Discussion
Agenda
5. Global challenges
Increasing demand
• Rise of long term conditions and multi-morbidity: physical and mental
• Ageing population
• Increasing system wide expectations: access, treatment, cure not care
Supply pressures
• Dependence on system
• Hospital and medic-centric care models
• Workforce – recruitment & retention, ageing, diversity and culture
• Fragmentation of care in health and to social care
• Crisis curve
Solution – Transforming what we buy and how we buy it:
• Person centred co-ordinated care – whole person approach to improve
outcomes and value
9. Similar Challenges
• On September 16, 2004, the Canadian government
announced $41 billion over the next 10 years of new federal
funding in support of the action plan on health.
• That Health Accord expired in 2014 and the federal
government did not negotiate funding leading up to 2015—
just measurement, accountability and best practices
• The funding is set—an increase of six percent in the first three
years, and a minimum of three percent in the remaining seven
years
• In 2015 new government---another shift, new thinking, new
demands for non-physician centric models, rural, aboriginal,
vulnerable service improvements and workforce aging…………
11. Resetting—Shift to Population Health
• New Models of Care—strategic methodology
• Population Shifts—aging, chronic disease, etc.
• Workforce Implications---existing versus future
• Shifting dynamics between patients and clinicians
• Self-care management
• Impact of Technology enabled care
• Workforce arrangements demand co-operation between very
different workforce groups
• Coordinator or ‘navigator’ roles become crucial in a complex
fragmented landscape
• Thinking outside the ‘box’ and keeping the welfare of the patient
at the forefront
• Learning from other jurisdictions--- NHS Long Term Conditions
Program/Simulation/Funding
13. The NHS England programme
Definitions
• Person not patient
• Long Term Conditions not chronic disease
• Whole person not separation of physical,
mental, emotional and social needs
• Co-ordinated care not integrated care
14. Tackling the priorities in the NHS
• Empowering patients and informal carers to be full partners in
care
• Whole person focus
• Life course approach to care needs
• Strengthening Primary and Community Care
• Older people with increasingly complex needs including frailty
• New care models moving away from purely medical, hospital-
centric focus
• Strengthen key enablers – IT, Workforce, Technology
• Need for a new purchaser/provider/funding model
16. Outcomes and benefits
• More activated patients have 8% lower costs in the base year
and 21% lower costs in the following year than less activated
patients
• Health coaching can yield a 63% cost saving from reduced
clinical time, giving a potential annual saving of £12,438 per FTE
from a training cost of £400
• Coaching and care co-ordination has shown to reduce
emergency admissions by 24%
• Improved medication adherence improves outcomes and yields
efficiencies, for instance in 6000 adults in the UK with Cystic
Fibrosis, could save more than £100 million over 5-years
• Between 20% and 30% of hospital admissions in over 85’s
could be prevented by proactive case finding, frailty assessment,
care planning and use of services outside of hospital
17. Long Term Conditions Year of Care Commissioning
Programme
• Engagement and commitment across the system
• Patients, Clinicians, Managers, Senior leaders
• Joint vision and narrative
• Shared benefits
• Whole Population Analysis
• Understanding the population
• Risk profiling and segmentation
• Patient & Service Selection
• Planning for Change
• Simulation Modelling
• Workforce
• Capitated Budget
• Delivery Models
• Service redesign
• Contracting and performance monitoring
18. National Population Analysis
Prevalence:
– There are 16 million with one LTC, 10 million with two
LTCs, 1 million people in England with frailty, and 0.5
million approaching end of life
Quality of life:
– The larger the number of co-morbidities a patient has
the lower their quality of life
– Increasing evidence of over-treatment and harm
– Social isolation/loneliness a risk factor for mortality in
over 75s
19. National Population Analysis
Impact on the health system:
– The average person with a LTC in the UK spends less
than 4 hours a year with a health professional
– Research has shown that 33% of all GP consultations
are now with people with multi-morbidity
– The number of days in a hospital bed increases strongly
with age: those under 40 account for 1 million
emergency bed days and those over 85 account for over
7 million emergency bed days
– Three-fold increase in health costs across all care
sectors due to frailty
– 1300 people die each day and 25% of all hospital beds
are occupied by somebody who is dying
24. Delivery Models
The service models being developed by our sites are essentially similar
but differ to match local conditions.
Similarities include:
• Single point of access
• Care planning and shared care record
• Supported self management
• Care co-ordination
• Community multi-disciplinary team based around primary care,
• Wider neighbourhood support including specialist practitioners,
therapists
• Recovery, Rehabilitation and Reablement “services”
• Care navigators and voluntary sector as a key enabler.
Differences include:
• Whole population or selected cohorts
• Formation of new organisations
• New delivery models within and across existing organisations

future uncertainties: Enables the linking
of strategy to service delivery
While Long-Range Forecasts…
Extrapolate the impact of known trends
and assumptions
Are important for one year plans
Are unable to capture the potential impact
of key events (e.g., technology
breakthrough, capacity and demand
changes, government regulatory changes)
that could significantly change the system
environment for delivery services
Unable to capture ‘true costs’ for
delivering health and social care services
Scenarios…
Provide a plausible range of future
outcomes and help identify the key
"trigger" factors/events that can
significantly alter the future
Take a long view over time, usually 5-10-
20 years
Helps to question consensus and "past to
future“ linear thinking

Non-Funded Maternity Care Services to Immigrant & Refugee Women
Business Challenge
In 2011, the client wished to begin laying the groundwork for a strategic transformation in response to potential
reforms to providing care to immigrant women who had were without ‘papers’ and had no status, and no care
cards or waiting for deportation,
Due to the inherent uncertainty around reform and future developments to the change in immigrant status and
the ‘high risk pregnancy’ population that the organization served, the client required a scenario planning
approach that allowed for different strategic directions given various future scenarios
The key objective for Project 2011 was to provide a longer-term vision of the costs and possible strategic
options
Project Approach
Developed a long-term vision of partnerships
between downtown hospitals for delivering
immigrant and refugee care services
Provided an assessment of new capabilities
compared to future capabilities needed
Developed a portfolio of strategic options for
responding to changing federal government
conditions over the next decade through stakeholder
workshops
Created a critical decision path for choosing among
the strategic options
Client Benefits
Increased strategic planning to address
funding issues, loss revenue, physician
collaboration
Comprehensive understanding of immigrant
and refugee needs served for future service
delivery development
Path to transformation that accounts for and
adjusts to changing federal government
regulations, provincial government, and local
provider/funder conditions
Provincial government committed funding for
future immigrant and refugee care

Linking Food Banks to Chronic Disease
Business Challenge
Project Approach
Activity from population projections, age-related,
immigration and ethnic factors, income, and
prevalence based data for chronic diseases are all
factors shown to influence demand. Thus, a review
was conducted of the global, national, provincial and
local literature using search terms such food
insecurity, food distribution, homelessness and
poverty, housing affordability, income and food bank
users.
,Several scenarios developed and socialized with
providers and community stakeholders
Client Benefits
A demonstration of the scenario tool (Scenario
Generator) was given to the project team
highlighting the economic benefits of
implementing a Nurse Practitioner Led Clinic.
Additionally, a power point presentation
Identification of partnerships and possible
marketing solutions to key stakeholders and
potential community and corporate partners.
• Increased awareness of people using Food Banks and the link between health behaviours and health outcomes,
Moreover, from a local perspective the report highlights that health behaviours and health outcomes, regarding mental
illness, addictions, obesity, diabetes, smoking and cardiovascular disease, oral care.
• A multi-organization partnership explored the link between food banks and chronic disease and could a new way of
delivering services to this population group change behaviours and improve outcomes.
• Specifically if a change to access to primary care health services could show a reduction in emergency room visits,
hospitalization, a decrease in obesity and improved self care management for diabetes.

Improving Outcomes for Children & Youth Mental Health Services
Business Challenge
To increase access to children, youth and their families to mental health and addiction services across SW Ontario.
Evaluate the duplication of resources, activities and eliminate and/or reduce the fragmentation and hand-offs between
providers to ensure continuity of services for families accessing mental health services.
Identify opportunities for new models of care and partnerships
Explore opportunities for leveraging resources and workforce optimization
Additionally, the system wide costs were difficult to measure given the disparate data systems, multiple organizations,
vast array of providers and funding streams (e.g. health, justice, education, social services, housing)
Project Approach
Multi-provider (30 CYMH agencies) + 2100 front line
staff + 9 Children Aid Societies, + 7 inpatient
psychiatric hospitals/units + 5 emergency
departments
Technology enabled collaboration (Think Tank) used
to collect front line staff challenges, family
experiences and prioritization of challenges
Scenario planning explored and implemented to
drive mind-set shifts to explore resetting their model
of care
Used SG to test new approaches and improvements
Client Benefits
Increased awareness for the need to rethink
partnerships, services and delivery
mechanisms
Five agencies amalgamated to deliver
centralized services leveraging resources,
funding and workforce
System-wide standardized approach to
assessments across government agencies
(e.g. health, social services, education and
