Presentation Outline

  • History and current opportunity
  • Summary of eastern state models for measuring social determinants of

health at the plan level

  • Next steps

History

  • July 2015 – July 2016: TAG began discussions of a potential food insecurity

screening measure following Metrics & Scoring Committee interest, ultimately developing a specification at the provider / clinic level

  • November 2017: Metrics & Scoring Committee includes measure of food

insecurity screening in list of 26 measures proposed to HPQMC

  • April 2018: Based on Metrics & Scoring Committee recommendation,

HPQMC includes food insecurity as one of its 16 developmental measures and subsequently highlights it as a high priority in terms of further development (crafting a reliable measure at the plan level)

10

slide-11
SLIDE 11

Current State

  • During this time, there has also been significant movement in the field around

the social determinants of health (including, but not limited to, food insecurity).

SDH Domains in Commonly Used National Tools

– Housing & stability – Material Security (includes food security) – Transportation – Income – Employment – Education – Race, Ethnicity, & language – Migrant and/or seasonal farm work – Veteran status – Address/neighborhood – Insurance – Social integration and support – Stress – Optional measures on incarceration, refugee status, safety, and domestic violence

Current State (cont)

– Focus on social determinants of health in Oregon’s most recent Medicaid waiver, direction from the Governor to focus on this area, and in policy options to be included in CCO 2.0 – Very recent measurement development around social determinants of health in

  • ther states (more in later slides)

14

slide-15
SLIDE 15

Opportunity

  • Concern that a narrow focus on food insecurity would disrupt work that is already underway

in terms of broader SDOH, and limit what we could achieve with a new incentive measure

  • However, given the work around SDOH (which includes food security), there is an
  • pportunity to expand the scope of the measure development work from a narrow focus on

food insecurity to a broader focus social determinants of health.

  • This would align with work currently happening the field, and broader efforts in our state, and

nationally.

  • This shift is supported by the Oregon Food Bank, the Oregon Primary Care Association, and

the Oregon Health Authority.

15

Decision Needed: After hearing our full presentation, does the Metrics & Scoring Committee support shifting this developmental work from food insecurity, specifically, to broader SDOH?

Eastern State Models for Measuring Social Determinants of Health at the Plan Level

16

slide-17
SLIDE 17

So what are social determinants of health?

  • Conditions in which people are born, grow, live work, and age
  • Shaped by money, power, and resources: complex issues that need to be

addressed at multiple levels and sectors

  • These social determinants are largely responsible for health disparities and

inequities.

  • Examples are: ✔ affordable housing, ✔ economic security,

✔ safe neighborhoods, ✔ access to healthy and adequate foods, and ✔ exposure to environmental toxins or trauma.

NQF and CMS Recommendations for SDOH

Community and Healthcare System Linkages

– Acknowledge role of Medicaid in addressing SDOH – Create a comprehensive, accessible and routinely updated list of community resources

Information Sharing and Measurement

– Harmonize tools that assess social determinants of health – Create standards for input and extraction of social needs data from electronic health record – Increase data sharing among different government agencies

Define-Describe Oregon Needs

  • Multi-sector focus to create better equity for members
  • Approach must support OHA policy, health equity, demonstration waiver,

governor report, quality framework/models in CCO 2.0

  • Needs to fit in with existing programs and “resonate” with other activities such as:

✔ Health equity work group ✔ Social and Medical Complexity data releases ✔ Health-related services and other payment structures ✔ Transformation Center strategies-plans for technical assistance ✔ Public Health strategies-plans for strategic health improvement

  • Must not derail existing pilots and progress being made toward increased

standardization of measures

SLIDE 20

RWJ National Funder for SDOH says states must accomplish a checklist of actions to make advances

  • Identify and work with partners—OHA is doing this piece

✔ OPIP, ✔ DHS, ✔ Data warehouse, ✔ Transformation Center, ✔ OHSU, ✔ Food Banks

  • Access existing sources of Data—OHA is doing this piece with OHSU health

complexity work

  • Use literature and qualitative data—doing this right now by researching other

state approaches

  • Analyze risk factors predictive or health and outcomes—Yet TO DO
  • Get health care “used to working with” social determinants data in the

medical sphere—OHA is doing with existing DHS-OHA Health Screenings for Foster Children metric

Tip of the point metrics examples:

  • Developmental screening
  • Access to services
  • Colorectal cancer

screening Metrics that are “Pointy” are:

  • Focused
  • Evidence-based
  • Single domain or specialty
  • Often comparable to normative data
  • Exact
  • Equality based

“Pointy” Metrics The basis for incentive and quality measures so far

slide-22
SLIDE 22

Social determinants require “ROUND” metrics

22

Early Childhood Pollution-Clean Water Housing Stability Food Security Justice and Laws Educational Systems Employment Level Poverty and Wealth Gender Income Levels Family Support Crime Levels Medical Access Race Ethnicity

Member and Family In Community

Round measures are:

  • Multiple domains
  • Based on relationships
  • Infrastructure
  • Opportunities
  • Community
  • Qualitative
  • Equity based
  • Not normative

Close in to member and family are personal things like a job and permanent living space. Distant are things like neighborhood or census tract rates of crime, graduation rates Pointy metrics get dropped into this space, such as the blue triangle = Access to care from CAHPS

SLIDE 23

Social Determinants of Health is about Communities

23

We need to ….

  • Identify a “culture of health”
  • Identify the network and leaders in the community -----

a new infrastructure to bridge medical-social organizations

  • Connect services in communities to improve health inequities as a result of lack of nutrition and food

sources, housing, safety, education, employment, clean air and water, as well as other factors.

  • Overall complex social factors cannot be solved by the medical profession alone but bridges can be

built across sectors.

  • Data are needed to help identify gaps in all of these needs
  • Eastern states have created multiple domain and sector measures. Did a scan of four states:

Minnesota, Massachusetts, Michigan, Rhode Island

slide-24
SLIDE 24

Lessons from all States and Potential for Adaptation

  • Social determinants is larger than a single measure
  • Metrics are often reported out at both member and community levels
  • Screeners are done at CCO or clinic levels. Requirements for measurement

do not get in way of novel ideas for local work and partnerships-usually agnostic as to the screener but lists out domains that must be measured

  • Community infrastructure is developed through identifying service support

needs for that community using existing state and federal data by census tract

  • r zip code (community level data) Member level is used for clinic/CCO work

process planning

  • Roles and responsibilities for social referrals are described in detail and

connections to social services are updated and explicit

  • Incentives and pay rates are at various levels of development
  • http://www.jabfm.org/content/30/4/418.full.pdf+html – assessment of domains of screeners

24

slide-25
SLIDE 25

Future of SDOH Measures for Oregon?

  • Approval from HPQMC for expansion of focus toward broader domains
  • Might require thinking of more rounded type measures that are qualitative in nature
  • SDOH Model “structures” could be used either as an overall “score” in the incentive

program or as a methodology to create other SDOH payments- not sure how this will work in Oregon

  • Many other groups are working on social determinants issues in Oregon so taking a

less prescriptive approach MIGHT be best as a first out of the gate approach as they are developing tools and strategies to help with more standardization as the area evolves—screener requirements are usually AGNOSTIC in these states

  • Field not standardized but getting started seems important to momentum
  • OHA has already started releasing child and family social information to CCOs and

could expand this activity while remaining agnostic to exact choices for screeners or a single measure type.

25
slide-26
SLIDE 26

Discussion and Decisions

  • Does the Metrics & Scoring Committee support shifting

this developmental work from food insecurity, specifically, to broader SDOH?

  • If so, what are our next steps in terms of moving this

proposal forward to the HPQMC?

add BMI measurement change to the measure in 2023 (year 3)

slide-41
SLIDE 41

Obesity Glidepath Workgroup Recommendations

  • Technical Specification Workgroup 1: Community

investment in multisector interventions

  • The denominator will be the CCO.
  • Criteria for investment should include prevention and/or

treatment and can be either clinical and/or community based.

  • Consider if the CCO selects an intervention other than

what is listed on the HERC guidance: what documentation would be necessary?

  • The subgroup should explore potentially adding an aspect
  • f identifying the impact of the investment as part of the

attestation process.

41

slide-42
SLIDE 42
  • Technical Specification Workgroup 2: BMI

measurement and prevalence outcomes for children and adults.

  • CCO population with elevated BMI (overweight or obese)

and look to reduce (average?) BMI among this population

  • ver time (denominator = all CCO members age 3+ with

elevated BMI)

  • CCO population within a healthy weight range and look to

increase that percentage over time (denominator = all CCO members age 3+)

  • CCO population at normal or elevated BMI (overweight or
  • bese) and look to reduce (average?) BMI among this

population over time (denominator = all CCO members age 3+ with normal BMI + elevated BMI)

42

Obesity Glidepath Workgroup Recommendations

  • Metrics and Scoring Committee
  • CCO Metrics Technical Advisory Group
  • Health Plan Quality Metrics Committee
  • Early Learning Hubs
  • Primary Care Providers
  • Families

Themes from Stakeholder Input

Include at least one metric in recommendations that can be implemented in 2020 Excitement about metrics on dental services, mental health services, and developmental screening follow-up Focus on the children who face disparities Caution against screening metrics (e.g. SE screening), given challenges with capacity and access to services Summarize evidence for how recommendations will impact kindergarten readiness Connect recommendations to aligned work underway (e.g. CCO 2.0 priorities)

Caution against bundled metrics with many metric components

Final Workgroup Recommendations

slide-62
SLIDE 62

Context for Recommendations

62

The role of the health sector is to provide family-centered and integrated services, and to work collaboratively with other sectors to ensure children are physically, socially, and emotionally healthy in preparation for kindergarten.

  • A comprehensive approach to improving kindergarten readiness includes:
  • an array of measures to drive progress in all domains of kindergarten readiness
  • sufficient resources
  • greater capacity for services and system-building
  • Kindergarten readiness must continue to be a statewide priority; measures applied

through the CCO Quality Incentive Program should be just one of many coordinated and mutually reinforcing efforts to improve kindergarten readiness.

slide-63
SLIDE 63

Why a Measurement Strategy

63

The workgroup proposes a multi-year measurement strategy that aims to drive health system behavior change and investments that contribute to improved kindergarten readiness and cross-sector collaboration.

  • Kindergarten readiness is complex and the domains are interrelated. There is no one

measure that captures all of the health aspects of kindergarten readiness.

  • The proposal builds on the existing CCO incentive metrics focused on children

prenatal through age five.

  • The proposal balances the workgroup’s long-term vision for transformative work on

kindergarten readiness with current momentum and sense of urgency.

  • It includes metrics that are feasible to implement within the next few years, and drives

toward the development of future metrics necessary for progress toward kindergarten readiness.

  • Purpose: Drive CCOs to address complex system-level factors that impact the services that kids and

families receive and how they receive them, and for which there may be payment or policy barriers that need to be addressed.

  • Activities: Build capacity within CCOs for enhanced services, integration of services, cross-sector

collaboration, and future measurement opportunities.

  • Focus: Social-emotional health
  • Components of a CCO-level attestation metric:

1) Examine and expand screening for and identifying factors that impact SE health (including SDOH). 2) Assess capacity and utilization of behavioral health services for children 0-5 and their families. 3) Address policies and payment for behavioral health services (within primary care and specialty behavioral health care) for children 0-5 and their families.

slide-69
SLIDE 69

Components of a CCO-level attestation metric and example activities:

1) Examine and expand screening for and identifying factors that impact SE health (including SDOH). a. Conduct cross-sector training on identifying SE delays and follow-up pathways. b. Develop and implement specific pilots to address access of SE health services

  • Pilot enhanced assessment of a child’s social emotional health and/or family factors
  • Evaluate whether enhanced assessments result in increased access of behavioral health

services, and the impact of services on child and family well-being 2) Assess capacity and utilization of behavioral health services for children 0-5 and their families. a. Assess the specific number of trained providers and their capacity to provide behavioral health services for children 0-5, including mapping capacity by geography, language, and race/ethnicity. b. Examine claims data on utilization of behavioral health services for children 0-5 and assess for disparities. 3) Address policies and payment for behavioral health services (within primary care and specialty behavioral health care) for children 0-5 and their families. a. Address payment policies that limit access to services, such as:

  • Prior-authorization requirements for behavioral health services, including those provided in an

integrated primary care clinic.

  • Requirements for specific diagnostic codes to be provided for behavioral health services based
  • n where the services is provided.

  • Measure Developer: Oregon Pediatric Improvement Partnership
  • Data Source for Version Presented: Medicaid charts, Electronic Health Record reported metric
  • Mean Score on HAKR Measure Criteria When Assessed by Workgroup Members: 11.5 (out of 13)
  • Relevant Data:
  • Medicaid Performance Improvement Project within eight Medicaid MCOs in Oregon: Overall, only 40% of

children identified at-risk received follow-up; large variation in rates by MCO: 0-63%.

  • Medical chart reviews as part of quality improvement projects in seven practices (currently in process with

five more): Baseline ranges: 30-68% received follow-up. For a majority of the practices, the rates of follow- up were between 29-40%.

The workgroup believes that this proposal will galvanize significant progress on kindergarten readiness:

  • Catalyze health system integration and care coordination for children across physical, behavioral, and oral

health.

  • Address multiple interrelated domains of child development, thereby maximizing the potential to improve the
  • verall outcome of kindergarten readiness.
  • Advance the provision of essential preventive services for all children as well as targeted services for children

and families with additional needs.

  • Create a clear focus on social-emotional health, an area of great need articulated by families, health care

providers, and early learning and K-12 education stakeholders.

The proposed measurement strategy also aligns with the goals and criteria of the Metrics and Scoring Committee:

  • Addresses gaps in the current measure set by domains, populations, and service lines.
  • Includes a feasible total number of metrics and staggered roll-out to minimize burden while maximizing impact
  • Presents a significant opportunity for quality improvement.
  • Includes metrics that, when developed, are likely to be adopted by the Health Plan Quality Metrics Committee.
  • Has high transformative potential and promotes increased value: improved health and development in early

childhood will impact lifelong health, education, and economic outcomes for all Oregonians.

Implementation Recommendations

75

There are multiple ways that the Metrics and Scoring Committee can choose to implement the proposed measurement strategy over the next few years. Below are the implementation recommendations preferred by the workgroup: 1) Adopt two metrics now for the 2020 CCO incentive measure set:

  • Well-child visits for children 3-6 years old
  • Preventive dental visits for children 1-5 years old (the Committee can choose to

implement as a standalone metric, or combine with the current dental sealants metric for a more comprehensive children’s oral health metric) 2) Adopt a CCO-level attestation metric focused on children’s social-emotional health once specifications are finalized (i.e., for the 2021 or 2022 CCO incentive measure set). 3) Replace the existing developmental screening metric with a new follow-up to developmental screening metric in 2022 or 2023.

Implementation Recommendations

76

In order to achieve its intended impact and realize its transformative potential, the workgroup strongly believes that this proposal must be implemented as a package.

  • The workgroup’s vision of transformative action and results requires a focus on physical, oral,

developmental and social-emotional health, in combination. Ensuring the components of the strategy remain connected within the CCO Quality Incentive Program will in turn drive CCOs to bridge silos and initiate new ways of collaborating.

  • Some workgroup members felt that a single, bundled measure encompassing physical, oral,

developmental, and social-emotional health would be the most effective tool to drive towards health system behavior change and investments, while others felt there were additional opportunities to achieve the same ends.

  • The workgroup discussed two levers that the Metrics and Scoring Committee could utilize to keep the

focus on all of the components of the measurement strategy together: 1) Having a ‘bundled’ kindergarten readiness challenge pool requiring that a CCO meet each of the components of the measurement strategy to receive challenge pool dollars. 2) Including some or all of the measurement strategy components as a requirement for a CCO to earn 100% of the quality pool dollars for which it is eligible.

Next Steps Requested of the Metrics and Scoring Committee

77

➢ Implement the metrics included in our proposal ➢ Endorse additional needed measurement work for the CCO-level attestation metric on social-emotional health and follow-up to developmental screening metric ➢ Carry recommendations to the Health Plan Quality Metrics Committee ➢ Utilize levers to keep focus on the entire proposal as a package

Additional Next Steps to Ensure Impact

78

  • If endorsed by the Metrics and Scoring Committee, move

forward with needed measure development work.

  • Address other priorities that emerged and barriers identified by

the workgroup.

  • E.g. desired future measures, needed policy and funding to

ensure capacity of services, alignment with CCO 2.0 and Early Learning Council Strategic Plan, etc.

  • Communicate about the workgroup and share lessons learned

to inform other states and advance efforts nationally.
