– Electronic Health Record (EHR) Meaningful Use (MU)
• Applies to physicians, nurse practitioners, clinical nurse specialists, physician assistants, and certified registered nurse anesthetists
MERIT-BASED INCENTIVE PAYMENT SYSTEM (MIPS) FEE-FOR-SERVICE ADJUSTMENTS
• Adjusts Medicare payments based on performance on a single budget-neutral payment beginning in 2019
• Losers Negative Adjustments to Payments
– 2019: Up to ‒ 4%
– 2020: Up to ‒ 5%
– 2021: Up to ‒ 7%
– 2022: Up to ‒ 9%
• Winners Positive Adjustments to Payments
– 2019: Up to + 12%

THE IOM’S CEO CHECKLIST FOR HIGH-VALUE HEALTH CARE: 5 SELECTED ITEMS
• Infrastructure Fundamentals Information technology best practices: automated, reliable information to and from the point of care
Evidence protocols: effective, efficient, and consistent care
• Care Delivery Priorities Integrated care: right care, right setting, right providers, right teamwork
Shared decision making: patient–clinician collaboration on care plans
Targeted services: tailored community and clinic interventions for resource-intensive patients

INCREASING THE VALUE OF SURGICAL CARE
Perioperative Surgical Home must translate, implement, sustain, and document quality, safety, and satisfaction improvement and cost reduction strategies:
– Decrease practice variability – including unit of service cost for anesthesia services
– Increase practice efficiency – including the maximum use of advanced practice nurses
– Patient risk stratification and mitigation – including open dialogue about futile surgery
– Perioperative optimization of patient co-morbidities –including optimal timing of surgery
– Patient education and counseling – including “What can I do to improve the outcomes that are most important to me?”
Vetter TR, Jones KA: Perioperative Surgical Home: Perspective II. In Value-Based Care, Anesthesiology Clinics 2015 [In press].
ONE DEFINITION OF THE PERIOPERATIVE SURGICAL HOMEPatient-centered, institution-led, interdisciplinary,
team-based, coordinated, standardized care model
Guides the patient through the entire surgical continuum, from the decision for surgery to post-hospital discharge care
Seeks to enhance surgical experience and outcomes and to add measurable value to the highest cost segment of healthcare

INTEGRATED CARE PATHWAY (ICP)
• ICP = Task-orientated care plan that details all the essential steps or elements in the care of allpatients undergoing a specific surgical procedure
• Toyota Production System (TPS) approach to making cars and LEAN Six Sigma methodology are rigorously applied to surgical patient care.
• Collect and analyze data to highlight and addressany lack of process standardization and resulting inefficiencies, rework, and waste

EXAMPLES OF INTEGRATED CARE PATHWAYS
Campbell H, Hotchkiss R, Bradshaw N, Porteous M. Integrated Care Pathways. BMJ. 1998 Jan 10;316(7125):133-7.
• Conventional national clinical practice guidelines can have limited local clinician buy-in and adoption
• PROMPT™ local clinician-designed/driven approach:
– Accommodates patients' individual differences
– Respects and seeks local providers' clinical acumen
– Keeps pace with the rapid growth of medical knowledge
• PROMPT™ is not prescriptive “cook-book” medicine but a local best practices-based decision support tool
• Some examples of PROMPTs (55+ in pipeline at UAB):
– PONV, postoperative delirium; patient-centered blood management; perioperative anticoagulant therapy

WHAT PROBLEMS ARE WE TRYING TO FIX?
• Incomplete & inconsistent patient preparation for surgery
• Incomplete documentation of patient co-morbidities
• Incomplete & inaccurate medication reconciliation
• Irregular & inefficient patient scheduling and throughput
• Persistent case delays and cancellations
• Continued failure to rescue and never events
• Greater than desired morbidity and mortality
• Higher than desired hospital readmission rates
• Difficulty with compliance with key performance measures
• Lower than desired patient and family satisfaction
• Excessive and variable cost per episode of surgical care
• Observed-to-expected (O:E) mortality ratio is an increasingly important health care quality metric.
• Allows quantification/comparison of survival outcomes among different providers/institutions
• Hospital revenue will be directly affected by its risk-adjusted mortality rate.
• As hospital performance data circulate ever more widely to the public, the O:E ratio is quite prominent.

• Modern death rate from complications/adverse events associated with anesthesia has decreased by 97%:
– 64 deaths per 100,000 anesthetics in late 1940’s
– By 2005, only 0.82 deaths per 100,000 anesthetics
• Both increased age and prevalence of chronic diseases have been independently associated with increased surgical mortality.
Maintaining or improving on the 20th century gains in anesthesia-related mortality will be challenging.
• The Perioperative Surgical Home offers the needed more comprehensive and coordinated approach to the management of our older and sicker surgical patients.

WHEREVER YOU GO – THERE YOU ARE
• Despite similar rates of overall complications and of major complications ─
• MORTALITY in patients with major complications was significantly greater in hospitals with very high overall mortality compared with those with very low overall mortality.
Surgical death rates vary widely across US hospitals ─ from 3.5% in very-low-mortality hospitals to 6.9% in very-high-mortality hospitals.

BUT WHY?
• Silber et al. (1992) = Hospital deaths after adverse occurrences such as postsurgical complications
• Contributors to FTR have been broadly categorized:
1) Lack of a timely response prompt recognition of the complication
2) Lack of an appropriate response correct management and treatment
• An abundance of retrospective data supports that adverse events in general ward (non-ICU) patients are preceded by a significant period — on the order of hours — of physiologic deterioration
• Most common causes in the surgical population1) Respiratory complications (38%)
2) Infection complications (28%)
3) Cardiovascular complications (23%)

• The Director of Perioperative Informatics and Innovation (“Director”) will be a key leader in the transformation of care across the pre-operative, intra-operative, and post-operative care, leading a team in the implementation of systems across the new 14 story Josie Robertson Surgery Center.
• The Director will be a leader in the development of system-wide analytics initiatives that will transform care for MSK patients.
• The qualified candidate will have experience overseeing the design, build and implementation of clinical systems combining informatics and clinical process, data analytics and the ability to optimize the interoperability of clinical information systems to enhance patient safety and clinical outcomes.

• The Perioperative Surgical Home is not intended to replace the surgeon’s primary patient care responsibility…
• Rather aligns and leverages the talents and abilities of the entire perioperative care team in the service of the patient
• From a surgeon’s perspective, the Perioperative Surgical Home model can create value in four primary ways:1) Takes advantage of the well-established relationships among
the surgeon/anesthesiologist/intensivist/hospitalist
2) Expands upon the existing pre-, intra-, and post-operative relationship between the anesthesiologist and the patient
3) Increases the quality of surgical care by increasing the scope and depth of the perioperative team
4) Improves the surgeon’s efficiency and productivity

PREOPERATIVE PREHABILITATION
• “Prehabilitation” is an intervention to enhance functional capacity in anticipation of a forthcoming physiological stressor.
• Preoperative prehabilitation aims to enhance functional capacity preoperatively for better tolerance of surgery and to facilitate recovery.
• Also accurately predict and then reduce need for prolonged postoperative, post-discharge institutional rehabilitation and convalescence

• Necessary to expand the core knowledge, skills, and experience expected of the anesthesiologist
• Need to view the “Perioperative Medicine” as an expansion of the specialty, rather than an abdication of the traditional and still vital intraoperative role
• Not all anesthesiologists will be able or willing to play a role in this new activity.
• But just as with the seminal development within anesthesia of the subspecialties of critical care medicine and pain medicine, a subset will need to do so and be supported by colleagues in their efforts
