Colorado’s oldest and largest group health care

Recognized by NCQA as the top-ranked private health plan in
Colorado and No. 13 in the entire nation for 2013-2014

KP Colorado does NOT own its own hospitals
We contract with 5 area hospitals
New CMS regulations created a ripe environment to work on
readmission reduction with our hospital partners

The Problem...
OUR READMISSION RATE WAS HIGHER THAN WE THOUGHT
The Gap...
OUR READMISSION REDUCTION STRATEGIES WERE
“ONE-SIZE-FITS-ALL”
The Solution(s)...
DEVELOP READMISSION REDUCTION STRATEGIES THAT ARE
TAILORED ACCORDING TO A MEMBERS RISK OF READMISSION

Established Interdepartmental
Work Groups
Feb 2013 - present
2013 Goal: Region-wide, ALL departments within KPCO
are “on-the-line” to reduce the
30-day hospital readmission rate.

Summary and Transition
Phone Number
“Will my doctor know what happened to me
in the hospital?”
and
“Who should I call if I have a question about
my hospitalization?”
•
Hospitalists, PCPs and Specialists collaborated to
create a simple, electronic DC Summary completed
the day the patient leaves the hospital.
•
The standardized discharge summary has been
implemented at our core contract hospitals,
representing 90% of total patient discharges.
•
A “special” phone number was added to the DC
instructions for patients to use between discharge
and outpatient follow up
•
Calls are answered by a live person 24/7

Risk Stratification
Know Your Population and Where
to Focus Your Efforts / Resources
Risk Stratification : LACE
Risk of Readmission Scoring Tool(1)
The “LACE” model was developed in Ottawa as a tool to predict
30-day readmission / death rates.
48 variables were evaluated, including living situation, age,
functional limitations, medications, comorbidities, season, and
others.
Four variables were found to be the most powerful predictors of
30-day risk of readmission/death.
(1) Walvaren et al. (CMAJ (2010) 182(6) : 551-557
The Canadian delivery systems is, in many respects, similar to the KP system
It has been validated against 1,000,000 Ottawa patients
It has been validated against our own data retrospectively for 2009

Reconciliation
“I understand my medications, how
to take them and why I need them.”
Medication Reconciliation
MEDICATION DISCREPANCY EXAMPLES:
Patient taking double dose of B-blocker. DC instructions state, “Metoprolol 25
mg, take 2 tabs twice daily”. Pt had 50 mg tabs at home and was taking "2
tabs“ as stated in the DC summary, therefore, taking Metoprolol 100 mg twice
daily (200 mg total). Pulse was 46 at PACT visit, BP 96/48.
DC instructions stated STOP Amlodipine and to START Metoprolol. At PACT
visit, wife was giving patient both medications.

office visit encounters from 14% in 2010 to 8% as of the end of September
2013

Hospital Medicine

PACT
o During the PACT visit, discrepancies are resolved and reconciled in
real-time with the pt

Transition pharmacist reviews meds for 100% of patients discharged from

PACT
Home Visits
"What the organizations … share in common is
this clear-eyed view that the status quo is not
sustainable and that new models to
simultaneously improve health, improve health
care, and reduce per-capita costs aren’t just
needed, they’re needed urgently."
~Alide Chase
A NEW MODEL
‘POST-ACUTE CARE TRANSITIONS’
By coupling a robust readmission
prediction tool (LACE) with
strategically-designed post-discharge
home visits (PACT), KPCO is able to
target high intensity interventions
specifically to patients who are at high
risk of readmission.
A NEW MODEL…..PACT
PACT
- A one-time home visit within 72 hours of hospital discharge
- To targeted, high-risk members
-
Conducted by nurse practitioners INTERNAL to KPCO
-
Who collaborate and communicate across our care delivery system
regarding each specific patient care plan and needs
PACT
The Secret Sauce
Taking care of uncertainty and leveraging competencies – medical care
and community care – to create a supportive wrap-around system for
the most vulnerable and complex patients.
-
-
-
Stagger points of care over time, not overwhelming patient with lots
of care up front
Right message in the right place at the right time
Not the same as Home Health Care
PACT Keys for Success
In-person home visits by internal providers offers:
 Objective empirical assessment of the patient’s needs in his/her
home environment which is then communicated to all downstream providers.
 On-site, real-time medication reconciliation,
 Referral to appropriate follow up and supportive care
 An exceptional level of ownership
Nurse Practitioners
 May titrate/modify medications
 May assess and treat post-hospitalization complications or
treatment failures
 May refer patients as necessary to additional services not
considered at the time of discharge

Most of the readmissions reviewed were:

o
The likelihood that a defect will be identified increases:
o
o
As the number of medications increase
The majority of readmissions are for reasons related to the
index stay
o
o
Medicare members
Regardless of whether or not the readmission was related to the
index stay, approx 40% of cases reviewed had a defect identified
“Deterioration of Condition”, “Medication Issues” and “End of
Life Issues” accounts for more than half of identified
readmission defect issues

“What had tended to be seen as just
an evitable consequence of people
being sick is now increasingly seen as
often being the consequence of not
having done as good a job as we
could have.”
