Experience and Potential for Transformational Change in

Cancer Care Delivery

David A. Haggstrom, MD, MAS

Regenstrief Conference

October 3, 2007

Tranformational change• “Together we can transform the American health care

system into one that provides the highest quality of care for all of its citizens.”– Carolyn Clancy, AHRQ

• Connect the System. Through electronic health records, standards, and information exchange.

• Measure and Publish Quality. Work with doctors and hospitals to define benchmarks for what constitutes quality care.

• Measure and Publish Price. Agreement is needed on what procedures are covered in each "episode of care."

• Create Positive Incentives.  Reward those who offer & those who purchase high-quality, competitively priced health care.

RAND quality report

• Individuals receive 55% of recommended care

• “A key component of any solution…is the routine availability of information on performance at all levels. Making such information available will require a major overhaul of our current health information systems, with a focus on automating the entry and retrieval of key data for clinical decision making and for the measurement and reporting of quality.”

McGlynn E et al., NEJM, 2003.

Cancer policy statementsInstitute of Medicine, April 1999:

“A cancer data system is needed that can provide quality benchmarks for use by systems of care: hospitals, provider groups, and managed care systems”

National Cancer Institute, cancer.gov, 2002:“Work is underway to make cancer a working model for quality of care research and the translation of this research into practice”

Regenstrief Cancer Care Engineering, May 2007:“Develop an hierarchical system-based approach to improving cancer care: establishing an Indiana prototype for colorectal cancer care”

National Initiative for Cancer Care Quality– Development of quality measures:

• Literature review of existing indicators, guidelines, RCTs• Subsequent expert review (clinical, health services researchers,

nurses, patients)

– Method: patient survey & medical record review• 47% of eligible patients enrolled

– Proportion of patients who received recommended care• 86% of breast cancer patients

– Adherence less than 85% for 18/36 breast cancer measures• 78% of colorectal cancer patients

– Adherence less than 85% for 14/25 colorectal ca measures

– Colorectal cancer post-treatment surveillance: 50%– Appropriate referral: 13-59%– Respect for patient preferences: 57-71%

Schneider E et al., Jnl Clin Onc, 2005.

Outline• How do we measure quality?• With what data do we measure quality?• What technologies can transform our use of quality data?

– health information exchange– clinical decision support– personal health records

• How do we study technology implementation?• Who is accountable for quality?

– provider-level– system-level– patient-level

Approaches touncertain accountability

Promoting continuity infragmented health care system

1. System approach:• Assign provider accountability to larger organizations/units

than single provider

2. Patient-centered approach• Share accountability through personal health records

‘Extended medical staff’definition

• Data source: Assigned physicians & patients using Medicare claims (2002-2004)

• Physicians extended medical staff– Inpatient MDs: assign MD to hospital where they

provided care to most inpatients– Outpatient MDs: assigned MD to hospital where

admitted most patients• Patients extended medical staff

– Inpatients: assigned based on plurality of discharges over specific period

– Outpatients: assigned to physician (primary or specialty care) who provided most of their care in outpatient setting

• then assigned to physicians’ primary hospital

Fisher E et al., Health Affairs,2006

Advantages of ‘extended medical staff’ as locus of accountability

‘Positive incentives’• Performance measurement

– focus on longitudinal experience of patient & address fragmentation of care by pooling accountability

• Local organizational accountability– influence resource distribution, IF measured on BOTH

quality & cost– larger organizations have capacity to invest in

improving quality & lowering costs

Patient-centered approachPromoting continuity in

fragmented cancer care system

• If a man will begin with certainties, he will end in doubts; but if he will be content to begin with doubts, he will end in certainties. -Francis Bacon (1561-1626),_

Cancer quality/performance measures

• Measuring the Quality of Breast Cancer Care in Women– Evidence Report/Technology Assessment No. 105. (University of

Ottawa Evidence-based Practice Center) AHRQ. October 2004.

– (Duke Evidence-based Practice Center) AHRQ. May 2006.

• Process measures• Outcome measures

Types of uncertainty

ERROR: Measure quality of physician performance only by measuring clinical processes.

UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCE: Patients making informed and shared decisions with their physicians not to undergo screening or treatment are labeled as receiving poor quality care. Sick patients who would not benefit from aggressive screening or treatment may also be labeled as receiving poor quality care.

RESEARCH NEED: In areas of clinical uncertainty, measure quality by measuring the presence of “good decisions”, not only what decision is made. Take into account patient illness or preferences when measuring quality, otherwise, the measures may create incentives for inappropriate or unwanted clinical care.

• “The only man who behaves sensibly is my tailor; he takes my measurements anew every time he sees me, while all the rest go on with their old measurements and expect me to fit them”– George Bernard Shaw

• When Mrs. Hewitt sued Habana over her mother’s death, for example, she found that its owners and managers had spread control of Habana among 15 companies and five layers of firms.

• As a result, Mrs. Hewitt’s lawyer, like many others confronting privately owned homes, has been unable to establish definitively who was responsible for her mother’s care.

Tranformational change• “Together we can transform the American health care system into

one that provides the highest quality of care for all of its citizens.”– Carolyn Clancy, AHRQ

• Connect the System. Every medical provider will have some system for electronic health records.  Standards need to be set so all health information systems can quickly and securely communicate and exchange data.

• Measure and Publish Quality. Every case, every procedure has an outcome.  Some are better than others.  To measure quality, we must work with doctors and hospitals to define benchmarks for what constitutes quality care.

• Measure and Publish Price. Price information is useless unless cost is calculated for identical services.  Agreement is needed on what procedures are covered in each "episode of care."

• Create Positive Incentives.  All parties—providers, patients, insurance plans, and payers—must be subject to contractual arrangements that reward those who offer and those who purchase high-quality, competitively priced health care.

• “Changing what is possible”
