often wear multiple hats, faces an even greater challenge to keep up.

Volume to Value
▪ CAHs are currently reimbursed based on cost
▪ PPS hospitals are paid – OP - Fee for Service – IP - DRG payments
▪ PPS are feeling the change first
▪ CAHs are next to be affected
▪ Conditions of Participation reflect coming change
Cost Sharing▪High deductible plans
▪ Increased premiums
▪Higher co-pays
Kaiser Foundation Cost Sharing increased 230% since 2006
6 x faster than wage increases
Adjusting to ChangePast Behavior
▪ Increase rates to private insurers to compensate for lower reimbursement from government payers
▪ Didn’t worry about collecting co-pays and deductibles because the payment for service was high
Response
▪ Private insurers are narrowing networks and rolling out value based plans
HTH Iowa SHIP Kickoff 8/1/2016
For more Information, please contact: [email protected] 11
How do we respond?
First Reaction to decreased reimbursement:
▪ Administration cuts staff to decrease costs
▪ Hours, salaries and employees take the hit
▪ “Off with your heads!”
▪ Stress and fear take over
▪ Attitudes and morale are low (affecting patients)
▪ Creates another set of problems
Solution?
Don’t weaken the workforce;
Strengthen the Revenue Cycle!
