Academics – Then vs. Now1970s – 1980s

• “profess”or• “teaching rounds” 3

times per week• Residents and students

were the primary physicians

• Limited supervision• Solid state funding

Today• Clinical FTE defined by

subtraction• ↑ Productivity

demands– wRVU / CFTE– Research funding

• ↑ supervision• ↑ direct care by faculty• ↓ state funding

State Appropriation (in Thousands)

$209,531

Represents the value of 91-93 State Appropriation stated in current dollars

OHSU State Funding: 1991 - 2011

Academic Pediatrics in USA – Issues• ↑ part-time faculty

• ↑ Pressure for Increased Productivity– Tied to compensation

• Mission Competition: Care, teaching, research• Financial

– ↓ state funding– ↓endowments

• Resident Duty Hours / R3P– ↑ clinical work by faculty– Changing composition of ‘teams’– ↑ ‘flexibility’– ↓ hours (Pl1s limited to 16 hours in FY12)

Academic Pediatrics in USA

• Issues (cont’d)– Workforce

• Shortage of subspecialists• Maldistribution of Providers – rural vs. urban

– Reimbursement• Pediatric reimbursement lower than for adult

– Medicaid reimbursement below Medicare

• ‘Cognitive’ specialties have lower reimbursement• Universal Coverage / Health Care Reform

– Medical Home

Decreased Funding for Ped Research

• Pediatric Research funded by NIH– 1994 14.1%– 2000 12.6%– 2005 11.3%

• Pediatric Research in top science journals (Science, Nature, PNAS, J Clin Invest, NEJM)– Declined by 35% from 2000 to 2006

• Children are 25% of the US population

Academic Pediatrics in Oregon• OHSU is Oregon’s Academic Health Center (AHC)

– ‘top 20’ medical school• Very Competitive Environment in Pediatrics

– 4 health systems compete in metro PDX• Competition can make you stronger (+)• Fragmentation of Care (-)• Potential negative impact on recruitment (-)• Potential negative impact on payment from insurers (-)

• Urban vs. Rural– Distance to subspecialty pediatrics a barrier to access

OREGON – A FEW REMARKS ABOUT CHILD HEALTH

Healthy Kids (OR)

• Insurance tax (1%): $105M over 2 years• $240M in matching federal funds

– 80,000 uninsured kids to get coverage by 6/11• Hospital tax (up to 5.5%):

– 35,000 uninsured adults to get coverage• OR – 1 of 12 states to guarantee universal

coverage for kids– But…………. Coverage does not equal access.

Workforce Issues in OR

• To get OR to national numbers (#providers per 100k kids)– 7 cardiologists– 1 critical care– 7 emergency med– 3 GI– 3 Heme/Onc– 3 ID– 8 Neonatologists

– 1 Nephrologist– 3 pulm– 1 rheum– 42 general pedsAdol, Develop, Endo above

HEALTH CARE REFORM

Real Health Care Reform• Providers work at the top of their license / training

– Primary care / prevention work will be increasingly done by non-MDs– PCPs will see sicker kids and take on more routine subspecialty care

(CSHCN, Chronic disease, etc.)– Subspecialists

• Work more closely with PCPs• Only see the most complicated patients / provide treatment

• Patients & Families – the most underutilized resource in healthcare– Electronic data will enable clinical decisions

• Systems and Networks will replace older business models• Roadmap from here to there?

Christensen, Clayton, The Innovator’s Prescription, 2009

Concluding Remarks

• Oregon – the Goldilocks State– ~ 4 million people– ~ 1 million kids– Significant barriers to care access

• SES – rural & frontier populations• Geographic

• We can show the USA how to take better care of kids– By working together in care delivery– By working together in advocacy
