Health Care Trends 2012 Wellness, prevention, consumer choice play greater roles By Angelo Gentile
A
s a consumer of health care services in 2012, you can expect to fi nd employers, insurers and health care providers offering more health and wellness programs than ever before to encourage better health and prevention. Also, get ready: you will likely be asked this year to become a savvier consumer as the way health insurance is offered and sold changes.
Wellness, Awareness, Prevention “We are entering a new era in health care, one which emphasizes health as much as care,” Dr. Courtney Baechler, medical director of the Penny George Institute for Health and Healing, a part of Allina Health, said in a recent news release. She was referring to the Neighborhood Health Connection program that Allina recently launched in several of the neighborhoods the Minneapolis-based health system serves. “We believe that we can truly help people
to take control of their health by partnering with them at the neighborhood level.” This new program, and Baechler’s comment about a new era in health care, illustrate how health and wellness and preventing chronic illnesses are getting emphasized more than ever as health insurance organizations, in response to new federal legislation, begin to transfer the cost of reimbursement to a system that’s based more on keeping people healthy. In the not-too-distant past—the “old era” of health care—providers (clinics, hospitals, etc.) were paid for fi xing sick people. “Health insurance organizations are wanting to transfer the cost risk to provider organizations—doctors, hospitals—so now those entities have greater incentives to keep people healthy and out of expensive services such as hospitals and ERs,” says Dr. Bob Wiegand, executive vice president, clinic and services, Allina Health. This trend will gain momentum in the next few years, Wiegand says, so look for health delivery systems to start “beefi ng up health and wellness promotion” and businesses—employer groups—to do the same, as they all move toward “results-oriented wellness programs,” Wiegand says. For instance, there could come a time, soon, in which your individual cholesterol levels, or blood pressure, body composition, or smoking status, could influence the health insurance premium you pay as an employee.
Design your own benefits package You’ll need to become a savvier health care consumer to navigate the other major trend this year in health care. It is one, says Wiegand, that’s likely to emerge in the next several months as companies offer open enrollment periods for insurance programs. In the past, your employer usually offered three or four options for health care insurance. Now, companies will make available a specific amount of money for employees and then you get to design a plan that fits your needs best. Maybe you would choose a lower or higher deductible, a health-savings account, a broader choice of doctors or a narrower network. “As costs go up, the options are driven by the employer,” explains Wiegand. So, for example, he says, “an employer might say ‘we’ll contribute what we think we can afford, then you [the employee] decide what risk or choice or choice limitations you want to tolerate.’” Twin Cities-based Medica already has a program of this type, called My Plan. The company’s website describes it as “a defi ned contribution benefits program. So instead of buying one health plan for all employees, your employer is making available a ‘defi ned’ amount of money in a My Plan account that you use to purchase a health plan that fits your own individual needs. My Plan was created specifically to do just that–give you a plan that fits you.”

Will these types of plans work? It’s probably too soon to tell. As Wiegand says, “if the tools are well-designed for employees,” then they probably will be accepted. “Otherwise, employees may be overwhelmed by all the choices.” Either way, Wiegand says, this new approach is defi nitely the “biggest change” that’s coming to our health care market locally.

Choosing the right doctor Consider many factors when making this important decision By Kristin Holtz
A
good doctor-patient relationship is one of the best things you can do for your health.
But selecting a doctor isn’t as easy as just picking one from the phone book. Personalities, convenience, styles, values–a lot goes into the decision of who will care for you and your family. Choosing a doctor is all about finding one with whom you’re comfortable and willing to share just about anything, says Dr. Sandra Morris, a family practitioner at Allina Medical Clinic-Crossroads Dean Lakes in Shakopee. “It’s important to have that sense of being comfortable with your provider. If you’re not, you might not divulge information we need to know.” Elizabeth Kennedy, a family medicine doctor at Ridgeview Excelsior Clinic,
said it’s important patients clarify their own expectations and priorities when considering doctors. These issues could include questions such as:
Does the doctor’s gender matter?
Do have specific medical needs, such as heart disease or diabetes, that require particular care? Do you prefer an authoritative doctor or one with a more collaborative approach? Do you want an MD or are you open to physician assistants or nurse practitioners? Ridgeview Medical Center holds provider “meet and greets” where potential patients can sit down with primary care doctors for free 15-minute “interviews” to learn about a doctor’s style and practice.
Questions to ask potential doctors What type of medicine do you practice? Do you have any specialties? What hospital do you admit
patients to?
When I call, will I speak
directly to you? How quickly do you return messages? Do you answer e-mail? Do you frequently refer
care to specialists or prefer to manage most care by yourself?
Other factors to consider: Insurance: Does the doctor’s clinic accept your insurance? Will
you be responsible for co-pays? Scheduling: How long is the typical wait for scheduling? Are same-day appointments available? Hours: What are the clinic’s hours? Do they provide after-hours care? Complete care: Does the clinic provide lab work and X-rays on campus? Atmosphere: Is the clinic staff friendly and helpful? Location: Is the clinic (and admitting hospital) close to your home or office?
“That [meeting] can really give the best sense of whether that relationship will be a good fit,” Kennedy says.
Getting to know an MD Most providers have online bios that can help patients get a more complete picture of a doctor, Kennedy says. Many of her new patients come to her already familiar with her personal info, specialties and philosophy.
Dr. Elizabeth Kennedy
The Internet also offers resources to research a doctor’s licensure Dr. Sandra Morris and disciplinary history. More online sites, such as HealthGrades.com or RateMDs.com, are popping up for patients to review doctors. However, doctors warn online reviews can be misleading since they typically are a small sample. Insurance plans have also started to develop physician rating systems. However, they are usually based on statistical data not personal reviews, Morris notes. Word of mouth, however, remains the most popular method of referral, doctors say. “Advertising only tells you so much,” Morris says, “but a personal reference that ‘I go to this clinic and the staff is always friendly and I’ve always had good care’ can say a lot more than print.” Kennedy agrees. “There are so many options, and I think the overload of information can be too much to figure out, so it’s nice when someone can say you need to go here.”
Insurance considerations Nowadays, health plans play a greater role in doctor choices. “If you already have health insurance, make sure the clinic you’re choosing is in your network, so that [your care] is covered at the top tier,” Morris says.

Your legacy of giving: Review your beneficiary lists
N
o time like the present to discuss the future, fi nancial planners say
As you age, you’re likely to hear from fi nancial planners who will remind you that you’ll need to take time to evaluate your will and legacy for those you leave behind as your beneficiaries. With this thought in mind, Thrivent Financial for Lutherans offers these tips to help get you started on a beneficiary review.
Your estate: for beneficiaries only One of the most common mistakes people make is failing to update the beneficiary designations on fi nancial contracts to coordinate with their will and other estate plan documents. Beneficiary designations supersede bequests made in a will. Your intentions for giving your estate may be at risk if your designations are not kept up to date. Life insurance and fi nancial services companies can distribute money only to the designated beneficiaries. Life events make it necessary to update your designations from time to time. If your beneficiary moves, you
should update his or her address to ensure your beneficiary will be contacted should benefits need to be paid out. Also, if you become divorced or widowed, you should review your designation and possibly update it. Wills are created to eliminate confusion for your loved ones in your absence. Some work now will be worth it when the time comes to enact your will.
They also provide an opportunity to discuss the future with loved ones: conversations that may otherwise be avoided. Leaving a legacy for the people and causes you care for most is a lasting, meaningful gift. To learn more, visit Thrivent.com.

Consult a financial professional The laws related to inheriting assets are complex and can be confusing unless you have an experienced professional at your side. Financial professionals can help guide you through the process of updating your will. They can answer questions and provide insight on common solutions to will-related issues, and they can ensure that your wishes are granted with the way you set up your plans.
An ongoing process Thrivent Financial recommends you review and update your beneficiary designations at least once a year or any time you have a life event. Regular reviews can prevent surprises down the road.

Continued from page 5 Unfortunately, most people cannot choose their health care plan but must take whatever their employer offers. That’s why it’s important to be familiar with your insurance’s policies, Morris says, especially when it comes to referrals and medications. For example, some plans do not allow selfreferrals; others have higher co-pays for specialists than primary care providers.
Other factors More health care providers are also moving to electronic medical records, which allow primary care doctors to better coordinate care at the touch a screen. For example, Morris can pull up a patient’s CT scan from St. Francis Regional Medical Center in Shakopee and read the radiologist’s notes immediately following the procedure. It’s a continuity of care many patients appreciate, she says.
Potential patients often ask Kennedy questions about her general practice, too, such as if I leave a message, will you be the one who returns my phone call? Or to which hospital do you admit patients? Clinic hours and location can also be decision drivers. Consumers should consider what fits best into their lifestyle: A clinic close to work for lunch-hour appointments? Or if you have kids, a clinic close to home?
Specialists The advantage of selecting a primary provider who is part of a health care system is the built-in network of specialists, Morris says. Primary care doctors are often familiar with multiple specialists and can offer recommendations based on expertise, personality or schedule. For example, Morris says,
it’s nice when she can offer patients a little heads up about a referred specialist, such as “he’s brusque but top-notch” or “she might be busy but worth the wait.”
State.mn.us/portal/mn/jsp/ home.do?agency=BMP: Check a doctor’s disciplinary history from the Minnesota Board of Medical Practice.
Don’t be afraid to ask specialists questions, either. Asking a doctor how often he or she has seen your particular condition and how treated it in the past is one way of researching his or her expertise.

The right fit
takes time to develop trust.
When it comes down to it, though, fi nding the right doctor is really about ensuring you have someone you can trust, Kennedy says: A doctor who knows you, listens to you and takes the extra time to support you.
“These days there are such a wide array of options and choices when making medical decisions,” Kennedy says. “Having the right provider, one you can trust and one that you feel really knows you, can be your ally and give you a lot confidence while having [medical] decisions you and your loved ones to make.”
If you’re not comfortable after a few visits, don’t be afraid to look for a new doctor, she says. But remember sometimes it

Choosing a senior care facility These tips can help you make an informed decision By Angelo Gentile
M
oving to a senior care facility is a major decision. The move will bring substantial changes for you and your aging loved one. Several local senior care professionals recently offered advice and tips for helping you through this challenging decision.
Do your homework first Various sources recommended fi rst visiting with a social worker, who can help you plan for and identify all of the issues involved in this significant life transition. In addition, consulting with your insurance provider is a good idea to fi nd out just what types of services will be covered by your plan.
Transitional Care Center Rehabilitation for Cognitively Impaired
Speaking of those services, a consultation with your family doctor and any specialists is necessary to fi nd out just what medical services may be required now and in the future. Also, as the website Seniorcarehomes.com recommends, gather information about senior services and senior housing options ahead of time, before the need actually arises. “This will give you time to fully explore” this decision.

Tour several places If time permits, tour lots of senior communities, say local senior care personnel. “Visiting different places is a good idea,” says Yvonne Anderson, marketing director at St. Gertrude’s Health and Rehabilitation Center in Shakopee. And, though she says just dropping by for a visit is okay, she recommends calling ahead so that more time can be arranged to thoroughly visit the facility, ask questions and meet staff.

vibe, if they seem happy, if there’s a good atmosphere there.”
Bring a list of questions You will have lots of questions, so make a list ahead of time and bring it along. You’ll have general questions about activities for residents, dining options, transportation services, etc., says Anderson of St. Gertrude’s.
When you do visit various places, “It’s important to interact with the staff,” says Drew Hood, administrator for Oak Terrace Senior Living in Jordan, a family owned facility with locations in Jordan, North Mankato and Gaylord. “At the end of the day, no matter how nice the building and facilities are, it is the staff who make it home.”
More important, you’ll have medical-related questions about the range of services that facilities offer. For example, Anderson explains, St. Gertrude’s provides three components for senior living: assisted living, long-term nursing care and rehabilitation and/or transitional care. Seek answers to these questions so that you’ll “know what kinds of services and activities are available and the kind of environment the person wants to live in...fi nd the things that are going to make everyone’s life the most convenient and safest.”
