3 I. A Best Practice Approach To Strategic Planning 3

4 Strategy In An Uncertain Landscape The strategic plan for the current market The strategic plan for the future market The transition plan to the future market Should focus on optimizing the performance of current operations (market positioning, market share, revenue, margins, etc.) Should have a vision for your organization in its next generation and determine the time and resource required to make that change The framework for moving from current market to future market A solid plan for the future frees the management team to focus on a plan to optimize the performance of current operations and build cash reserves to fund future development. 4

5 Value Of Strategic Planning For Your Organization Interprets the mission and vision, providing clear direction for the short-term and for the future Serves as a formal process to allocate limited resources Establishes strategic priorities Ensures organizational alignment Establishes the basis for on-going performance reporting on organizational status provided by the chief executive officer to the board 5

6 Value Of Planning For CEO & Management Team Provides clarity from the board regarding organizational priorities and performance expectations Serves as the basis for development of organizational infrastructure and operating plans Serves as the basis for departmental and program plans 6

7 Making New Models A Sustainable Reality Takes New Management Practices & Discipline 1. Develop vision of future competitive advantage and market positioning 2. Scenario-based strategic plan incorporating alternate future positioning options 3. Detailed plans marketing, financial, operational, capital, HR, etc. to implement strategy and future vision 4. Key performance metrics and metrics-based management to track strategy implementation (and allow mid-course adjustments) 5. Optimization of current operations to keep current programs as competitive (and profitable) as possible as long as possible 6. New service model development to support future vision 7. Collaborations as needed to facilitate new market vision 7

8 Assess The Realities Of Your Organization s Assets Available For Making The Changes Ahead Historical mission and vision organizational charter Regulatory limitations Competition in market Organizational culture Management team competencies and expertise C-suite leadership qualities Financial resources Time The same wind blows on us all, the difference is in the set of the sail. 8

9 II. Why Scenario-Based Planning May Be The Best Option In A Changing Market 9

10 Scenario-Based Planning Is A Tool For Planning In A Chaotic Market Most organizations need to move forward with implementation without final information Most practical option is concurrent scenario building and planning A Scenario Is An outline of an hypothesized chain of events Depictions of a future that are useful to clarify thinking not predictions or forecasts of what will happen; rather, a suggestion of what might happen Several (usually 3-5) descriptions of hypothetical situations interspersed with extrapolations of trends; more useful for understanding options and dealing with uncertainty than in predicting specific events 10

11 Scenario-Based Planning Process 1. Build scenarios of likely future situations and high-level implementation plans for each 2. Determine the common elements in the scenario implementation plans common organizational capabilities, resource investments, partnerships, etc. 3. Select the most likely scenario to occur as the basis for the strategic plan 4. When building the operational implementation plan, implement the common elements to all scenarios first 5. Monitor events to update scenarios and action plans 6. Continuously update both the scenarios and the implementation plans based on new developments 11

12 Strategy Development - Common Strategic Options For Consideration Closure of services/service lines that are not profitable and/or affordable and/or good fit Strategies to improve margins of existing service line Building value added products to increase margins Expansion of successful service lines (expansion of geography, new customer base, etc.) Diversification of revenue sources Reconfiguration of services within value chain Strategies to address shifting economy of scale issues 12

13 Factors Contributing To Failed Plan Implementation Poor preparation of line managers Inadequate linkage of strategic plan with other control systems Definitions of service lines and operating units not precise Badly handled reviews of business unit plans Vaguely formulated goals Inadequate information for action planning 13

21 Sample External Analysis Data 21

22 National Trends National Trend #1: Most health and human service public payer policy decisions across the nation are now driven by budget issues, given the Federal and state budget deficits and the current economy. National Trend #2: Payers, insurers, and managed care plans are all under price pressure, resulting in continued rate pressure on providers and the demand to increase efficiencies and demonstrate outcomes. 22

23 National Trends National Trend #3: Consumers are paying more out of pocket expenses in the form of deductibles and co-payments for many payers. National Trend #4: The per person cost of health care continues to rise due to an aging population, longer life expectancies, and the cost of new medical technologies. 23

24 National Trends National Trend #5: There continues to be a rising proportion of population that is uninsured, and the future of health care reform, with its planned expansion of health care coverage, is uncertain at this time. National Trend #6: Lastly, all of the easy health care cost savings have already been made in past decades. 24

25 New Jersey Trends New Jersey Trend #1 New Jersey is likely to move reimbursement for many of its public sector behavioral health services from a contract-based and cost-based financing to a fee-for-service for providers. New Jersey Trend #2 New Jersey s implementation of the Comprehensive Medicaid Waiver is likely to fundamentally change provider revenue streams; billing, reporting, and compliance requirements; and clinical operations. New Jersey Trend #3 New Jersey s deinstitutionalization movement, in compliance with the Supreme Court s Olmstead decision, will continue to drive the demand for specialized, communitybased, behavioral health services. 25

26 Massachusetts Environmental Trends Discussion Massachusetts Trend #1 Expansion of Services Community Justice, Addiction, Child and Family, Elder Services Massachusetts Trend #2 Family/Individual Empowerment/Self Directed Services Massachusetts Trend #3 Development of Managed Care for people with Medicaid/Medicare; expansion of Affordable Care Act (including expansion of Medicaid coverage); Development of Integrated Care Organizations/Accountable Care Organizations 26

77 Strategic Planning Case Study #3 77

78 The Situation Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities provider in New York State $45million in annual revenues 78

79 Identified New York Environmental Trends OPWDD Continues Its Transformation Into Managed Care OPWDD Has Set Goals To Ensure The HCBS Settings Rules Are In Compliance By March Of 2019 OPWDD Is Streamlining & Improving The Self- Direction Program The OLMSTEAD Decision & The Americans With Disabilities ACT Requires NYS To Achieve Full Community Integration OPWDD Will Complete Their Rate Rationalization Effective July 1, 2017 The Effects Of The New Minimum Wage Are In Full Effect New York State Department Of Labor Increased The Overtime Exempt Salary Threshold There Is An Increased Effort For Mergers, Acquisitions, Collaborations, Or Affiliations We Are Incorporated Under ABCDE, Inc. 79

80 Key Findings Of The Strategic Analysis The organization is financially stable, but does not have diverse revenue streams. The State of New York s transformation to managed care, and the creation of Care Coordination Organizations (CCOs) are critical changes in the structure and financing for the services that the organization delivers.

82 Strategic Planning Case Study #4 82

83 The Situation Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities provider in State of Ohio $27 million in annual revenues 83

84 Ohio State Trends The overall structure of employment services in the state of Ohio is difficult for providers to administer and operate with the available funding. Funding for nursing support for individuals in the Ohio Waiver program has ended, but there remains considerable need for nursing services. Key payers in the state of Ohio are moving towards value-base reimbursement models where outcomes measured will be used to track performance and be linked to payment for services. There is a lack of funding and support for the transportation services needed by individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities in the State of Ohio. Human service providers in Ohio and around the country are facing enormous workforce challenges. This includes finding and being able to competitively compensate qualified staff at all levels of their organizations. Changing role of Intermediate Care Facilities (ICF) in the service system and corresponding challenges in ICF funding. 84

85 The Shifting IDD Market The I/DD market is evolving along with the health and human service market. There are four key trends that are shaping the future of IDD services: More managed care for long-term services and supports (LTSS) More community-based care More care coordination and integration of care management More self-directed services 85

89 Key Findings Finding #1: The organization has a strong brand reputation and critical core competencies in managing the care and cost of services for individuals with cognitive and developmental disabilities, and other complex conditions. This represents a significant market opportunity for expansion of services and the organization s impact on individuals, families, and communities. Finding #4: The organization needs to grow significantly larger in terms of its size and scope of services so that it can continue to make the major investments in infrastructure and operations it needs in today s health care market. Finding #2: The organization is a financially stable organization, but operates with very small profit margins, making it difficult to make investments in staff and infrastructure.

105 Two Years Later: Update On The OPEN MINDS Children & Family Center 105

106 Two Years Later: Update On The OPEN MINDS Children & Family Center Two years later, the executive team at the Center remains the same. The board has reconvened to review the agency s financial situation and to revisit the strategic plan. Key updates include the following: The agency has financed its losses over the past five years with unrestricted funds from its endowment. At current rates, these available funds will be exhausted in months. Demand for the Center s residential services for youth in the juvenile justice system continues to decline and the overhead costs of maintaining the campuses contributes to significant losses for the residential service lines. Demand for outpatient and school-based programs continues to grow, but the agency lacks the financial resources to continue to expand these services to new geographic areas. 106
