IPFQR Program Update
Overview of the IPFQR Program
IPFQR Program Background
• The IPFQR program was implemented October 1, 2012. As part of CMS’ pay-for-reporting program, eligible facilities are
subject to payment reduction for non-participation. This is intended to encourage IPFs and clinicians to improve the quality
of inpatient care.
This requires collection and reporting of aggregate, annual, and facility-
level data, not patient-level data.
The Inpatient Psychiatric Facility (IPF) Prospective Payment
System (PPS) FY 2016 Final Rule was published on August 5,
2015, in the Federal Register found at
http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2015-08-05/pdf/2015-18903.pdf.
The IPFQR Program (42 CFR Part 412) begins on page one of the
PDF or page 46651 of the Federal Register.

What is an IPF?
5
• IPFs are either psychiatric units
within acute care or critical
access hospitals, or
freestanding psychiatric
hospitals.
• CMS uses the quarterly IPF
Provider-Specific File (PSF) to
determine program eligibility.
• IPF PPS billing is designated by
the facility’s CCN.

Changes to the IPFQR Program

Program
Year Measures Participating IPFs
Year 1 (FY 2014) 6 1,815
Year 2 (FY 2015) 6 1,725
Year 3 (FY 2016) 10 1,670
Year 4 (FY 2017) 13 blank
Year 5 (FY 2018) 16 blank
• To reduce burden, IPFs no longer submit measure data by age
strata and quarter.
• Starting with the 2016 data submission period, IPFs will submit
non-measure data, including total annual discharges overall,
by age strata, payer, and diagnostic categories.
Changes to the IPFQR Program
• Starting with the 2017 data submission period, IPFs will have the
option to use the existing sampling guidelines or the global
sampling option outlined in the FY 2016 IPF PPS Final Rule.
• A list of the measures for which sampling is allowed includes: HBIPS-5

Implicit Values
A high quality/performing IPF:
• Maximizes use of best/evidence-based practices
• Treats the whole patient, not just the admitting diagnosis
• Continues to engage with the patient after discharge with
respect to issues such as follow through with referrals,
treatment adherence, and health status
• Promotes recovery-oriented care and patient and
family/caregiver participation in treatment and planning
14
Misperceptions about Measures
•
• Performance is related to payment.
• Best performance results in a “0 or 100” score.
15
A measure is a program requirement.
Frequent Concerns About Measure Requirements
16
• Additional burden from collection or reporting
• Some measures not endorsed by either the National
Quality Forum (NQF) and/or the Measure
Applications Partnership (MAP)
• Some IPFs feel there are measure specifications
beyond the scope of psychiatric hospitals’
responsibility
• Variation
What happens to patients post-discharge is not an IPF role
17
IPFQR Program Update
IPFQR Key Informant Survey Preliminary Results
Overview
• CMS’ IPFQR program staff conducted interviews
with advocates, professional associations, and
government agencies concerned with inpatient
psychiatric care
• Results from the interviews will be used to:
Better understand the impacts of the program
Improve IPF policy and quality measurement

Qualitative Results: Themes
The following themes were identified in stakeholders’
qualitative comments: • Quality should be measured across the continuum of care, with IPFs
focusing on warm hand-offs between providers.
“Increasing IPF accountability for what happens to patients after discharge
could be improved. Since hospital stays are relatively short, greater emphasis is
needed on managing transitions to outpatient care and what can be done to
prevent patients from falling through cracks and ending-up back in the hospital.”
– Patient Advocacy Organization
“The program should focus upon coordinated care and connection with
providers upon discharge . . . Continuity of care and active care coordination is
a huge issue.” – Provider Advocacy Organization
“There should be more measures around transition to and from IPFs, ensuring
continuity of care, post-discharge monitoring, and follow-up.” – HHS Agency
21
Qualitative Results: Themes cont.
• Opportunity exists to better integrate CMS/HHS behavioral health
programs.
“CMS and others (like SAMHSA) should support a common language and
common format for quality reporting. Defining a common understanding and
measurement strategy is key and takes time.” – Advocacy Organization
“We’d like to see improved communications with the field, specifically
regarding long-range planning about where we want to get to [regarding
quality].” – Provider Advocacy Organization
“It would be great to have measures that go across [government] programs.”
– HHS Agency
• Medical and psychiatric conditions should be treated together.
“Measures should look at a patients' whole-health (thorough physical
examination) and not just psychiatric issues . . . Underlying issues can
manifest with psychiatric symptoms. “ – Patient Advocacy Organization
22
Qualitative Results: Measures
Stakeholders also identified future measures and
measure concepts in the following main areas: • Patient safety/assaults
“A patient’s number one concern is safety.” – Provider Advocacy Organization
“There are concerns about the number of violent incidences in IPFs . . . we
support a measure of assaults.” – Provider Advocacy Organization
“We recommend measuring assaults by other patients and staff.” – Patient
Advocacy Organization
• Patient experience
“We are the most concerned about patient experience and whether the patient
was treated respectfully. The program needs a uniform measure of patient
experience.” – Patient Advocacy Organization
“We are interested in the development of a patient perception measure.”
– Provider Advocacy Organization
“Patient experience is a gap.” – HHS Agency
23
Qualitative Results: Measures cont.
• Access to care “The program should include measures of access to inpatient care, such
as measuring the time between referral to inpatient treatment and actual
admission.” – HHS Agency
“Our biggest concern is with the access to treatment by the seriously
mentally ill.” – HHS Agency
• Outcome measures, in general “Members would like to see more incentives/accountability for outcomes.”
– Patient Advocacy Organization
“Discharge measures should be clearly tied to outcomes.” – Provider
Advocacy Organization
“We should be shifting the paradigm of quality measurement to focus on
outcomes rather than processes.” – Agency

to four measures over the project period of performance
(FY 2015–FY2018)
• Maintenance and reevaluation of measures in the IPFQRP
• Support of the rulemaking process, dry runs, and other
measure implementation activities
• Coordination of measure development, maintenance, and
implementation activities with other measure stewards

Specifications
New Measure Development for FY2016: Medication Reconciliation at Admission
28
Measure Type: Process
Measure Description: Percent of IPF admissions for which
mediation reconciliation was completed on admission for each
prescription/non-prescription product, including medication
name, dose, route, frequency, and purpose
Importance of Measure: Evidence suggests that accurate
medication history/reconciliation reduces medication errors
and ADEs
Patient/Caregiver Perspective: Encourage patient/caregiver
engagement in the medication reconciliation process which
allows them to express concerns and preferences regarding
medication use
New Measure Development for FY2016: Medication Continuation within 30 Days of Inpatient Discharge
29
Measure Type: Process
Measure Description: Percent of IPF discharges for which
patients were dispensed pharmacotherapy treatment within
30 days of discharge for three specific conditions: major
depressive disorder, schizophrenia, and bipolar disorder
Importance of Measure: Continuation of evidence-based
medications has been shown to reduce relapse and improve
rehospitalization rates
Patient/Caregiver Perspective: Consistently noted the
desire for better discharge planning and care continuity
including medication management and regular follow-up
New Measure Development for FY2016: Opioid- or Psychotropic-Related Adverse Drug Events
Measure Type: Outcome
Measure Description: Percent of IPF discharges for which
patients had at least one adverse drug event (ADEs) related
to opioid OR psychotropic use during the hospitalization
Importance of Measure: Reducing ADEs is a national
priority
Patient/Caregiver Perspective: Monitoring side effects
related to medication use is important, providers should listen
to patient’s concerns and preferences about medication use
