Data Submission Approach

  • The Clinical Quality Metrics Registry (CQMR) will not be

available for 2017 reporting

  • Anticipate go-live later in 2018, with availability for test

submissions in advance of 2018 reporting deadlines

  • For 2017, basically same approach and templates as

2016 for data proposals and aggregated data submissions

  • For patient-level data, we anticipate requiring test

submission of QRDA I report

  • Report from at least one practice per measure
  • Anticipate that QRDA I test report would be for standard

measures only: diabetes HbA1c poor control, controlling high blood pressure, and depression screening and follow-up

Forecast for Future Reporting

  • CMS requires updated versions to be used in its

quality programs for each measure year

  • Example screenshot from eCQI Resource Center for 2017
  • For 2017, OHA encourages updating but continues

to accept older versions of the CMS measure specs (e.g., CMS 122v4)

  • Seeking TAG feedback on a future requirement to

use updated versions for reporting – timing?

Metrics & Scoring Committee – June Decisions for 2018

Dental Sealants

  • No change to dental sealants measure specifications.
  • Instructed OHA staff to explore CCO Oregon proposal for adult

bundled oral health measure related to diabetes for possible inclusion in the ‘on deck’ list for 2019 to be presented to the Health Plan Quality Metrics Committee (HPQMC).

Developmental Screening – including follow-up component in measure

  • Instructed OHA staff to explore ‘follow-up’ measure for possible

inclusion in future years.

Metrics & Scoring Committee – June Decisions for 2018

Follow-up after Hospitalization for Mental Illness

  • No change to measure specifications.

Health Care Disparity – Mental Illness (equity measure)

  • No change to measure specifications (carve-out of other CCO

population measure - numerator counts for physical health issues only, per HEDIS).

  • Measure will not be bundled with broader measure (will be two

distinct measures).

Metrics & Scoring Committee – June Decisions for 2018

CAHPS

  • Access measure is bundled for 2018 (separate benchmarks

for adult and child measures; must hit benchmark/target for both to qualify for measure)

Kindergarten readiness

  • 2018 challenge pool will focus on health aspects of

kindergarten readiness; Committee will identify specific measures in July.

Metrics & Scoring Committee – June Decisions for 2018

Obesity

At its May meeting the Committee asked staff to present any obesity metrics which would be ready to implement in 2018. Staff found two such measures from the meaningful use measure set:

  • BMI screening and follow-up for adults

(https://ecqi.healthit.gov/ep/ecqms-2018-performance- period/preventive-care-and-screening-body-mass-index-bmi-screening- and)

  • Weight assessment & counseling for nutrition and physical activity for

children & adolescents (https://ecqi.healthit.gov/ep/ecqms-2018- performance-period/weight-assessment-and-counseling-nutrition-and- physical-activity)

  • The Committee voted unanimously to add the child obesity metric above

to the long list of possible 2018 measures upon which the Committee would vote to identify the 2018 measure set.

  • The Committee voted unanimously to add the adult obesity metric above

to the “on deck” list for 2019 to be presented to the HPQMC.

Metrics & Scoring Committee – June Decisions for 2018

SBIRT

  • Given implementation concerns, Metrics & Scoring

Committee has decided not to include SBIRT in the 2018 CCO incentive measure set

  • Intention is to pilot measure and bring it back for 2019
  • OHA is seeking volunteers to participate in pilots – please

email metrics.questions@state.or.us

slide-17
SLIDE 17

Metrics & Scoring Committee – June Decisions for 2018

  • The Committee voted to include those with an asterisk

(overleaf) in the 2018 measure set

  • However, the 2018 incentive measure set will not be finalized

until July, to allow additional time for reflection and discussion (the Committee called out Follow-up after hospitalization for mental illness, specifically)

Benchmarking model

slide-21
SLIDE 21

Background

  • Last summer, the Metrics and Scoring Committee heard

testimony calling attention to the fact that a CCO can be a top performer on a measure, yet still not qualify for payment if improvement from the previous year was negligible or went slightly backward. This will likely become more common as the program matures and initial large gains give way more steady high

  • performance. CCOs who make a big leap in one year

are essentially penalized in later years.\

  • The Committee took note of this trend and would like

to consider possible modifications for the 2018 measurement year and beyond.

21

Background

slide-23
SLIDE 23

Background

  • At its December retreat, the Committee learned about

benchmarking structures in other states (Massachusetts, Maryland, Washington, Iowa) and discussed options.

  • Committee was less concerned about example on

previous slide, as performance overall still quite low.

  • Overall, Committee likes the simplicity of Oregon’s

model: Recognition of both excellence and improvement.

23

slide-24
SLIDE 24

Background

  • Expressed interest in using a 2-year lookback to set improvement

targets. Pros:

  • If a CCO improves (e.g.) 10% in first year and 2% in the second year,

that is still substantial improvement overall, should be rewarded.

  • Allows time to reflect, smooths out overall trend.
  • Some measures take longer to implement change. E.g. outcome,

population health measures, adolescent well-care visits(?)

24

slide-25
SLIDE 25

Cons

  • Specifications changes over 2 years, re-baselining.
  • If big improvement in one year, disincentive to improve

a few more points in year 2?

  • If CCO goes backwards in one year, could still achieve

measure (see example)

Additional considerations

  • If top performer not earning is a concern, could

simply stipulate that top performer achieves measure

  • Complexity, unintended consequences
  • Simpler solutions include raising benchmark,

removing or lowering improvement target floor

Additional TAG Recommendations for 2018

32

slide-33
SLIDE 33

Effective Contraceptive Use

  • TAG recommendation was to modify the specifications to

include permanent numerator credit for tubal ligation

  • The Committee supported changing the specifications to

account for tubal ligations, but wanted to see additional data before deciding on whether to:

(a) modify the lookback period to give permanent numerator credit for tubal ligations ever previously received or (b) exclude woman who have had tubal ligation from the denominator (credit would be given in year tubal conducted; member would be excluded in subsequent measurement periods)

  • OHA is gathering data to provide to the Committee in July

(see summary data on next two slides)

  • Initial TAG thoughts (after reviewing summary data)?

2018 Benchmark Recommendations

  • From past TAG discussion, benchmark

recommendations are as follows

  • Controlling Hypertension
  • Due to possible demographic changes cause by dual-eligible being

included in CCOs by default in 2018, and the differing thresholds for this population in the HEDIS specifications versus the CMS specifications (used for the CCO metric), TAG recommends the Committee lower the benchmark for 2018 (2017 is at national Medicaid 90th percentile, 69.0%).

  • Effective Contraceptive Use
  • Due to inflated denominator from claims-based measure, consider

amending benchmark
