Western Montana Region- PCMH Implementation and the Varying HIT Components & Impacts
Agenda
• Current Medical Home Status- Providence WMT
• Application- HIT determinants
• Workflow- o Patient Registry (Population Health Outreach)
o Patient Portal
o Care Coordination
• Advancing your Medical Home/CPI o Reporting
• Access
• Clinical Quality
• QCI
PMG WMT PCMH Vision
To be the Patient-Centered Medical Home of choice across
Montana, with the capabilities necessary to support an
integrated care delivery system.
Our Journey
Pilot Clinics (2011-2013)
Preparation (March – October
2013)
Application (October
2013)
Recognized Status
(December 2013)
CQI Process (January 2014 +)
NCQA PCMH recognition is valid for 3 years.
Our Journey, cont’d.
• 7 practices recognized with NCQA in 2013, with 2 additional
applications (Internal Medicine) submitted in April 2014
• Scores range from 69-88/100
o All Level 2 except 1- Polson
o 2 clinic edits
0-35 points = Level 1
36-85 points = Level 2
86-100 points = Level 3

Key Medical Home Functions
• Care Transitions (ED and Hospital Discharge Follow-up)
• Population Health Outreach
• Care Coordination for complex/high needs patients
• Referral & Lab/Imaging tracking and follow up
• Standardized quality reporting and quality improvement
• Care team development
• Development of ancillary medical home services (chronic
disease education, mental/behavioral health)
• Pre-visit preparation

Recognized PCMH Programs
NCQA 2011 Standards
• NCQA just released the PCMH 2014 reqs…
• Integration of behavioral health – Expectations rise. Practices are expected to collaborate with behavioral health care providers and to communicate behavioral health care capabilities to patients.
• Care management focus on high-need populations – Practices are expected to address socioeconomic drivers of health and poorly controlled or complex conditions. Practices should also focus on the special needs of patients referred from the “medical neighborhood”.
• Enhanced emphasis on team-based care – Revised standards emphasize collaboration with patients as part of the care team and establish team-based care as a “must-pass” criterion for NCQA Recognition.
• Alignment of improvement efforts with the triple aim – Practices must show that they are working to improve across all three domains of the triple aim: patient experience, cost and clinical quality.
• Sustained transformation – In keeping with the goal of continuous improvement, practices show that they comply with NCQA standards over long periods.
NCQA 2014 Standards Anticipated Changes….
Application HIT Determinants for creating a PCMH application – per NCQA 2011
Enhance Access and Continuity • Same day appointments*
• Timely clinical advice by telephone (during and after hours)*
• Timely electronic communication (during and after hours)*
• Monitors visits with selected provider/Continuity
• Assess racial and ethnic diversity of population
• Assess language needs of population
• Electronic Access o Patients can request electronic copy of health information and receive within 3 business days
o Patients have electronic access to health info within four days
o Clinical summaries are provided for more than 50% of office visits within three business days
o Two way communication
o Patient can request appointments or refills via electronic means
o Patient can request referrals or test results via electronic means
Identify & Manage Patient Populations
• Practice uses an electronic system that records primary demographic information for more than 50% of patients.
• System is searchable and structured for >80% of patients: o Up-to-date problem list with current and active dx
o Allergies, including medication allergies and adverse reactions
o Blood pressure, Height and Weight with date of update, for more than 50% of patients 2 years and older
o Calculates and displays BMI, Plots and displays growth charts
o Status of tobacco use
o List of prescription medications
o Age and gender appropriate immunizations
• Population Health Management* o 3 preventive care services; 3 chronic care services
o Patients not recently seen
o Specific medications
Plan and Manage Care
• Care Management for chronic, high-risk or complex patients* o Individual care plan including treatment plan
o Written plan of care & Summary (AVS)
o Assess barriers
o Additional benefit from additional care management support
o Follow-up with those who have not kept appointments
• Medication Management o Reviews and reconciles medications
o Information for new medications
o Assess patient/family understanding
o Assess patient response and barriers to adherence
o Document over the counter medications

o Flags abnormal results
o Electronically communicates with labs/facilities to order and retrieve results
o Electronically incorporate lab results into structured field in med record
• Coordinate and Manage Care Transitions o Identify patients with hospital admission and ER visit
o Sharing information- discharge summaries, follow-up care, transitioning pediatric, etc.
o Provides electronic summary of care record to another facility
Measure & Improve Performance
• Measure Performance o 3 Preventive Care services; 3 Chronic Care services
o 2 Utilization Measures
o Data stratified by vulnerable populations
• Continuous Quality Improvement* o Set goals and act to improve

Transition of Care
• Discharge Report generated daily
within clinic by Clinical staff. See
Tips and Tricks for report
generation.
• Report filtered by clinic specific
hospital inpatient discharges and
PCP

moderate or high complexity within
7 calendar days of discharge.
• Codes: 99495 Moderate,
99496 High
• Document date patient had contact
post discharge and date of
discharge.
• Only one TCM code can be billed
within 30 day period.
• If patient does not meet criteria,
standard follow up visit coded.
