Lessons Learned from the Field z Coders and clinical staff DO NOT have

a shared understanding of PC-01 expectations: – Providers DO NOT have a clear

understanding of documentation requirements: using ACOG terminology but abstractors adhering to manual specifications= differing interpretations

© C

opyr

Joi

nt C

omm

Lessons Learned from the Field (Cont.) z Some hospitals still do not have a

“hard-stop” policy z Team division:

–  Nursing taking the lead in accountability “enforcing” PC-01 resulting in “disharmony” with providers

– Further divide between quality/coding teams and nursing/provider teams

© C

How can we improve performance for PC-01? z Adopt a hospital wide policy

establishing criteria for performing early term medical inductions and cesarean sections

z Require review of requests not meeting criteria

z Clear, concise documentation by all clinicians

z Coder & clinical education as needed

Cesarean Birth

Original Performance Measure/Source Developer: California Maternal Quality Care Collaborative

Rationale

z Skyrocketing increase in rates z Most variable portion of a primary CB

rate z Performance improvement opportunity

© C

opyr

ight

, The

Joi

nt C

omm

issi

on

Why are there no exclusions to the measure such as maternal cardiac conditions, fetal distress, etc.?

z Variation of a primary CB rate which does not allow for exclusions

z Designed to measure complications that largely arise in labor and not exclude them

z Some medical practices during labor lead to the development of indications that were potentially avoidable

Answer: z Maternal conditions are not the norm z These conditions comprise ~2% of all

exclusions z Maternal conditions cannot be modeled

in the electronic clinical quality measure (eCQM)

z PC-05 will be similar to PC-02: Cesarean Birth which also has no medical exclusions
