Key Findings

• Patient mortality decreased significantly in 7 of the 26 treatment categories between 2002 and 2003 (in categories where two years of mortality data were available). The largest decline was in Heart Attack (Medical Management), where the mortality decreased from 14.4% in 2002 to 13.5% in 2003. No procedure or treatment group showed a significant increase in mortality.

• The mortality rate for all conditions re-ported for both 2002 and 2003 decreased significantly, dropping from 4.3% in 2002 to 4.1% in 2003.

• There were 54,610 readmissions for any reason in 2003 (for the categories cov-ered in the report). These readmissions amounted to approximately $1.7 billion in charges and 341,000 hospital days.

• The readmission rate for conditions report-ed for both 2002 and 2003 increased, rising from 18.1% in 2002 to 18.4% in 2003.

• There were 12,917 readmissions for a complication or infection in 2003 (for the categories covered in the report). These readmissions amounted to approximately $530 million in charges and 98,000 hospital days.

• Statewide readmission rates for complica-tion or infection in Stroke (Non-hemor-rhagic) increased significantly, rising from 4.8% in 2002 to 5.4% in 2003. Statewide

readmission rates for complication or infec-tion for Infectious Pneumonia dropped sig-nificantly – from 6.0% to 5.7%. No other procedure or treatment group showed a significant change in the readmission rate for complication or infection.

• Among the conditions reported, Stroke (Hemorrhagic) had the highest readmission rate for complication or infection at 7.5% and Hysterectomy (Vaginal) had the low-est rate at 1.8%.

• Between 2002 and 2003, there was a sig-nificant increase in the readmission rate for any reason in Stroke - Non-hemorrhagic (13.9% in 2002 to 14.8% in 2003) and Congestive Heart Failure (25.5% in 2002 to 26.0% in 2003). No other procedure or treatment group showed a significant change in the readmission rate for any reason.

• There was wide variation in length of stay among hospitals. The condition with the most variation was Diabetes with Am-putation, where hospitals’ average length of stay ranged from 4.2 to 16.8 days after taking patient risk factors into account.

• Between 2002 and 2003, there were signifi-cant decreases in average length of stay for 7 of the 26 procedure or treatment groups (with two years of data available). There were also significant increases in 3 proce-dure or treatment groups.

Foreword

The Pennsylvania Health Care Cost Contain-ment Council (PHC4) was established as an independent state agency by the General Assembly and the Governor of the Common-wealth of Pennsylvania in 1986. To help im-prove the quality and restrain the cost of health care, PHC4 promotes health care competition through the collection, analysis and public dissemination of uniform cost and quality-related information. Thanks to the vision of its General Assembly, Pennsylvania has begun to build a new health care marketplace where purchasers, consumers, providers, payors, and policy makers can make more informed deci-sions about the delivery of health care. This Hospital Performance Report is one of a series of public reports designed to achieve this goal. Information about additional treatment and surgical categories is posted on the PHC4 Web site at www.phc4.org.

What is the purpose of the report?

Before we make a major purchase, we normally familiarize ourselves with as much information as we can gather about the available products or services. By comparing what we can learn about the quality of the product as well as what will be charged for it, we decide on what we believe is the best quality product for the best possible price. It should be the same with health care services. Unfortunately, the infor-mation available to consumers and purchasers to make such decisions is limited and often not widely accessible. PHC4’s Hospital Performance Report can help to fill that vacuum of informa-tion and assist consumers and purchasers in

making more informed health care decisions. This report can also serve as an aid to provid-ers in highlighting additional opportunities for quality improvement and cost containment. It should not be used in emergency situations.

What is new in this report?

Clinical Conditions - This report now includes 29 conditions based on ICD-9-CM (International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification) codes, which specify the clinical reason(s) for a patient’s hospitalization. Of the 29 code-based condi-tions, there are 19 diagnoses and 10 procedures. Descriptions of these conditions are on pages 8 and 9.

About this report

• This report covers inpatient hospital discharges during Federal Fiscal Year (FFY) 2003, which includes data from October 1, 2002 through September 30, 2003.

• This report is divided into three regional versions and is hospital-specific.

• All Pennsylvania general and most special-ty general acute care hospitals, regardless of bed size, are included.

• The hospital names have been shortened in many cases for formatting purposes. Hospital names may be different today than during the time period covered in this report due to mergers and name changes. A list of changes can be found on the PHC4 Web site at www.phc4.org.

Understanding this Report


Information about additional treatment and surgical categories is posted on the Web site at www.phc4.org

Where does the data come from?

Pennsylvania hospitals are required by law to submit certain information to PHC4. The data compiled for the purpose of this publication is reported as it was submitted to PHC4 by Pennsylvania hospitals. The data was subject to standard verification processes by PHC4. In addition, hospitals are required to submit data indicating in simple terms “how sick the patient was” or, in technical jargon, a “severity score.” The data is then risk-adjusted.

Accounting for high-risk patients

Even though two patients may be admitted to the hospital with the same illness, there may be differences in the seriousness of their conditions. In order to report fair compari-sons among hospitals, PHC4 uses a complex mathematical formula to “risk-adjust” the mortality, length of stay and readmission data, meaning that hospitals receive “extra credit” for treating patients that are more seriously ill or at a greater risk than others. Risk-adjusting the data is important because sicker patients may be more likely to die, stay in the hospital longer, or be readmitted.

A sophisticated patient risk classification system called Atlas Outcomes™ is used to collect clinical information about hospital patients and to predict each patient’s chance of mortality and expected length of stay. Atlas Outcomes™ is a clinical information system developed by MediQual Systems, Inc.®, a busi-ness of Cardinal Health. This system is based on electronically available admit/discharge/transfer and laboratory data, as well as selected

clinical data abstracted from the patient record including EKG readings, vital signs, medical his-tory, imaging, pathology and operative results. PHC4 also independently adjusts for other risk factors such as poverty rate or the presence of cancer in the patient population included in this report.

A comprehensive description of the risk-adjust-ment techniques used for this report can be found in the Technical Notes on PHC4’s Web site at www.phc4.org.

What is measured in the report and why is it important?

PHC4’s mission is to provide the public with information that will help to improve the qual-ity of health care services while also providing opportunities to restrain costs. The measure-ment of quality in health care is not an exact science. There may be a number of ways to define quality; however, for the purposes of this report, six measures are suggested. With the exception of volume of cases, each of these measures has been adjusted for patient risk. (For more information, see the previous section entitled, Accounting for high-risk patients.)

• Volume of Cases – For each hospital, the number of cases for each condition, after exclusions, is reported. This can give a patient or a purchaser an idea of the experience each facility has in treating such patients. Studies have suggested that in at least some areas, the volume of cases treated by a physician or hospital can be a factor in the success of the treatment.


Understanding the Symbols

Symbols representing ratings for risk-adjusted mortality, readmissions, and length of stay outliers are displayed in the report. These symbols reflect a comparison of a hospital’s actual rate and what is expected.

� Significantly higher than expected.

� Not significantly different than expected.

� Significantly lower than expected.

The number of cases represents sepa-rate hospital admissions, not individual patients. A patient readmitted several times would be included each time in the number of cases. Outcome data are not reported for hospitals that had fewer than five cases evaluated for a measure; such low volume cannot be considered mean-ingful and, as such, the outcome data are not displayed. Not Reported appears in the table when this occurs.

Note: Small or specialty hospitals may report low volume due to the unique patient popu-lation they serve or geographic location.

• Risk-Adjusted Mortality – PHC4 has used risk-adjusted mortality statistics as a mea-sure of quality since it began publishing reports in 1989. To determine the mortal-ity rating, PHC4 compares the number of patients one could reasonably expect to die in a given hospital in a given condition with the actual number of deaths.

• Risk-Adjusted Length of Stay – The length of time a patient stays in the hospi-tal can reflect how successful the hospi-tal is in providing treatment and has an impact on the resources used in delivering treatment.

• Risk-Adjusted Length of Stay Outliers – Length of stay “outliers” are abnormally short or long hospitalizations – those individual hospitalizations where the difference be-tween the actual and expected length of stay was in the top (long length of stay outliers) or bottom (short length of stay outliers) 5% of all statewide hospitalizations. They are the hospitalizations where the difference between the actual and expected length of stay was above or below the normal range for all hospitalizations in the state. For any one hospital, the outlier rate is the number of outliers divided by the total number of hospitalizations. Length of stay may be an important quality of care indicator; how-ever, many factors affect length of stay, some of which are beyond the hospital’s control. Abnormally short or long hospital stays may result from factors such as payor expectations, complications, clinical treat-ment advancements, or avoidable admis-sions due to inadequate health and social support in the community. Reported ratings should be interpreted cautiously and do not necessarily indicate high or low quality care.

• Risk-Adjusted Readmissions – A read-mission is defined as a subsequent acute care hospitalization, for any reason in any Pennsylvania hospital, where the admit


date is within 30 days of the discharge date of the original hospitalization. To deter-mine the risk-adjusted readmission rating, PHC4 compares the number of patients one could reasonably expect to be readmit-ted in a given hospital in a given condition with the actual number of readmissions. The methodology was designed to limit planned readmissions; however, some may still be included. While some re-hospi-talizations can be expected, high quality care may lessen the need for subsequent hospitalizations.

• Risk-Adjusted Readmissions for Complication/Infection – The risk-ad-justed readmission rating (discussed above) takes into consideration all subsequent hospitalizations within 30 days of the discharge date of the original hospitaliza-tion. However, this measure includes only readmissions with a principal di-agnosis of a complication/infection (see the Technical Notes on the PHC4 Web site, www.phc4.org, for a detailed description).

Other data issues

• Do Not Resuscitate Cases – The mortal-ity analysis includes Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) cases.

• Not all data is reported for all measures. For example, readmission rates are not re-ported for Heart Attack – Medical Manage-ment because subsequent admissions are often planned.

Hospital charges

This report also includes the average hospital charge for each of the 29 code-based conditions. While charges are what the hospital reports on the billing form, they may not accurately represent the amount a hospital receives in payment for the services it delivers. Hospitals usually receive less in actual payments than the listed charge. However, charges are the only data compiled that reflect the relative cost of all services provided by hospitals. Consequently, hospital charges are used almost universally by those attempting to assess the costs of health care.

A look at the financial data submitted by hospitals to PHC4 can shed some light on the relationship between the amount hospitals charge or bill for services, and the amount they receive in Net Patient Revenue (NPR). Accord-ing to PHC4’s Hospital Financial Analysis 2003, Volume One, Pennsylvania hospitals received, on average statewide, $.30 in NPR for every dollar that they charged in PA Fiscal Year 2003 (7/1/02 through 6/30/03).

Within the geographic area covered in this report, hospitals received, on average, $.36 in NPR for every dollar charged. Broken down even further, hospitals within Southwestern Pennsylvania received, on average, $.35 in NPR for every dollar charged, Northwestern Penn-sylvania hospitals received an average of $.39 on the dollar, and hospitals in the Southern Al-legheny regions (Somerset, Johnstown, Altoona areas) received an average of $.41 on the dollar.

These regional figures are aggregate only and cannot be applied to individual hospitals or


individual average charges for conditions to calculate actual payment figures. This is due to substantial variation in hospital charges from hospital to hospital and from insurance product line to product line. There is also substantial variation in actual payments that hospitals receive for specific services. Actual payments to hospitals are imposed by Medicare and Medic-aid, or result from negotiations with insurance companies, other third-party payors, and even individual patients.

How to use the report

• Patients/Consumers can use this re-port as an aid in making decisions about where to seek treatment for the conditions detailed in this report. As with any health care decision, PHC4 urges the reader to use this report in conjunction with a physician or other health care provider when making a health care decision.

• Group Benefits Purchasers/Insurers can use this report as part of a process in determining where employees, subscrib-ers, members, or participants should go for their health care.

• Health Care Providers can use this re-port as an aid in identifying opportunities for quality improvement and cost contain-ment.

• Policy Makers/Public Officials can use this report to enhance their understanding of health care issues, to ask provocative questions, to raise public awareness of important issues and to help constituents identify quality health care options.

• All of the previously mentioned groups can use this information to raise important questions about why differences exist in the quality and efficiency of care.

This report can be used as a tool. It should not be used to generalize about the overall quality of care at a hospital, but instead to examine hospital performance in specific treatment categories. The measurement of quality is highly complex, and the information used to capture such measures is limited. A hospital death is frequently an unavoidable consequence of a patient’s medical condition. Hospitals and physicians may do everything right and the patient can still die. However, the statistical methods used eliminate many of the clinical and medical differences among the patients in different hospitals, thereby allowing us to explore the real differences in the measures presented in this report. The pursuit of these issues can play an important and constructive role in raising the quality while restraining the cost of health care in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.


Non-compliant hospitals

Hospitals are required under Pennsylvania law (Act 14) to submit timely, accurate health care data to PHC4. PHC4, acting upon the advice of its Technical Advisory Group, a panel of physicians and other health care experts, has determined that hospitals missing the required UB-92 data or patient severity scores in excess of or equal to 10% overall are non-compli-ant with state law and are excluded from this report. These hospitals are listed below. Although hospitalization data specific to non-compliant hospitals is not shown in this report, these records have been included in the overall analysis for the measures included in this report, and thus are reflected in the statewide and regional totals.

Code-Based Diagnosis Descriptions

Abnormal Heartbeat: Abnormal heart rate or rhythm including tachycardia, bradycardia, fibril-lation, flutter and heart block. Does not include heart attack, congenital heart defects, or heart valve disorders.

Blood Clot in Extremities: Inflammation of a blood vessel with the formation of a thrombus (blood clot) in a deep or superficial vein involv-ing the legs, arms, and other parts of the body. Includes deep vein thrombosis (DVT).

Blood Clot in Lung: The formation of a throm-bus (blood clot) and/or infarction (damage or death) of the lung tissue. Often called pulmonary embolism or pulmonary infarct.

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD): Chronic lung disease where breathing is difficult due to airway narrowing, excess mucus production or inflammation. It is caused most frequently by bronchitis, asthma, or emphysema.

Congestive Heart Failure (CHF): Heart failure occurs when the heart loses its ability to pump enough blood through the body. Heart failure usually worsens over time as the heart gradually loses its pumping ability and works less effi-ciently, resulting in high blood pressure and fluid collection in the lungs.

Diabetes with Amputation: Includes patients who have diabetes and undergo an amputation of the arm, leg, or toe.

Diabetes – Medical Management: Includes patients hospitalized for control of blood sugar. Conditions include coma, high blood sugar crisis, and fluid imbalances. Kidney, eye, nerve, or blood vessel damage related to diabetes are included.

Heart Attack – Medical Management: A heart attack (myocardial infarction) occurs when there is blockage or obstruction in the blood vessels that supply oxygen to the heart muscle causing an in-farction (damage or death) to an area of the heart.

Included are heart attack patients who were treated without a balloon (angioplasty) procedure or open heart surgery.

Intestinal Obstruction: Partial or complete blockage of the intestine often caused by scar tissue, tumors, twisting and kinking, or decreased blood supply that prevents the contents in the intestine from passing beyond the blockage.

Kidney Failure: Short and long-term kidney (renal) failure due to high blood pressure, heart disease, or damage to kidney tissue. Does not include dialysis or transplants.

Kidney and Urinary Tract Infections: Acute and chronic infections of the kidney and urinary tract. Does not include urinary stone or urinary symptoms such as frequency, bleeding, or pain.

Pneumonia – Aspiration: Inflammation of the lungs and bronchial tubes caused by inhaling foreign material, such as food, drink, vomit, or secretions from the mouth into the lungs. Does not include infectious pneumonia.

Pneumonia – Infectious: Simple pneumonia (inflammation of the lung) includes viral and bac-terial pneumonia, as well as pleurisy, an inflam-mation of the membrane surrounding the lungs.

Respiratory Failure with Mechanical Ven-tilation: Failure of the lungs to support the exchange of essential gases (oxygen and carbon dioxide) making the use of mechanical ventilation necessary. A mechanical ventilator (“breathing machine”) delivers oxygen through a tube placed in the mouth or nose into the trachea (windpipe). The breathing machine can be set to help or com-pletely control breathing.

Respiratory Failure without Mechanical Ventilation: Inability of the lungs to support the exchange of essential gases (oxygen and carbon dioxide) without the need for mechanical ventila-tion.

Stomach and Intestinal Bleeding: Bleeding from ulcers or areas of inflammation in the stom-


ach, small or large intestine, rectum, or esophagus (muscular tube that connects the mouth to the stomach).

Septicemia: Also known as blood poisoning, is a system-wide infection of the patient’s blood. Does not include post-operative or post-injury infections.

Stroke – Hemorrhagic: Stroke is a cardiovascu-lar disease that affects the blood vessels supply-ing blood to the brain. In hemorrhagic strokes, a blood vessel in the brain breaks or ruptures and causes bleeding (hemorrhage) within or around the brain.

Stroke – Non-hemorrhagic: In ischemic (non-hemorrhagic) strokes, a blood clot blocks a blood vessel in the brain or an artery leading to the brain. This is the most common type of stroke. Transient ischemic attack (temporary stroke symptoms) is not included.

Code-Based Procedure Descriptions

Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair: An abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a bulge in the aorta (the aorta is the main blood vessel coming from the heart that supplies blood to all organs) in the abdomen. Does not include endovascular (minimally invasive graft technique) repairs or ruptured aneurysm repairs.

Colorectal Procedures: The majority of colorec-tal procedures are performed in relation to the presence of cancer or diverticulitis (inflammation of part of the lower digestive tract). Does not include patients with abdominal trauma.

Gallbladder Removal – Laparoscopic: Cho-lecystectomy is the operation for removal of the gallbladder. Included are patients who underwent this type of surgery carried out with a laparoscope (microscopic camera) through 3 or 4 small inci-sions.

Gallbladder Removal – Open: Traditional gallbladder removal surgery that is carried out

through an incision in the right side of the upper abdomen.

Heart Attack – Angioplasty/Stent: Treat-ment (called percutaneous translumial coronary angioplasty or PTCA) of a heart attack using special balloons to open up obstructed arteries and increase blood flow to the heart. Often, a stent (a mesh tube) is inserted in the blocked or narrowed artery to open it wider and prevent renarrowing or recurring blockage. Does not include coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG).

Hip Fracture – Surgical Repair: Fracture (“bro-ken bone”) of the hip involves the top portion of the femur (thigh bone). Surgical repair includes inserting a pin, rod or screw into the bone to hold the fracture together for healing or may also include a partial or total hip joint replacement.

Hysterectomy – Abdominal: An operation, performed through an abdominal incision, to remove the uterus (womb) and sometimes the ovaries and fallopian tubes. This type of surgery is performed when vaginal or laparoscopic ap-proaches are deemed inappropriate for a variety of conditions including female cancers, uterine fibroids, endometriosis, pelvic trauma, and uterine or vaginal prolapse.

Hysterectomy – Vaginal: Includes hysterec-tomy through a vaginal approach and those lapa-roscopically (use of microscopic camera) assisted. Includes hysterectomy performed for a variety of conditions such as female cancers, pelvic trauma, uterine fibroids, and endometriosis.

Prostatectomy – Radical: Radical prostatecto-my is the surgical removal of the entire prostate. This type of surgery is usually performed when localized cancer is present.

Prostatectomy – Transurethral: This type of surgery involves the surgical removal of part of the prostate gland and is usually done to relieve urinary symptoms caused by benign (non-cancer-ous) enlargement of the prostate.

The mortality, length of stay, and readmission figures account for varying illness levels among patients.
