The overwhelming consensus is that volume based
reimbursement will be supplemented by or
replaced by quality and value based measures

12. The FTC’s Definition of CI
Clinical Integration is an arrangement in which physicians
modify practice patterns and create a high degree of
cooperation in order to control costs and ensure the quality
of services provided 1
The FTC also indicates Clinical Integration programs may
include the following:

The core of a CI program is a network of physicians, working collaboratively on a comprehensive set of quality and cost
improvement initiatives selected as clinically appropriate and matched to the needs of their local markets, and supported by a
robust information system that enables the delivery of higher value care.2

26. The Strategic Advantage of CI
• The new care delivery models of accountable care require
coordination across the continuum continuum, both inpatient and
ambulatory.
– ACOs
– Bundled payment programs
– Patient Centered Medical Homes
• Development of an aligned and coordinated physician network
is vital for optimal performance in population management and
to bring down the total cost of healthcare.

28. Mechanics the Medicare Shared Savings Program
– Program began January 1, 2013,
contracts to last minimum of three
years
of – Physician groups and hospitals eligible
to participate, but primary care
physicians must be included in any
ACO group
– Participating ACO’s must serve at least
5,000 Medicare beneficiaries
– Bonus potential to depend on
Medicare cost savings and quality
metrics
– Two payment models available: one
with no downside risk, the second
with downside risk in all three years
28
29. Why ACOs Matter to Dignity Health
– We believe that everyone who walks through our doors should
be treated like a person not a patient
person, patient.
– We have been advocating for meaningful reform since our
founding, because we believe g, access to care is a right.
– The debate about health care is too narrowly focused on cost
and politics and not on whether the system works.
– We want to implement reform in a way that brings humanity
back into health care, which means understanding that human
connection – humankindness – helps people heal.
