How might the
tool help you?
LTC YoC Simulation
tool
Testing your integrated care service models
for patients with complex care needs

 Theoretical test before implementation
 Test before you commit resources
 Evidence to support a business case
Why use the simulation tool?
To assess variation
• Set budget
• Staffing
For scenario planning
• Will it save money?
• Will more GPs be needed?
• Will emergency admissions
be reduced?

What does the simulation do?
• The simulation models how people with multiple long
term conditions use health and social care services over
a typical year.
...segmented in up to four groups
...each group having a different likelihood of accessing various services over
a year.
• Services are associated with costs and with resource
use
• The simulation can run for up to 10 years.
• Patients may move between groups as the years pass,
join or leave the patient cohort
• Users can test the impact of changes in service models
prior to implementation.

Service managers, commissioners, finance managers from
both commissioning and provider organisations:
 Those making decisions
 Those planning change (service, workforce, budget)
Informatics and IT professionals:
 Baseline information
 Manipulation of the model
 Interpretation of scenario parameters
 Sense checking results
Who should use the simulation tool?

A bit about the
underlying data

 BHR whole population data – 10% with highest risk score
 Four resource-usage categories – very high (0%-0.5%); high (0.05%-
2.0%); medium (2.0%-5.0%); and low (5.0%-10.0%).
 Acute, community, mental health and GP practice primary care (no social
care)
Distributions of data within the
model:
 Likelihood of a patient accessing services
 Number of times a patient attends or is admitted
 Costs for each attend/admission type
 Resource use for each attend/admission type
Data underpinning the model

Changes over time:
 Likelihood of leaving cohort
 New patients entering
 Transition between resource-usage categories
Need to understand where differences might affect your
results:
 Activity types
 10% of population
 Distributions and changes over time
But most of these are likely to have a small impact. Your
planned service change is still likely to have the largest impact.

How should I set the
tariff for different patient types and how does
this compare against reference costs?

What does this mean for A & E
activity?

Baseline and
scenarios

Baseline versus scenario
 Differences in activity, cost and staff
 Differences in the change in activity, cost and staff
over time
Scenarios have been included to
illustrate the type of service
changes you might wish to test
using the simulation tool
Running the model

Based on evidence from the Scottish multimorbidity programme:
• Provide services in GP practice and community care to prevent
‘avoidable’ emergency admissions in acute hospitals.
• Targets current and future high consumers of health and social care
(10% of the population with highest risk scores).
What Qs might the tool help give you some direction on...
 Would the new service be cheaper? How much cost would shift from
acute services to primary and community services?
 How many new community, MH and GP practice staff would be
needed?
Scenario 1 (built into the tool)

Based on introduction of a care navigation service.
The fundamental elements of the care navigation approach are:
 Proactive case finding (2% of the population; no split to separate care usage
groups)
 Resources shift from acute services to community, mental health & GP
primary care services
 Care co-ordination by an integrated care team - based around a GP practice,
facilitated by the voluntary sector (the care navigator)
 Care navigator support on a 1:1 and group basis to: develop goal specific to
each individual; encourage physical and social activity; and to link patients
with local assets and key ‘community makers’
The major difference between Scenario 1 and Scenario 2 are:
 10% versus 2% of the population included in the patient cohort
 Patient cohort split to 4 care usage groups for Scenario 1, versus no groups
for Scenario 2
Scenario 2 (built into the tool)

Your Own Service Change Scenario
• A Wizard walks you through how to create a new
service change scenario and reduce access or
attendance at other services
• E.g. The impact of an enhanced GP service on A&E
and urgent admissions
