What are the PCMH joint principles?
• Patient has an ongoing relationship with a personal physician
― Personal physician leads a team of individuals that takes
responsibility for the ongoing care of patients
― Personal physician is responsible for providing for all the
patient’s health care needs or arranging care with other
qualified professionals
• Care is coordinated across health care system
• Quality and safety are hallmarks of the medical home
• Enhanced access to care is available through systems such as open
scheduling, expanded hours and new options for communication
• Payment recognizes the added value provided to patients who
have a patient-centered medical home
6
Expected benefits to health care consumers
• Improved health outcomes
• Reduced hospitalizations and ambulatory care
― Includes primary and readmissions
― Includes sensitive specialty/facility and other
costs
• Improved transition of care
• Shared decision-making
• Increased engagement in preventive health and
wellness

Patient receiving an evidence based treatment plan
Patient receiving a non-evidence based treatment plan
•
Our study showed a 43% relative improvement in adherence to evidence based treatment selection.
•
Peer-reviewed, published evidence-based treatment options, sourced from leading oncology guideline
bodies such as the American Society of Clinical Oncology and the National Comprehensive Cancer Network,
were selected for 25 more patients for every 100 cancer patients in our study.

Adherence to evidence-based medicine, by cancer type
Results exceeding our expectations
Across the board, our hypothesis was confirmed relative to increased adherence to EBM
Baseline adherence data on more than 200 patients was pulled from chart review of 5 practices for
the 6 month period prior to the start of our pilot.
We compared our study group of 103 patients against this baseline data, examining changes in
evidence-based adherence. In total, the absolute increase was 25%, a 43% relative increase.

Via OncologyTM Pathways’
Treatment Plan
• Auto-generated for both onand off-Pathways decisions
• Contains state/stage of Dx,
treatment details, risks,
monitoring plan, etc.
• Can be edited, printed and
saved within Pathways
• Contents can be securely sent
real time to EMR, practice staff
and payers
• Customizable by practice
30
Via OncologyTM Pathways’
Treatment Plan Summary
• Auto-generated at end of Tx
– State/stage of disease
– Actual treatment delivered
• Can be edited, printed and
saved within Pathways
• Pre-populated with
Survivorship Pathways
(includes Surveillance Plan)
• Ability to display:
– Response, reason for stopping
– Actual toxicities and
hospitalizations
• Customizable by practice
31
Quality reporting: clinical process
measures
• Adherence to evidence-based treatment guidelines
(including treatment exceeding lines of therapy and
documentation of off-Pathways reasons)
• Cancer staging
• Performance status
• Pain assessment
• End-of-life metrics (ACP documentation, hospice
enrollment, hospice length of stay)
• Patient satisfaction
32
Quality reporting: financial measures
These measures form the basis for the shared savings
calculation:
• ER visits (and costs)
• Hospitalization rate (and costs)
• Chemotherapy costs

Our analytics process
1. Identify eligible patients by TIN/state or ZIP code
2. Initial ICD-9 with initial J code
3. “Group” claims using Aetna standard
methodologies (cost categories)
4. Standardized query: opportunity to change single
