Clinical and Health Workforce Implications of Improving Population Health Annual Research Meeting June 25, 2017 Tim Dall, tim.dall@ihsmarkit.com Will Iacobucci Ritashree Chakrabarti Frank Chen Terry West
2 Research Question • How will improvements in population health affect aggregate demand for health care services and providers? > Will demand decline because people are healthier thus requiring fewer services in hospitals or other settings? > Will demand increase because people live longer?
3 Population Health Improvement Scenario Modeled • Modeling assumptions > Sustained 5% body weight loss for overweight and obese adults > Improved blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood glucose levels for adults with elevated levels – 34.42 mg/dL (CI, 22.04-46.40) reduce total blood cholesterol 1 – 14.5 mm Hg reduction in systolic blood pressure by and 10.7 mm Hg reduction diastolic blood pressure 2 – 1 percentage point annual reduction in hemoglobin A1c until diabetes control reached at 7.5% 3 > Smoking cessation • Hypothetical scenario covers portion of population health/preventive care goals 1 Taylor et al.

4 Healthcare Simulation Model • Four integrated components: demand, supply, disease, expenditures • Supports work with governments, associations, hospital systems, health plans • National, state, and local projections incorporating population health risk factors • Microsimulation: individuals are the unit of analysis Disease Healthcare Publications Using The Model Prevention Demand Microsimulation Microsimulation Model (DPMM) Model (HDMM) Healthcare Simulation Model Health Workforce Medical Supply Model Expenditure (HWSM) Model (MEM)
5 The DPMM is designed to simulate disease onset and economic outcomes under disease prevention/health promotion scenarios MODEL CHARACTERISTICS • Microsimulation model: individual people are modeled • Markov approach: current characteristics and status used to predict next year’s status • Monte Carlo simulation: each person is modeled multiple times, and outcomes can differ each time • Prediction equations come from published clinical trials and observational studies, and original empirical analysis PROJECTION HORIZON • Annual projections until the end of the projection horizon or death (have modeled lifetime,10- and 20- year projections) PERSPECTIVE • Can be societal, health-system, employer, individual/household, or payer OUTCOMES • Disease incidence/prevalence, medical expenditures, mortality, economic outcomes (employment, productivity, earnings, taxes, social security), and quality adjusted life years 6
6 The Disease Prevention Microsimulation Model was developed to answer the following questions • For each person in a given population and over a specified period of time: Starting health profile > What is the likelihood and timing of disease onset and severity? > How will health affect: Outcomes Change in – Health care use? • Disease incidence health risk • Medical costs factors • Productivity – Medical expenditures? • Quality of life • Mortality – Employment and productivity? – Quality of life? – Mortality? Change in disease health • If an intervention changes one states or more health risk factors, how will this affect the above questions?

10 Population Health Improvement • National outcomes cumulative 2015 to 2030 > 10.2 million fewer people with heart disease > 3.2 million fewer strokes > 3 million fewer heart attacks > Reduced incidence of cancer and other diseases, e.g., – 2.7 million fewer cases of prostate cancer – 460,000 fewer cases of thyroid cancer – But, more cases of ovarian cancer, stomach cancer, Alzheimer, osteoporosis and other conditions associated with an older, living population • Initially, improved population health means fewer hospitalizations and less demand for care • National, per capita utilization declines by 1-2%
