Supplemental Materials 1. Description of Population-based Payments for Primary Care (3PC) in Hawaii

In 2016, the Blue Cross Blue Shield of Hawaii, Hawaii Medical Service Association (HMSA), initiated a new primary care global payment system, Population-based Payments for Primary Care (3PC). Both adult and pediatric patients are covered under this model, with care provided by provider organizations (POs) and primary care physicians (PCPs) in internal medicine, pediatrics, and family medicine, as well as other e clinicians such as nurse practitioners and physician assistants.

Led by HMSA’s CEO and Chief Transformation Officer, this health plan-level initiative has a defined set of primary goals for its new system that includes: designing a health care delivery approach that is more conducive to sustainable cost growth; remodeling the financial and non-financial incentives for POs and PCPs to encourage patient-centered care; and controlling the rate of increase in cost of care. As part of this last goal, HMSA sought to reduce low-value services. One such target was high-cost imaging and imaging-based procedures. Because of perceptions of substantial overuse of these services, HMSA tried over the years to engage vendors in utilization management. These initiatives were rolled out over intervals from 2006 to 2015 across the entire network and primarily included precertification for the following: magnetic resonance imaging (MRI); magnetic resonance angiography and magnetic resonance spectroscopy; computed tomography (CT) and computed tomography angiography; nuclear cardiology; functional MRI; positron emission tomography; CT colonography; cardiac computed tomography angiography; and brain, liver, kidney, bone, and/or joint and cerebrospinal fluid flow imaging single positron emission computed tomography imaging.

Supplemental Materials 3. Propensity score model description

Spending outcomes were analyzed using propensity-weighted generalized linear models with a log link and gamma distribution, and utilization outcomes were analyzed using propensity-weighted unconditional negative binomial models to account for overdispersion. The propensity model included age, sex, and risk score (ERG, episode risk group).

Supplemental Figure 1. Tests of Parallel Trends for Spending and Utilization Outcomes

These graphs show the results of generalized linear regression models for each outcome as the dependent variable, and independent variables of time (year) fixed effects, pilot indicator variable, and the interaction with covariates included in the main regression models. Spending models used a log link and gamma distribution; utilization models used identity link and normal distribution (i.e. ordinary least squares). The estimates show that most interaction term coefficients are not statistically significant, indicating a lack of divergent trends in the pre-period for the outcome variables.
