State Innovation Models: Theory of Action

Hypothesis to be tested: New service delivery and payment
models will be more effective and produce better outcomes
when they are implemented as part of a broad-based, Governor-
led, statewide initiative that brings together multiple payers and
stakeholders -- and uses the levers of state government to effect
change

States can be strong partners in transforming health care because they:
• Pay for a large percentage of health care services
• Have broad regulatory powers over health care providers and payers
• Regulate public health, social service, and educational services
• Can convene multiple parties
• Are closer to the actual delivery of care
• Can integrate state health information exchange infrastructure and
  capabilities to support accountable care

                                                                          3
A reformed delivery system will support and reward
   those who improve the health of populations

Definitions for Models

                    Two Key Concepts

                    Comprehensive approach to transforming the health system of
                    a state. The State Health Care Innovation Plan includes the
State Health Care   state’s vision and strategies to transform its payment and
Innovation Plan     service delivery system that will improve the quality of care
                    and lower costs through continuous improvement.


                    Refers to specific delivery system designs, such as accountable
Payment and         care organizations, integrated care systems, or medical homes that
Service delivery    are supported by aligned payment methods that reward value.
Model               These models will be described in a State Health Care Innovation
                    Plan.



                                                                                         5
How to Present a Compelling Proposal

1. Provide the case for State Health Care System Transformation
   – Establish a rationale for redesigning the delivery system and moving to a value-
     based payment system which incentivizes improved health outcomes
   – Include multiple payers in the model design planning effort
2. Provide evidence that the collaborative planning process will supported with state
   level performance data and information.
   – Describe how the planning effort will be supported by cost, quality, population
      data collection and health system performance information
   – Describe the specific data resources that are going available to support the
      model design work
3. Present the state’s strategy for engaging the key stakeholders
   – Describe the strategies or approach that will be used to engage various
     stakeholders
   – Present how the state will achieve provider, payer, and other stakeholder buy-in
     for the State Health Innovation Plan

                                                                                        6

The purpose of the
    State Health Care Innovation Plan is to…

• Align all of the stakeholders around a common approach
  and set of model designs
• Provide the framework for bringing all of the state’s
  resources -health care and public health programs,
  health insurance coverage, social, educational, and
  community based services -- into the delivery system re-
  design process
• Include specific multi-payer models that the state
  proposes to test
• Engage communities and citizens in improving the state’s
  health system

  payment based on volume and toward payment based
  on outcomes
• Developing innovative approaches to improve the
  effectiveness, efficiency and appropriate mix of the
  health care work force
• Aligning state regulatory authorities to reinforce accountable
  care and delivery system transformation or developing
  alternative approaches to certificate of need programs
                                                                   11

  activities with broader health system transformation efforts;
• Integrating the financing and delivery of public health services
  and community prevention strategies with health system
  redesign models;
