SNF Industry and Evolving Revenue Models August 2016
Medicare Challenge and Opportunity
CMS must encourage decreased SNF lengths of stay through non-FFS payment models in order to meet the needs of a surging patient population, as Medicare funds are limited. Nevertheless, overall SNF Medicare patient days are projected to grow with increasing Medicare enrollment. Sophisticated, Value-Driven SNF Operators Will Thrive Shifting payment systems will incentivize patient outcomes and cost efficiency Demographic trends and increasingly selective networks will provide volume

Goals of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS)
CMS Quality Strategy developed to align with the three broad aims of DHHS National Quality Strategy:
Better care
Smarter spending
Healthier people, healthier communities
CMS Goal #1: 50% of Medicare payments tied to quality or value through alternative payment models (ACO’s and bundling programs) by end of 2018 CMS Goal #2: 90% of Medicare payments tied to quality or value through alternative payment models or value-based purchasing by end of 2018

Types of Alternative Payment Models and Bundling Programs to Date
Medicare Advantage (MA)
Commenced in 2006 as Medicare Part C benefit Plans include HMO’s and PPO’s Replaces traditional Medicare FFS for Part A and B services Medicare beneficiaries can enroll voluntarily Plans bill Medicare for A and B services based on beneficiary risk assessment; bill beneficiaries for out-of-pocket costs or additional coverage options
Accountable Care Organizations (ACO’s) Authorized by 2010 Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) Networks of doctors, hospitals, and other providers responsible for coordinating care for large groups of Medicare beneficiaries (min. 5,000) Replace traditional Medicare FFS for Part A and B services Unlike MA plans, must meet quality standards to realize savings, and beneficiaries can choose out-of-network providers SNF Industry and Evolving Revenue Models, August, 2016
7
Types of Alternative Payment Models and Bundling Programs to Date
Value-Based Purchasing (VBP) Authorized by Protecting Access to Medicare Act of 2014 (PAMA) Commencing October 2018 Traditional Medicare FFS discounted by 2% SNF’s can earn back some or all of discount based on ranking of rehospitalization rate for prior calendar year Only 50% to 70% of total discount will be returned to SNF’s, resulting in overall savings to Medicare

Bundling Programs
Comprehensive Care for Joint Replacement (CJR) CJR 1: 5-year pilot bundling program commenced 4/1/16 and runs through 2020, covering hip or knee joint replacements CJR 2: 5-year bundling program to commence 7/1/17 and run through 2021, covering surgical hip or femur fracture treatment Provides episodic payments (capitation) for hospitalization and post-acute care (PAC) for 90 days’ post-discharge Mandatory participation by 800 hospitals in 67 MSA’s (covering 25% of nation’s population) PAC for hip/knee joint replacements and for surgical hip/femur fracture treatment represents 7% and 6%, resp., of SNF Medicare revenue nationally

Bundling Programs
Cardiac Bundle 5-year bundling program to commence 7/1/17 and run through 2021, covering heart attacks and bypass surgeries Provides episodic payments (capitation) for hospitalization and PAC for 90 days’ post-discharge Mandatory participation by hospitals in 98 MSA’s to be selected randomly PAC for heart attacks and bypass surgeries represents 2% of SNF Medicare revenue nationally
SNF Industry and Evolving Revenue Models, August, 2016
10
Bundling Programs (cont’d)
Bundled Payments for Care Improvement (BPCI) 3-year pilot program now in year 3; just extended by CMS for 2 years to allow for better evaluation of effectiveness in improving care and reducing costs Voluntary participation by over 1,500 providers to date (hospitals, physicians, SNF’s, and other PAC providers), including 5% of SNF’s nationally Provides episodic payments under varying bundling models for up to 48 diagnostic conditions Other Payment Concepts: In March 2016 MedPAC recommended to Congress a unified PAC PPS system to replace FFS system AHCA advocating legislation for similar SNF-bundled PAC payment system, currently under review by the CBO

Keys to SNF Success: Patient Satisfaction
Best single measure of quality of care and services Key element of CMS star ratings of hospitals Harvard study (JAMA, April 2016): strong positive correlation between hospital patient experience and hospital patient outcomes Opportunity to cast SNF’s in positive light vs. negative perception from compliance surveys For hospital discharges to SNF’s, patient choice trumps network preference Omega to commence CoreQ satisfaction surveys of facilities

Keys to SNF Success: Patient Outcomes
Notable New CMS Quality Measures Effective April 2016:
Rehospitalization Rate (all-cause, 30-day, risk-adjusted)
National average currently 21.1%; estimated target at three points below average for full return of Value-Based Purchasing discount that commences October 2018
Joint replacement episode cost doubles with rehospitalization
Discharge rate to the community – reflects improved condition from SNF treatment
Functional ADL improvement during SNF stay
SNF Industry and Evolving Revenue Models, August, 2016
15
Keys to SNF Success: Patient Outcomes (cont’d)
Majority of CMS Quality Measures can be Misleading:
Limited to issues of compliance and patient incidents, rather than outcomes
Do not account for patient conditions upon admission
Quality Measure ratings to date can provide misleading results based on characteristics of patients SNF’s choose to admit
New Quality Measures (rehospitalization, discharge to community, functional improvement) represent better indicators of SNF outcomes
SNF Industry and Evolving Revenue Models, August, 2016
16
Keys to SNF Success: Patient Outcomes (cont’d)
Star Ratings Can Be Misleading:
Do not denote quality of care, just degree of regulatory compliance or rate of adverse incidents
Nevertheless, ratings used in establishing some networks and for 3-day stay waiver under CJR and cardiac bundles
Examples:
“Perfect” survey yields a 5-star Health Inspection rating but does not address quality of care in meeting patient needs
Overstaffed facility can achieve a 5-star Staffing rating but could be incurring excessive operating costs and operating inefficiently
A facility choosing to treat high-acuity patients with complex nursing issues could yield a 1-star Quality Measure rating but could be providing good quality of care
SNF Industry and Evolving Revenue Models, August, 2016
17
Keys to SNF Success: Cost Efficiency
Continued necessity given revenue limitations from government funding sources and move toward episodic payment models
Eventual return to expanded group and concurrent therapy protocols with episodic models
Improved care coordination to reduce episodic costs
SNF Industry and Evolving Revenue Models, August, 2016
18
Keys to SNF Success: Coordination of Care
Patient medical records – shared electronically with other providers (hospitals, doctors, home health agencies, etc.) to facilitate efficient care delivery
Care pathways – treatment protocols (evidence-based practices, telehealth, patient education, etc.) developed in consultation with other providers
Discharge follow-up – patient progress monitored periodically to reduce risk of rehospitalization
Medicare hospital/PAC networking will provide census opportunities for top SNF performers in each market – potential narrowing of SNF discharge partners by hospitals

Growth in Post-Acute Usage, By Age Cohort Discharges to Post-Acute Care (PAC) are expected to increase by 64% in the next 20 years, fueled by the 75-84 and 85+ age cohorts. If SNFs continue to receive 48% of PAC discharges and average length of stay remains constant, current SNF bed supply will be insufficient to meet demand in less than 10 years, likely requiring the expansion of both SNF supply and home health PAC services.

Medicaid Considerations
Medicaid will remain an important funding source for the majority of SNF long-stay residents. Can Medicaid eligibility reform create future funding stability and enhance long-term care insurance as an important SNF payer source?
