Indicator prioritization: Prioritize top five indicators for each

framework element: Draft considerations for prioritization/selection:

(1) Consistency with recommendations of stakeholder groups (e.g. Dental Quality Metrics Work Group, CCO Oregon Dental Work Group) (2) Support of Triple Aim: importance of care coordination as a critical component of oral health care access (3) Health equity and access for vulnerable and underserved populations within OHP

Public health modernization will ensure basic public protections critical to the health

  • f all in Oregon and future generations –

including clean air, safe food and water, health promotion and prevention of diseases, and responding to new health threats.

slide-17
SLIDE 17

What will be different?

Before modernization

  • Significant gaps in public

health capacity provided based on where you live

  • Programs hindered by

limited and inflexible funding

  • Public health system

designed to provide individual level services

After modernization

  • Foundational level of

service provided for everyone

  • Programs supported by

diverse funding sources that allow local needs to be met

  • Public health is

accountable for the health

  • f the community

A foundation for achieving the Triple Aim

Oregon’s Action Plan for Health, 2010

“We need a health system that integrates public health, health care and community-level health improvement efforts to achieve a high standard of

  • verall health for all Oregonians,

regardless of income, race, ethnicity or geographic location. To achieve this, we must stimulate innovation and integration among public health, health systems and communities to increase coordination and reduce duplication.”

House Bill 3100 (2015)

  • Legislators used the recommendations from the

Modernizing Oregon’s Public Health System report to introduce House Bill 3100.

  • House Bill 3100:

– Adopted the foundational capabilities and programs for governmental public health. – Changed the composition and role of the Public Health Advisory Board on January 1, 2016. – Required an assessment of how foundational capabilities and programs are provided and what additional resources are needed.

Public health modernization assessment: purpose

  • Answer two key questions:

– To what extent are the foundational programs and capabilities of public health modernization being provided today? – What resources are needed to fully implement the foundational programs and capabilities?

Full implementation cost findings

Preliminary annual additional increment of cost of full implementation of foundational programs and capabilities: $105M Annual current spending on foundational programs and capabilities: $209M

This is a preliminary point-in-time, planning-level estimate for implementation under the current governmental public health system and does not represent the final cost needed to fully implement public health modernization. This cost estimate will be revised over time as efficiencies in public health system are implemented.

$1M in current spending $1M in additional increment of cost of full implementation

Implementation efforts

Local public health authority funding formula: HB 3100 requires a formula for the equitable distribution of funds. Initial formula includes the following variables:

  • Population size
  • Disease burden
  • Health status
  • Racial and ethnic diversity
  • Poverty
  • Limited English Proficiency

The funding formula also includes matching funds for local investment and a quality pool.

slide-30
SLIDE 30

Implementation efforts

Accountability metrics: HB 3100 requires the use of incentives to encourage effective provision of public health services. To the extent feasible, the final public health quality measure set will align with the work of:

  • Statewide public health initiatives (e.g., Oregon’s State

Health Improvement Plan)

  • National public health initiatives (e.g., CDC’s Winnable

Battles)

  • Coordinated care organizations
  • Early learning hubs
slide-31
SLIDE 31

31

Implementation efforts

Regional public health modernization meetings: Using funding from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, regional public health modernization planning meetings will be convened from September 2016-January 2017. The purpose of these meetings is to:

  • Engage elected officials, CCOs, early learning hubs,

community-based organizations and other stakeholders in moving forward a new model for public health

  • Identify barriers and opportunities for collaboration

across jurisdictions

  • Begin the process of developing local public health

modernization plans

Oregon Health Authority Quality & Accountability

Core Performance Measures

  • From Oregon's 1115 waiver - some focus on population health.
  • No financial incentives or penalties associated with them.

State Performance Measures

  • Annual assessment of statewide performance on 33 measures.
  • Financial penalties to the state if quality goals are not achieved.

CCO Incentive Measures

  • Annual assessment of CCO performance on 17 measures.
  • Quality pool paid to CCOs for performance.
  • Compare performance to prior year.
slide-42
SLIDE 42

2015 Quality Pool Distribution

To earn their full quality pool payment, CCOs had to:  Meet the benchmark or improvement target on at least 12 of the 17 measures (including EHR adoption); and  Have at least 60 percent of their members enrolled in a patient-centered primary care home (PCPCH). Money left over from quality pool went to the challenge pool. To earn challenge pool payments, CCOs had to:  Meet the benchmark or improvement target on the four challenge pool measures: depression screening, diabetes HbA1c control, SBIRT, and PCPCH enrollment.

slide-43
SLIDE 43

Meeting goals and what they mean

The Metrics and Scoring Committee establishes a benchmark and/or improvement target for each incentive measure. The Committee reviews measures and targets each year. Benchmarks: These are national-level benchmarks, set for exceptionally high achieving Medicaid programs. We expect these to be reached in the long term, rather than short term (5 to 10 years.) They may shift slightly year to year as national performance shifts or be increased as needed. Improvement targets: In addition to the benchmark, an improvement target is calculated for each incentive measure. The improvement target is unique for each CCO and focuses on reducing the gap between the CCO’s prior year performance and the benchmark by 10%.
