Management, Current Financial Standing,
Corporate Achievements of Note. In
particular, the Claims Management section
includes trend data (with comparisons to past
benchmark data) for closed and asserted cases
--for several KPIs, including Closed-With-
Payment; %High-Severity, Payment->$1M.
Data pulled/submitted independently by
Patient Safety, Finance, Claims --collected and
organized by Communications. Some
disagreement between numbers from different
sources. Some philosophical disagreement
about how meaningful it is to report quarterly
numbers and how they should be
projected/interpreted.
Address issues in "Current State." Define
whole-brain consensus spec with
definitions and single source of data
(along with underlying data structures
and data governance).

Client
Institution
Report
Client Patient Safety leadership, along with
data analyst, and Patient Safety Director, meet
with Quality/Safety leadership for each insured
institution 2x/year (~ 20 meetings each time).
The purpose of the meeting is to inform the
institution about trends in their claims data,
highlight any emerging risks or things the
institution "needs to know." And, to align the
presentation with Experience Adjustments
(Spring) and present topics of interest to the
institution (e.g. HIT Risk or Primary Care Risk).
In Spring, data analyst produces "standard"
claims summary Excel book, which is reviewed
with the institution contact. Areas of
interest/focus are identified; further data
queries and analysis done iteratively until data
is presented. In addition, PT Safety Director
reads/reviews specific claim summaries and is
prepared to talk about them. Sometimes, a
Claims Rep presents, too. If there is a specific
topic of interest, data/slides are prepared for
that topic, as well. "Boutique" institutions may
get review of overall Client data or customized
presentations.
In 2016, there will be 2 meetings per
institution. The Spring meeting will
involve both Patient Safety and Finance
and include review of claims data, as
well as Experience Adjustment. Fall
meeting will be more topical. A goal is
to reduce amount of customized work.
Q: Involvement of Claims Department?
Q: How to handle boutique institutions?
An automation opportunity is initial data
pull/reporting book (for each
institution).
