Dear «Title» «Surname»

PROFESSIONAL RELATIVITIES STUDYConsensus Group Alignment Process

I am writing to you in your capacity as Consensus Group (CG) Co-ordinator/Advisory Panel onProfessional Relativities in Medical Services (APPRMS) member for «Specialty» about theurgent need to have ranking and rating data confirmed by all consensus groups so that thealignment stage of the Professional Relativities Study (PRS) can commence.

Ranking and Rating dataYou will recall that the NCCH sent a letter to all consensus group members dated 6.7.99requesting that ranking and rating data are confirmed with the NCCH by 31.8.99. In order toprogress the study, it is critical that your group send the ranking and rating data (includingconsultation items) to the NCCH as soon as possible (at the latest by 30.9.99). The data will needto be consistently ranked according to the study methods.

Some groups have forwarded their data and, if this is your group, please ignore this request.

Alignment ProcessThe alignment stage of the project is critical to the PRS. During this process, link items will beused to align the 23 specialty group rankings, time estimates and intensity ratings. The ultimategoal will be to have all groups consistently aligned on one relativity scale, whilst endeavouring toretain the within group rankings developed by Consensus Groups.

The NCCH is now planning meetings for the alignment process. The Board has agreed that thisprocess will involve the following:

? Representation from each CG (1 representative) , from the APPRMS (where different fromthe CG) and representation from the Consensus Group on Attendance Items (CGAI).

? Nomination of one person from each CG specialty group, ideally this would be the Co-ordinator. If this is not possible, a ‘shared’ arrangement could be put forward. Please bear inmind the obvious learning curve each nominee will experience.

Page 3: PRS Resource Material M - Department of Health · RESOURCE MATERIAL M Alignment meeting papers: ... PRS - National Centre ... (Project Manager) Mr George Rennie (Statistician) Apologies

? Representative(s) may need to be available for between 4-6 meetings between October andearly December 1999 in Sydney, Melbourne or Brisbane. This is to ensure that you arepresent whenever your groups’ rankings and ratings are discussed. The final meeting willinclude representation from all specialty groups. The NCCH is endeavouring to reduce thenumber of meetings by using other methods of communication (e.g. via correspondence)where feasible.

? Meetings will be scheduled for Thursdays and Fridays in morning and afternoon sessionswith Saturday meetings scheduled for the end stages of the process. We expect the meetingsto last no longer than 2-3 hours.

? At least one month’s notice will be given for each meeting scheduled.? All CG ranking and rating data received must be consistent for procedure and consultation

items.? If the data is not received, the CGs may forfeit their involvement in the early stages of the

alignment process and will therefore be aligned at the end stage of the process.

Again it must be stressed how critical it is that the data is confirmed with the NCCH byThursday 30 September 1999.

A few groups are not scheduled to meet until the end of September. This has been taken intoconsideration when planing meetings so that these groups are not disadvantaged during thealignment process.

Could you please let us know your nominee representative(s), available days and time of day infirst and second preferences on the attached proposed schedule by either faxing (02 9351 9722) orphoning (02 9351 9720) the details to the NCCH. We will take into consideration yourpreferences when finalising the dates for the meetings schedule.

This letter has not been sent to all members of your consensus group, however, please feel free todistribute copies of this letter to your colleagues.

Yours sincerely

Rosemary RobertsDirector

Attachment 1 GLOSSARY OF TERMS AND PRS DEFINITIONS

ANAESTHETIC TIME Anaesthetic time begins when the anaesthetist begins to preparethe patient for anaesthesia care in the operating room or in anequivalent area and ends when the anaesthetist is no longer inpersonal attendance, that is, when the patient may be safelyplaced under the supervision of other personnel.

COGNITIVE SKILLCLINICAL JUDGEMENTCOMMUNICATION SKILLS

First component of intensity (PRS)Rated for “intra service” time (with an average taken for preand post service times). Where intra service time is zero, theintensity rate applies to the pre or post component of timewhich contains the bulk of the professional work.

CORE ITEM MBS items to be selected for development of RVU estimates.PRS core item criteria:? Good map to CPT? Good spread among rankings? Item frequency

CURRENT PROCEDURALTERMINOLOGY – CPT

System for coding physician services developed by theAmerican Medical Association to file claims with Medicare andother third-party payers; level 3 of the HCFA CommonProcedure Coding System (HCPCS)1

The CPT is a listing of descriptive terms and identifying codesfor reporting medical services and procedures performed byphysicians2

DIRECT TIME Face-to-face time with patient.

EXTRAPOLATION Projection from known results to unknown cases where theunknown cases lie outside the range of the known cases

FLOOR TIME ***(WARD TIME)

Time dedicated to a patient service within a hospital, nursinghome or other institution, covering time that the medicalpractitioner is present in the patient’s ward, interview/treatmentroom, or at the bedside with the patient.

PRS – Alignment Group Meeting

National Centre for Classification in Health 2

INDIRECT TIME Non face-to-face patient related time

INTERPOLATION Projection of known results to unknown cases where theunknown cases lie within the range of the known cases

INTENSITY The three components of intensity for the purpose of the PRSare:? cognitive skill, clinical judgement and communication skills? technical skill and physical effort? stress due to risk - risk to patient and/or difficulty of

procedure

Rated for “intra service” time (with an average taken forpre and post service times). Where intra service time is zero,the intensity rate applies to the pre or post component of timewhich contains the bulk of the professional work.

INTRA SERVICE TIME For procedures: time in which the service provider is in directcontact with the patient in the procedure room.? For most procedures this would be ‘skin to skin’ time ie.Opening to closing. Includes where positioning of the patientis an intrinsic part of the procedure eg lithotripsy, stereotacticprocedures.

For consultations: Face-to-face time with the patient(excluding pre-service time)

Hospital visits: time in the ward dedicated to the patient (ie thefloor time) which includes the time that the medical practitioneris present in the patient’s ward and at the bedside with thepatient.

LINKING SPECIALTIES Two approaches for data linking are possible:? same MBS items carried out by different specialties? linking different item numbers which are of equal professional work

PRS link item: same item reviewed by more than onespecialty.

MAPPING The term ‘mapping’ refers to the process of finding an‘equivalent’ code between two classifications enablinginterpretation of one classification to the other3

PRE-SERVICE TIME Time taken to prepare for a specific service.

For procedures: includes dress, scrub and wait.

For consultations: time spent in preparation of specific serviceprior to face to face consultation. Hospital visits: time spent inpreparation of specific service before the ‘on the floor’ time.

POST SERVICE TIME For procedures: Closure or end of service to completion of normal“after care”. Includes Recovery, ICU, CCU andfollow-up visits included in the item.

For consultations: Time spent on specific service aftercessation of face-to-face contact. Hospital visits: time spent onspecific service after cessation of ‘on the floor’ time.

All times must involve the doctor in direct or indirectactivity with respect to the specific patient and item

RANKING Placing items in order eg 1-N

RATING Giving a score on a predetermined scale e.g. 0-10 or1-100

REGRESSION ANALYSIS Determination of the relationship between a dependent variableand a number of other variables (independent variables) bystatistical means

RELATIVE VALUE SCALE(U.S. DEFINITION)

An index of physicians’ services ranked according to “value”,with value defined according to the basis for the scale. In acharge-based relative value scale, services are ranked accordingto the average fee for the service or some other charge basis. Aresource-based relative value scale ranks services according tothe relative costs of the resources required to provide them. 2

RELATIVE VALUE UNIT The unit of measure for the professional work component in theRelative Value Study.

REMAINING ITEM Non-core item

RESOURCE BASEDRELATIVE VALUE SCALE(U.S. DEFINITION)

A relative value scale based on the resource costs of providingphysician services; adopted in OBRA 89 as the basis forphysician payment for Medicare Part B services effectiveJanuary 1, 1992. The relative value of each service is the sumof relative value units (RVUs) representing physician work,practice expense, and professional liability insurance (PLI)adjusted for each locality by a geographic adjustment factor andconverted into dollar payment amounts by a conversion factor2

TECHNICAL SKILLPHYSICAL EFFORT

Second component of intensity (PRS)Rated for “intra service” time (with an average taken forpre and post service times). Where intra service time is zero,The intensity rate applies to the pre or post component of timeWhich contains the bulk of the professional work.

TIME Total service time incorporates both patient related (face-to-face) and (non face-to-face) direct and indirect time.

TOTAL WORK Time + Intensity

STRESS DUE TO RISK Third component of intensity (PRS)Includes stress due to risk to patient and/or difficulty ofprocedure.Rated for “intra service” time (with an average taken forpre and post service times). Where intra service time is zero,the intensity rate applies to the pre or post component of timewhich contains the bulk of the professional work.

PRS Alignment Group Meeting

PRS - National Centre for Classification in Healthprs\Alignment Process\mtgs\Papers_Agenda\Meeting2

Background:

The main purpose of the Alignment Process is for Consensus Groups (CGs) to agree on time estimates and rank order of link items. In addition,alignment formula and rating transformations will need to be discussed to facilitate the alignment of the CGs data based on the agreed link items.Following this the CGs will need to agree on changes (if any) to the rank of items and these changes will be incorporated before the next alignmentmeeting.

This process correlates to Stage 5C of the PRS Method (refer to Appendix A, PRS Method Paper, October 1998, pg. A10) in ensuring that link itemsare ranked in the same order by different specialties. This will then allow for merging of the relativities developed by the groups during the CGprocess so that core items can be chosen to develop Relative Value Units (RVUs).

The Alignment Process:

(Within Session Process)

(Out of Session Process)

1. Agree on timeestimates for link

items

2. Adjust grouptime estimates

3. Agree on rankorder of link

items4. Confirm

adjustments onlink items

5. Discuss ratingstransformation andformula allignment

7. Agree on anychanges to

ranking

6. Alignranking and

ratings

Attachment 1 GLOSSARY OF TERMS AND PRS DEFINITIONS

ANAESTHETIC TIME Anaesthetic time begins when the anaesthetist begins to preparethe patient for anaesthesia care in the operating room or in anequivalent area and ends when the anaesthetist is no longer inpersonal attendance, that is, when the patient may be safelyplaced under the supervision of other personnel.

COGNITIVE SKILLCLINICAL JUDGEMENTCOMMUNICATION SKILLS

First component of intensity (PRS)Rated for “intra service” time (with an average taken for preand post service times). Where intra service time is zero, theintensity rate applies to the pre or post component of timewhich contains the bulk of the professional work.

CORE ITEM MBS items to be selected for development of RVU estimates.PRS core item criteria:? Good map to CPT? Good spread among rankings? Item frequency

CURRENT PROCEDURALTERMINOLOGY – CPT

System for coding physician services developed by theAmerican Medical Association to file claims with Medicare andother third-party payers; level 3 of the HCFA CommonProcedure Coding System (HCPCS)1

The CPT is a listing of descriptive terms and identifying codesfor reporting medical services and procedures performed byphysicians2

DIRECT TIME Face-to-face time with patient.

EXTRAPOLATION Projection from known results to unknown cases where theunknown cases lie outside the range of the known cases

FLOOR TIME ***(WARD TIME)

Time dedicated to a patient service within a hospital, nursinghome or other institution, covering time that the medicalpractitioner is present in the patient’s ward, interview/treatmentroom, or at the bedside with the patient.

PRS – Alignment Group Meeting

National Centre for Classification in Health 2

INDIRECT TIME Non face-to-face patient related time

INTERPOLATION Projection of known results to unknown cases where theunknown cases lie within the range of the known cases

INTENSITY The three components of intensity for the purpose of the PRSare:? cognitive skill, clinical judgement and communication skills? technical skill and physical effort? stress due to risk - risk to patient and/or difficulty of

procedure

Rated for “intra service” time (with an average taken forpre and post service times). Where intra service time is zero,the intensity rate applies to the pre or post component of timewhich contains the bulk of the professional work.

INTRA SERVICE TIME For procedures: time in which the service provider is in directcontact with the patient in the procedure room.? For most procedures this would be ‘skin to skin’ time ie.Opening to closing. Includes where positioning of the patientis an intrinsic part of the procedure eg lithotripsy, stereotacticprocedures.

For consultations: Face-to-face time with the patient(excluding pre-service time)

Hospital visits: time in the ward dedicated to the patient (ie thefloor time) which includes the time that the medical practitioneris present in the patient’s ward and at the bedside with thepatient.

LINKING SPECIALTIES Two approaches for data linking are possible:? same MBS items carried out by different specialties? linking different item numbers which are of equal professional work

PRS link item: same item reviewed by more than onespecialty.

MAPPING The term ‘mapping’ refers to the process of finding an‘equivalent’ code between two classifications enablinginterpretation of one classification to the other3

PRE-SERVICE TIME Time taken to prepare for a specific service.

For procedures: includes dress, scrub and wait.

For consultations: time spent in preparation of specific serviceprior to face to face consultation. Hospital visits: time spent inpreparation of specific service before the ‘on the floor’ time.

POST SERVICE TIME For procedures: Closure or end of service to completion of normal“after care”. Includes Recovery, ICU, CCU andfollow-up visits included in the item.

For consultations: Time spent on specific service aftercessation of face-to-face contact. Hospital visits: time spent onspecific service after cessation of ‘on the floor’ time.

All times must involve the doctor in direct or indirectactivity with respect to the specific patient and item

RANKING Placing items in order eg 1-N

RATING Giving a score on a predetermined scale e.g. 0-10 or1-100

REGRESSION ANALYSIS Determination of the relationship between a dependent variableand a number of other variables (independent variables) bystatistical means

RELATIVE VALUE SCALE(U.S. DEFINITION)

An index of physicians’ services ranked according to “value”,with value defined according to the basis for the scale. In acharge-based relative value scale, services are ranked accordingto the average fee for the service or some other charge basis. Aresource-based relative value scale ranks services according tothe relative costs of the resources required to provide them. 2

RELATIVE VALUE UNIT The unit of measure for the professional work component in theRelative Value Study.

REMAINING ITEM Non-core item

RESOURCE BASEDRELATIVE VALUE SCALE(U.S. DEFINITION)

A relative value scale based on the resource costs of providingphysician services; adopted in OBRA 89 as the basis forphysician payment for Medicare Part B services effectiveJanuary 1, 1992. The relative value of each service is the sumof relative value units (RVUs) representing physician work,practice expense, and professional liability insurance (PLI)adjusted for each locality by a geographic adjustment factor andconverted into dollar payment amounts by a conversion factor2

TECHNICAL SKILLPHYSICAL EFFORT

Second component of intensity (PRS)Rated for “intra service” time (with an average taken forpre and post service times). Where intra service time is zero,The intensity rate applies to the pre or post component of timeWhich contains the bulk of the professional work.

TIME Total service time incorporates both patient related (face-to-face) and (non face-to-face) direct and indirect time.

TOTAL WORK Time + Intensity

STRESS DUE TO RISK Third component of intensity (PRS)Includes stress due to risk to patient and/or difficulty ofprocedure.Rated for “intra service” time (with an average taken forpre and post service times). Where intra service time is zero,the intensity rate applies to the pre or post component of timewhich contains the bulk of the professional work.
