9Definition of Value-Based Design
- Value-based design is a health management process
that - 1 Uses data to
- 2 Invest in incentives that
- 3 Change behaviors to
- 4 Reduce financial and health risk (ROI)
10Value Based Design is a Totally Integrated program
- The program will include the following suite of
designs - Enhanced communication to reach the member
- Use of a health portal for 24/7
- Wellness programs that can be measured
- Cafeteria messaging
- Lower administrative barriers
- Lower financial barriers for physician office
visits , labs and Rx - Focus care management programs focused on chronic
conditions
11Data Drives Benefits Design
- Capture as much data as possible including
medical/Rx, disability and workers compensation - Look at what are the underlying cost drivers of
chronic conditions such as diabetes or asthma - Review what barriers exist to prohibit access to
care - Financials
- Administrative
- Driving distances to providers and hours of
providers
12Data Drives Benefits Designs-Barrier-Cannot Get
Data- Possible Solutions
- Assume your population chronic conditions are
similar to the health plans population - Ask for what were the top 5 highest chronic
conditions 5 years prior vs. most recent year - Pull the same data from the Disability and
Workers Compensation carrier - Create the graph of rising health care costs and
profit over the next 10 years - Create the solutions to offset the medical
inflation

16Managed Competition-Cost Focus
- The Concept
- Access to a broad array of managed care plans
- Employee cost based on quality
- The Issues
- Annual Plan Design Changes
- Entry/Exit of HMOs
- Network Geographic Changes
- Fluctuating Employee Contributions
- Manage resource consumption through
deductibles/co pays/coinsurance - Focus on high cost cases
- Strategic Issues
- HMO Centric
- Overemphasis of Financials
- Reactive not Proactive

19Benefits Redesign Based on Predictive
Modeling-This can be applied to your population
- Finding
- Individuals with no exposure to health care
system (zero claims) are at high risk of becoming
high cost claimants within 3 years. - Response
- Engage people in health care system
- Free or limited cost of preventive/screening
services - First dollar coverage for routine medical care
- Eliminate front-end deductibles
- Robust EAP services
20Benefits Redesign Based on Predictive
Modeling-This can be applied to your population
- Finding
- Individuals with chronic conditions and low
medication compliance rates have high probability
of moving to a higher cost tier within one year - Asthma
- More than 1 fill of Albuterol in a 30 day period
- Diabetes
- Less than 9 30-day fills in a 12 month period
- Hypertension
- Less than 9 30-day fills in a 12 month period

- Other investments
26Evidence of Success in Value-based Designs
- The Shift is Sustainable and Scalable
27What weve learned-What are the key questions
- How do I start?
- Anywhere but use the principles of FIT-Design
- How do I create the business case for investing?
- Show the Do nothing strategy
- How do I make it work?
- Partner with your key internal/external teams
