Heart Disease and Strokes Leading Killers in the United States
Cause 1 of every 3 deaths Over 2 million heart attacks and strokes each
year 800,000 deaths Leading cause of preventable death in people <65 $444 B in health care costs and lost productivity Treatment costs are ~$1 for every $6 spent

Comprehensive tobacco control programs work

Community PreventionReducing the Need for Treatment:
Sodium
Menu labeling requirements in chain restaurants
Food purchasing policies to increase access to low sodium foods
Public and professional education about the impact of excess sodium
Publishing info on sodium consumptionAbout 90% of Americans exceed recommended sodium intake
CDC, MMWR 2011;60:1413–7

IOM: Reduce intake as close to zero as possible
FDA in 2003: Requires labeling of trans fats content
Replacing it is feasible, does not increase cost, or change flavor or texture
Monitor and publish trans fat levels in the population
Encourage food industry to eliminate trans fats

Have you stopped selling tobacco products? Do you offer smoking cessation assistance to
your customers, patients, and/or employees? Do you use unique labels to increase
awareness of sodium and trans fats? Do you offer wellness counseling tours or
other unique prevention services?

Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) are groups of doctors, hospitals, and other health care providers, who come together voluntarily to give coordinated high quality care to their Medicare patients
When an ACO succeeds both in both delivering high-quality care and spending health care dollars more wisely, it will share in the savings it achieves for the Medicare program
50% one-sided, 60% two-sided
Medicare Shared Savings Program
![Page 15: 1 Million Hearts FMI Webinar May 10, 2012 John M. O’Brien, PharmD, MPH, Senior Advisor U.S. Department of Health & Human Services | CMS Innovation Center](https://reader037.vdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110208/56649de65503460f94adf742/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Quality is defined by 33 pay-for-reporting or pay-for-performance measures, including:
Patient/caregiver experience (7 measures) Care coordination/patient safety (6 measures) Preventive health (8 measures) At-risk population: Diabetes, Hypertension,
Ischemic Vascular Disease, Heart Failure, Coronary Artery Disease
Expenditures are defined as Part A & B spending

ACOs & Part D
ACOs & Part D sponsors have expressed an interest in working together
CMS has an interest in PDPs playing a greater role in managing the care of FFS beneficiaries and having greater accountability for overall health outcomes
CMS encourages these entities to form appropriate business arrangements that support improve pharmacy care coordination

Incentives Under the ACO Rule
ACOs in good standing and their suppliers may provide items for free or at less than market value if:There is a reasonable connection between the items or
services and the medical care of the beneficiary.The items or services are in-kind and either are
preventive care items or services or advance one or more of the following clinical goals: adherence to a treatment regime; adherence to a drug regime; adherence to a follow-up care plan; or management of a chronic disease or condition.

What Improvement Could Look Like
A State Department of Public Health, QIO, School of Pharmacy, and other partners align efforts to reduce health disparities in hypertension in a county of 11,000 people.
• Other schools/counties in their state test their approach in other locations.
• A nearby statewide initiative is launched. • A national partner achieves results in a
HTN primary care learning collaborative.• An IPA in another state launches a QI
initiative in 14 practices
![Page 30: 1 Million Hearts FMI Webinar May 10, 2012 John M. O’Brien, PharmD, MPH, Senior Advisor U.S. Department of Health & Human Services | CMS Innovation Center](https://reader037.vdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110208/56649de65503460f94adf742/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Tools and “lessons learned” are harvested by QIO & HDSP coordinating centers from leading locations and those
involved in testing change.
• Technical assistance is deployed by the coordinating centers to EACH state node.
• QIOs, HDSPs, RECs, and other partners support learning via LANs and webinars.
• Local knowledge combines with national experience
What Improvement Could Look Like

Measuring Progress
Measurement & Reporting• Short-term, Intermediate, and Long-term metrics reported by the field• Awareness > Activity > Improvements > Outcomes
Results Drive Technical Assistance• High performers analyzed to identify best practices• Low performers investigated to discover barriers to success
Technical Assistance Refines Local Improvement Strategy• Best practices become change practices others may use• High performers mentor others using their tools and methods• Barriers to success overcome with assistance by those who’ve faced similar
challenges

Metrics Across the 5 Year Million Hearts Initiative
Metrics of engagement and involvement of
partners are needed to build MH levers and
activities
Metrics of the levers and activities are needed to
measure short and intermediate outcomes
Metrics of short and intermediate outcomes
are needed to reach our goal of preventing a
million heart attacks and strokes by 2017
