HAKR Final Report Conceptual Framework, Measure Criteria, Areas of Priority, Proposal to M&S, Areas for New Measure Development, Recommendations to HPQM, OHPB, Health Equity Measures Workgroup, HERC, etc.

Recommendations to Health Plan Quality Metrics Committee (HPQM)

  • Endorsement of any new metrics

proposed for Metrics and Scoring adoption (required)

  • Recommendations for metrics that can be

used by M&S and potentially other plans (PEBB, OEBB) Example: Consider inclusion of all metrics HAKR workgroup rated highly. If on HPQMC list, would add weight for use by others (e.g. for VBP, contracting, etc.) Current measure list N=51

Proposal to Metrics and Scoring (M&S)

  • Recommended measurement strategy
  • Specific metric components of that

strategy

  • Proposed timeline for adoption of

various components Current set N=19

Required Criteria – Reportable at the CCO level – Annual Reporting Criteria Considered Technical Measure Criteria – Evidence‐based and scientifically acceptable – Has a relevant benchmark – Not greatly influenced by patient case mix Program‐Specific Criteria – Consistent with goals of program and CCOs – Useable and relevant – Feasible to collect – Promotes increased value – Present an opportunity for quality improvement – Transformative potential – Sufficient denominator size Criteria Considered for the Measurement Set – Representative of array of services provided by program – Representative of diversity of patients served by program – Not unreasonably burdensome to payers or providers

Key Consideration: CCO Incentive Metric Set

Key Consideration: Limited Number of “Seats on the Plane”

Significant Changes for 2019 Future Expansions Already Planned – 2020: Significant changes to two measures: 1. Health assessments for children in foster care and 2. Dental sealants measure – 2021: Significant changes to two measures: 1. Depression screening and 2. Postpartum care Potential Additional Changes – 2020: Measure(s) focused on increasing health equity – 2021+: Obesity measure – Future: Other developmental areas (food insecurity or SDOH screening, etc).

Additional Key Considerations for Development of a Measurement Strategy for Metrics and Scoring (M&S)

9

  • HAKR is a multi‐faceted concept, so it is not sufficient to

recommend only one metric

  • Instead, a HAKR Measurement Strategy is needed that will

incorporate multiple metrics over time

  • This Measurement Strategy specific to M&S needs to take into

account what is already being measured, where there are gaps, and what is possible in the next few years  Leverage momentum and support from current members of Metrics and Scoring and Health Plan Quality Metrics

slide-10
SLIDE 10

Direction for Development of Measurement Strategy for Metrics and Scoring (M&S)

10

Given key considerations, strategy should include: A (Ready Metric(s)) + B (Glidepath Metric) + C (Near Ready Metric(s) to Develop)

Given Metrics and Scoring (M&S) has a limited number of “seats” AND the measure list was increased for 2019 AND there are a number of other metrics being proposed, we will:

  • Recommend a limited number of metrics in the proposed measurement strategy

that are feasible to adopt in the context of the total number of metrics on the list

  • Consider if specific metrics address population‐level OR service line gaps in the

M&S measurement set and therefore may have a higher likelihood of adoption

  • Consider timing of when specific metrics are adopted, noting the importance of

leveraging current level of support

slide-11
SLIDE 11

11

Measurement Strategy is Like a Puzzle: Metrics are “Pieces” & Strategy is How They Fit in the Larger Puzzle and the Picture Created

=

How Does it Fit in the Larger M&S Puzzle?

  • Is the total number

feasible to put in the set?

  • Does “the picture” of

the pieces meaningfully address HAKR, fill gaps in M&S set, and highlight most transformative areas?

2020 M&S Measure Set 2021 M&S Measure Set 2022 (+) M&S Measure Set Is it feasible to develop these pieces? Is it feasible to get HPQM adoption of metrics for M&S use? In what year(s) is it feasible to add the piece, given space in M&S set and what is addressed in the set?

Factors Used to Identify Individual Metric Components of the Measurement Strategy and to Assess the Set of Metrics

13

Factors for considering an individual metric as a component of the strategy

– HAKR measure criteria score (Workgroup assessment) – Fills gap in HAKR conceptual framework – Builds off input heard in discussions around new metrics, importance of focus on social‐emotional health – Fills gap in domains covered in the M&S measurement set – Fills gap in metrics for specific CCO services lines in the M&S measurement set – Level of development and resources needed (for Near Ready Metrics) – Likelihood of adoption by Health Plan Quality Metrics

Factors for considering the “set of individual metrics”

– Includes a focus on addressing social‐emotional health – HAKR Workgroup composite measure criteria: 1. Composite metric is parsimonious and limited in number of individual components. 2. Includes metrics which, in combination, measure the desired outcome by addressing the array of services that impact a child’s KR. 3. Includes metrics that utilize various data sources. 4. Includes measures with the most transformative potential to drive health system change and stimulate cross‐sector collaboration.

slide-14
SLIDE 14

In order to be successful, our measurement strategy should include: A feasible total number of metrics A staggered roll out, given inclusion of multiple metrics An approach that makes it desirable for CCOs to adopt and focus on the topic

SLIDE 18

Highlighting Social-Emotional Health: Opportunities and Challenges

18

Opportunities

  • Heard excitement, enthusiasm and cross‐sector collaboration opportunities around the importance
  • f social‐emotional health
  • There is energy around current social‐emotional screening by community‐based providers that

wouldn’t be captured in a claims‐based measure Challenges

  • Measurement strategy needs to be feasible to implement in the next few years
  • Concern about the feasibility of developing a new recommendation, new standard of care, and new

metric that could be: – Reviewed and approved by HPQMC – Reviewed and approved by M&S Opportunities

  • Social‐emotional health will be both a frame and a pillar in our recommendations
  • The Glidepath Metric (B) should include an explicit focus on social‐emotional health
  • Include recommendations in the HAKR final report related to social‐emotional health, with concrete

steps for moving forward, including HERC examination of evidence on social‐emotional screening

slide-19
SLIDE 19

Mental Health Utilization: Clarification on Metric, Services for Children with Social-Emotional Delays or Disorders

19

Intent of the revised metric and the development work needed to make it “ready” is to address services discussed in many HAKR workgroup meetings and to address gaps in follow‐up domain: – Dyadic therapies for children and their parents that address attachment, social‐emotional health, and build resilience – Dyadic therapies to address behaviors in children exposed to adverse childhood events

  • E.g. Nadine Burke‐Harris built internal behavioral health to provide Child Parent

Psychotherapy and Parent Child Interaction Therapy (included in metric) as one of her first steps after starting ACES screening. – Includes claims that, in concept, could be used by internal behavioral health AND by specialty mental health

  • Workgroup members repeatedly noted the importance of preventive behavioral health

– Assessments included are not screens, but robust assessments that often allow providers to examine family and social determinants that may be driving social‐emotional delays

slide-20
SLIDE 20

  • MH utilization metric creates a focus on the lack of capacity and resources for

children 0‐5 to address those children with greatest needs and for whom schools are asking for help

  • Concern with social‐emotional screening of all children is lack of resources to address

children identified – MH Utilization metric focuses on use of resources for those children with significant social‐emotional delays – Complements and supports future social‐emotional screening by creating a focus

  • n the services that will be needed if more children are identified
  • Considering how/if MH utilization metric could be a component of Glidepath (B)

rather than an outcome metric

Workgroup Input Needed Today: Options Related to “Ready” Metrics Options Related to “Near Ready” Metrics Input on factors to use for refining a Measurement Strategy that includes:

  • A set of metric components based on options
  • A timeline for roll-out

24

slide-25
SLIDE 25

Input Needed Related to Options for Ready Metrics

Options Considering: A2) New Oral Health Metric

  • Fills gap in M&S measure set focused on dental service line within

CCOs for this age‐group; dental metric highest HAKR score

  • Creates one metric addressing oral health
  • Concerns: Even though it is one metric, it is composed of two parts

and it could be argued it is a two‐part metric A3) Well‐Child Visits 3‐6

  • Fills gap in M&S measure set for population of children 3‐6
  • Opportunity to tie Glidepath Metric to elements that should occur

in well‐visit, inc. focus on SE

  • Concerns: Adds a metric and may take “a seat” from the B and C
  • ptions that had higher HAKR scores; only focused on quantity;

M&S measure set already has metrics in this HAKR domain Proposing to Not Include These Options: A1) Two metrics added to M&S likely to jeopardize B and C Options given total number in M&S set A4) Opportunity to add focus on oral health without adding a metric

25

slide-26
SLIDE 26

Input Needed Related to Options for Near Ready Metrics: Part 1

C1) Follow‐Up to Developmental Screening

  • Prioritized by HAKR planning team; caveat that requires resources to dev.
  • Highest HAKR Workgroup score; requires cross‐sector work
  • Fills gap in HAKR Conceptual Framework and in M&S measure set
  • M&S and HPQMC have already identified desire for metric on this topic
  • If it replaces Developmental Screening, net zero add to M&S set
  • Concerns: Development work needed; EHR‐based metric

C2) Maternal Depression Screening in Child’s Visit

  • 2nd highest HAKR Workgroup score
  • Maternal depression correlated with attachment and social‐emotional

development

  • Easier to develop given claims‐based and aligned with recommendations
  • Concerns: Does not include follow‐up; adds a metric to a HAKR and M&S

conceptual domain for which there are other metrics C3) Mental Health Utilization

  • Fills gaps in HAKR Conceptual Framework
  • Fills gap in M&S set for this service line (there are none for children

within behavioral health)

  • Concerns: Lower HAKR score; population‐based metric; potential lack of

workforce and capacity in state; depending on codes included, could create a focus on assessments and not services

26

SLIDE 27

Input Needed Related to Options for Near Ready Metrics: Part 2

27

Options Considering C4) Expand Existing CCO Metrics

  • Leverage the momentum around those metrics
  • Depression screening and follow‐up metric DOES include follow‐up

– Practices who are caring for children in the first year of life have already (in concept) been focusing on this metric given other populations:

  • Pediatric Practices: Adolescents
  • Family Medicine Practices: Adolescents and Adults
  • FQHCs/Others: Adolescents and Adults
  • Concerns: Feasibility of expanding the metrics

B2) instead of C3) Include MH Utilization in the Glidepath Metric

  • Creative way to focus on capacity and understanding current

services and policies to support kids with social‐emotional delays – Will stimulate policies and payment related to internal behavioral health – Glidepath metric could also include items related to SE screening (a way to get more children identified and into those services)

SLIDE 28

Input on Factors Used to Design the Measurement Strategy and the Set of Recommended Metrics

28

Factors to Use to Assess the “Set of Individual Metrics” Included In the Measurement Strategy – Does the set include a focus on addressing social‐emotional health? – Does the set meet the HAKR Workgroup “Composite” Measure Criteria? 1. The set of metrics is parsimonious and limited in number of individual components. 2. Includes metrics which, in combination, measure the desired outcome by addressing the array of services that impact a child’s KR. 3. Includes metrics that utilize various data sources. 4. Includes measures with the most transformative potential to drive health system change and stimulate cross‐sector collaboration. – Does the set include a feasible total number of metric and a feasible staggered roll out so that it does not significantly increase the M&S measure list? – Is the set of metrics feasible to develop? Are there other factors we should consider?

Recommendations to Include in HAKR Workgroup Report

New Recommendations Proposing Based on the 8/27/18 Discussion on New Metrics

  • Importance of high‐quality well‐visits

– Summary of key themes in Bright Futures recommended visits, emphasis on themes that relate to priority areas identified by this workgroup – E.g. Anticipatory guidance and parental education related to social emotional development and health; addressing parental health and social determinants of health – Barriers to existing metrics in counting the quantity and not quality of well‐visit experiences

  • Social‐emotional screening

– Make a recommendation to Health Evidence Review Committee to develop statement on the evidence for social‐emotional screening
