U.S. health reform was designed to increase access, reduce costs, and improve quality of care!

50  million  Americans  

 uninsured  

Access

Goals: ▪  Extend coverage ▪  Protect consumers ▪  Increase choice

2x  personal  consump4on  of  China  is  spent  on  healthcare  each  year  

Cost

Goals: ▪  Affordability ▪  Productivity ▪  Deficit reduction

100  thousand  Americans  die  each  year  due  to  

medical  errors  

Quality

Goals: ▪  Step change in

outcomes ▪  population health ▪  Liberate data

McKinsey Health Systems Institute 10

The ACA is designed to address each of these challenges!

Access ▪  Extends coverage through state Exchanges

▪  Expands federal health programs

▪  New consumer protections

▪  Purchasing subsidies

▪  Penalizes poor performance in hospitals

▪  Incentivizes wellness and prevention

▪  Funds Center for Innovation to investigate new approaches for better quality care

▪  Strengthens training around patient safety

Quality Care

Cost ▪  Streamlines administrative processes

▪  Cuts waste, fraud and overpayments

▪  Incentivizes bundled payments, CER and generics

The all-important CBO score!

Cost of the Affordable Care Act

$940 billion

Savings and new revenues resulting from

legislation

$1,059 billion

$119 billion reduction in the deficit*

* Now $230 billion

CBO estimates ACA reduces the long term trend by 25-50bps

McKinsey Health Systems Institute 12

Implementation is phased over several years!NOT EXHAUSTIVE

▪  Hospital readmission program

▪  Medicare Advantage cuts

▪  ACOs

▪  Administrative simplification

▪  CMS Innovation Center

▪  Patient Centered Outcomes Research

▪  Pharma fees/rebates

▪  Health Exchanges ▪  Subsidies and

mandate ▪  Medicaid expanded ▪  Hospital acquired

condition fee (2015) ▪  Bundled payments

2011 2012 2013 2014 2018 "Cadillac" tax

§  Dependent coverage extended to 26 §  $250 "doughnut hole" rebate for seniors §  Protections for people with pre-existing

§  Ban on lifetime/annual limits §  Increased free preventative

coverage §  More options for “high risk” people §  Tax credits to small business §  New commissions §  10% tanning tax

In response, hospitals are accelerating hiring of physicians!

McKinsey Health Systems Institute 16

However, extent to which these changes translate to desired improvement in cost, access and quality is uncertain!

Consolidation/integration of providers does not lead to higher prices as a result of greater market power 1 Linking prices to real benefits to ensure payment reflects underlying value 2

The speed and completeness of shifting away from fee-for-service payment models 3

Well functioning insurance markets and Exchanges 4

Liberation of high quality, timely data to enable providers to manage risk and support consumers markets 5
