4 Overview of SSP Significant compliance obligations and costs. Limited opportunity to earn SSP payments. Financial liability for uncontrollable risks. Additional Issues to Consider 4 4
5 Compliance Obligations (Sources) Regulations (once final) SSP Application SSP Participation Agreement 5 5
6 General Rule: Distinct legal entity Compliance Obligations (ACO Structure) 75%+ board representation by participating health care providers/suppliers. Medicare beneficiary on board (no COI) TIN required....but not Medicare enrollment Exception: (No new entity required) All participating providers and suppliers already in a single preexisting legal entity. 6 6
7 Compliance Obligations (Clinical) CMO: Full-time, board certified, CA licensed. QAPI: Must address cost-effectiveness. Remediate poor performers. Evidence-Based Clinical Guidelines. Particularly for conditions with savings potential. Process to monitor, evaluate, provide feedback to, remediate, and expel practitioners. Sufficient EHR to support monitor/evaluation. 7 7
8 Compliance Obligations (Clinical) 50%+ of PCPs must qualify as meaningful users of certified EHR by start of PY2. Report on 65+ quality measures annually. Will expand in future years. Minimum attainment levels. Reporting Claims, PQRS/GPRO Reporting Tool, CAHPS Survey CMS Audits 8 8
9 Compliance Obligations (Clinical) Evaluate health needs of ACO population and develop a plan to address those needs. High-Risk Individuals Process to identify. Process to develop individualized health plan. Clear mechanisms to ensure coordination of care inside and outside ACO. Public disclosure of ACO information. 9 9
10 Compliance Obligations (Administrative) Designated Compliance officer (not legal counsel) who reports to ACO governing body.

13 Compliance Obligations (Summary) 13 13
14 Overview of SSP Significant compliance obligations and costs. Limited opportunity to earn SSP payments. Financial liability for uncontrollable risks. Additional Issues to Consider 14 14
15 Ltd. Opp. For SSP Payments Many Hurdles In Order To Qualify for Payment If You Qualify, Payment Is Limited 15 15
16 Ltd. Opp. For SSP Payments (Hurdle 1) Must Generate Significant Savings (PY MFFSPCE) < (98% of ACO Benchmark). Only savings below 98% of Benchmark are shared. In some cases must be below 96% of Benchmark
17 Ltd. Opp. For SSP Payments (Hurdle 2) Limited Ability To Manage Patient Care Crucial Point 1: No advance knowledge as to which patients affect calculation of your Actual PCMFFSE. Crucial Point 2: Beneficiary is free to get care outside ACO, and it will affect your PCMFFSE. Disincentive To Refer Hospital Patients To Academic Hospitals (IME Payment)
18 Ltd. Opp. For SSP Payments (Hurdle 3) Grounds For Denying SSP Failure to report on all 65+ clinical metrics. Must follow prescribed format. 10%+ error rate on audit of quality score. Failure to meet minimum attainment level. Failure of 50%+ of ACO PCPs to qualify as meaningful EHR users by start of PY
19 Ltd. Opp. For SSP Payments (Hurdle 4) Only Limited Portion of Savings Is Shared Maximum Sharing Rate is 52.5% to 65% Track 1 or 2 Performance on Quality Metrics RHC/FQHC Bonus Payment Cap (10% Benchmark Amount) 7.5% PY1-2 in Track 1. 25% Withhold (subject to forfeiture)
20 Overview of SSP Significant compliance obligations and costs. Limited opportunity to earn SSP payments. Financial liability for uncontrollable risks. Additional Issues to Consider 20 20
21 Liability For Uncontrollable Risks 21 21
22 Liability For Uncontrollable Risks At Risk for Increased Costs (PY MFFSPCE) > (102% of ACO Benchmark). Only losses above 102% of Benchmark are shared
23 Liability For Uncontrollable Risks Limited Ability To Manage Costs Crucial Point 1: No advance knowledge as to which patients affect calculation of your Actual PCMFFSE. Crucial Point 2: Beneficiary is free to get care outside ACO, and it will affect your PCMFFSE. IME payments become a burden to Academic Hospitals
24 Liability For Uncontrollable Risks Only Limited Portion of Savings Is Shared Minimum Loss Sharing Rate is 35%-47.5%. Performance on Quality Metrics RHC/FQHC Bonus Loss Liability Cap (10% Benchmark Amount) Losses apply against withhold and carry forward. Could subject ACO to state regulation as health insurer
25 Overview of SSP Significant compliance obligations and costs. Limited opportunity to earn SSP payments. Financial liability for uncontrollable risks. Additional Issues to Consider 25 25
26 Additional Issues to Consider Attribution Primary care vs. specialty Prospective vs. retrospective Stability of assigned / attributed population Cost adjustments Risk: CMS expects average population risk scores to be stable Geography: keeps in but what if differential increase vs. national Quality Measures Increasing from 32 in PGP Demo Project to 65 in one year! Many measures outside Physician Organization experience Many measures not tested and with limited previous use 26
27 Quality Measures Domain # items Comment Patient Experience 7 Care Coordination 16 Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (CAHPS) Survey Post-discharge; Medication Reconciliation; Ambulatory Sensitive Conditions Admissions; Meaningful Use Patient Safety 2 Hospital acquired condition (2 composites = 23 measures) Preventive Health 9 At-Risk Population/ Frail Elderly Health Vaccination; Screening (cancer, BP, depression); Tobacco; Weight; Cholesterol 31 (Coronary Artery Disease, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disorder, Diabetes, Heart Failure and Hypertension) + 2 composite all-or-nothing measures + Elderly (falls, osteoporosis management, anticoagulation management) 27
