4 Introduction Partnered with SCIO on a major benefit optimization project where client was pursuing $100M reduction in health care costs over a period of 3 years SCIO provided persona and specialized healthcare analytics expertise AHP provided actuarial modeling, risk analysis and network/pharmacy optimization expertise AHP utilized 3M s CRG (Clinical Risk Groups) technology for its risk analysis End product for the client was a set of recommendations which accomplished their goal for each of their major lines of business 2017 Axene Health Partners, LLC Slide 3
5 Use of Personas SCIO defined 6 personas High risk, prefer some choice, prefer wider choice of providers Highest risk, older members who prefer no restrictions in choice Medium risk, prefer some choice, cost conscious Medium risk, price sensitive, cost impact decision making Low risk, price sensitive, younger members, minimal understanding of health care system Low risk, inefficient users, visit ER instead of PCP 2017 Axene Health Partners, LLC Slide 4

7 Use of 3M CRGs 3M developed Clinical Risk Groups (CRGs) as a tool to understand risk of various populations categories of patients ranging from healthy non-users to catastrophic conditions Developed by physicians grouping patients into clinically intuitive categories, followed up by cost differences Individuals are assigned to a single CRG category Not widely used at this time, but in our professional opinion is one of the best risk stratification processes in the marketplace Effective methodology for dealing with co-morbidities and disease progression Example: There are 134 CRG categories including diabetes in the description 2017 Axene Health Partners, LLC Slide 6

14 Networks, RX & Personas Personas point to pricesensitive members, or those most willing to utilize lower cost networks and medications 3
15 Optimizing Networks & RX Benefits You may have a sense of which provider networks within your products are the most efficient, but do you know by how much, and the potential savings from Steering & Tiering? You may also have a sense of which medications you prefer your members to be taking (e.g. generics), but can you measure their impact on the total cost of care? 4
16 Is your data, Big Data? big da ta Noun Computing noun: big data 1.extremely large data sets that may be analyzed computationally to reveal patterns, trends, and associations, especially relating to human behavior and interactions. 2."much IT investment is going towards managing and maintaining big data" 5
17 Building Networks Finding common links between: Patients Hospitals Primary care physicians Specialists 6
18 Use of CRGs to Measure Efficiency Expected Cost / Normalizing Mix A Market Basket of Goods (Patients with CRGs) Average market basket cost across all Patients = $24. Average Cost at Walmart (low-cost network or RX) = $20 per basket Average Cost at Whole Foods (high-cost network or RX) = $30 Efficiency Score =.833 Efficiency Score =

21 Case Study: High-Efficiency Network Design While both utilization and unit cost play into the overall efficiency of a provider, often the price of the facility where key specialists perform heavily influences their efficiency 10
