3. Steering Committee
Determines Four Areas of Focus
1. Payment Reform
2. Engaging the Public
3. Buying Health Insurance for Employees
4. Delivery Reform
4. Stakeholders Use Convening to
Define and Prioritize
1) Payment Reform:
Cover All Services Needed
2) Engaging the Public:
Education and Community Culture
5. Stakeholders Use Convening to
Define and Prioritize
3) Buying Health Insurance for Employees:
Build a business case for, and explain
a clear ROI for the PCMH
4) Delivery Reform:
Build equitable facilitator systems for practice transformation.
6. Work Groups
Clarify and Add Details
Points considered:
Who is doing what, where, and well?
What isn’t being done? Can we really do it?
Can we augment or support existing efforts?
What value add does CPCC uniquely offer?
What audiences are more likely to respond to PCMH?
How can existing relationships and resources be helpful?
What does target audience want and/or need?
Among other questions…
8. Desired outcome:
Collaborate with key stakeholders to create top-
down support and call for specific payment
changes for primary care across all payers.
11. Strategy 1:
Build on relationships with policymakers,
providers and organized medical groups
a. Collaboration
b. Seek support and buy-in
c. Legislation as last resort
12. Strategy 2:
Outreach and follow up with payers (i.e. health
plans, employers, and government)
a. Leverage relationships to support the State
Innovation Model (SIM)
b. Meet payers where they are at: understand and
address motivation and incentives
c. Refine and promote message to resonate with all
different models of care delivery
13. Tactic 1:
Use specific data outcomes to make the point:
a. Research to include actionable and missing data
including but not limited to behavioral and dental
b. Identify and assess existing models (e.g. Direct Primary
Care, Bundling, Concierge, etc.)
14. Tactic 1:
Use specific data outcomes to make the point:
c. Analyze existing data outcome, value, validate medical home
approach, what would work for Primary Care, how can other professionals
on the team/professional organizations be included.
d. Actual cost to transform: reality check to be a primary care practice
15. Tactic 2:
Assert leadership through “bold demonstration of
worth”
a. Would doctors be willing to take stand “This is a model
that benefits us all and we can’t do it any other way – the need is
to be paid differently to reflect the value proposition.”
16. Tactic 3:
Create and disseminate report to payers with request
for action
a. Provide payers data that emphasizes value, benefit, etc. and ask for
specific payment reform amount (once determined)
b. Seek concrete support from payers to implement payment reform.
17. Tactic 4:
Secure meetings
a. Meet with policymakers (i.e. Governor,
Insurance Commissioner, etc) to create support
and use their help as needed.
20. Target:
Consumers who are likely advocates for PCMH and who will
influence plans and providers who is bought in, who is not, who is
paying?
a. Age 50 and up (i.e. Medicare)
b. Women of childbearing age/
“Sandwich Generation”
c. Chronic illnesses
21. Partners, conduits, messengers:
a. AARP, employers, providers (ages 50 to 60)
b. MOPS and other faith based organizations
c. Social media, Planned Parenthood, Ob/Gyn Society, etc. (Women of
childbearing age/Sandwich Gen).
e. Colorado Chronic Illness Committee, advocacy groups such as MS
Society, Epilepsy, etc (Chronic Illness)
f. Advocacy organizations with focus on patient empowerment (grassroots
groups such as Aurora Health Access)
22. Strategy 1:
Outreach and collaboration with partners and trusted messengers,
such as RCCO, Chambers, CPCI to understand needs of and best
ways to reach/empower target population.
23. Strategy 2:
Dissemination of information thru existing channels and efforts,
newsletter articles, health and wellness fairs, Exchange website,
WebMD, Wikipedia, etc. May also include PR tactics efforts such as
PSAs, media stories, etc.
24. Tactic 1:
Inventory and promotion of existing medical home messaging
among supporters (consistency); review messaging from PCPCC,
Colorado PCMH practices, TransforMed, NCQA, RCCO, CAHP,
CDPHE, etc
25. Tactic 2:
Use CPCI (trusted source) focus groups to tailor messaging to target
groups does PCMH as a term resonate, if not, then what? Can
PCMH messaging be tied into current ACA efforts?
26. Tactic 3:
Craft materials such as practice level resource, one-pager, q and a,
testimonials/stories make connection to “hot topics”, address
elephant in the room, include call to action
27. Buying Health Insurance for Employees:
Dan Burke, MD
Build a business case for, and explain a clear
ROI for the PCMH
29. Target:

hospitals that are self-insured)
30. Partners, conduits, messengers:
a. Colorado Business Group on Health
b. Providers – local; grassroots
c. Chambers of Commerce
d. Brokers
e. Society for Human Resource Management
f. Colorado Hospital Association

could employees be engaged?
b. Test existing messaging such as “happier, healthier
employees” and “pay less”
c. Refine messages based on conversation
34. Tactic 2:
Implement next steps in collaboration with
“innovative business” and community providers.
36. Desired Outcome:
Understand current landscape of primary care practices in Colorado
(including those owned and operated by hospital), sas well as
practice transformation needs. Then, identify opportunities for
meetings to address key issues.
38. Partners, conduits, messengers:
a. CDPHE (has existing work group researching work force issues)
b. AAFP’s Robert Graham Center and Ben Miller (recent paper geo-
coded providers)
c. Research firms, med students, other existing resources

l. AHRQ
m. Regional Extension Centers
n. TransforMED
40. Strategy 1:
Inventory current practice transformation efforts,
challenges, and gaps.
(use current efforts under way such as SIM and existing
data such as CMS and CAFP surveys from 2009 and 2011)
41. Strategy 2:
Convene providers and other stakeholders in solution-
oriented, accessible, statewide meetings (not just in
metro area) to address key issues related to practice
transformation.
42. Tactic 1:
Conduct needs assessment to the extent possible given challenges
and limitations regarding available data (inventory, assessment,
readiness); consider using National Provider Identifiers (NPI data)
-Define denominator (who are the practices, what is a “practice”)
-Other questions include:
-Who is doing what; who is involved
-How to move from primary care to PCMH?
-What is the need and where (gaps)
-Who is the population; how much do they want
-Who is not doing anything; why?
-Is there a need for building a case for small practices
-What are data challenges and needs (include children)
-What measures reflect value and quality?
44. Tactic 3:
Use research to identify/validate convening topics such as:
“Should a group be formed to create common measures to
standardize data” – look at CPCI
or
“Should a convening be held around data use and analysis?”
