Burden Calculation Worksheet for the Quality IndIcator Section of the irf-pai |
Percent of Residents or Patients Who Were Assessed and Appropriately Given the Seasonal Influenza Vaccine (Short Stay) Measure (NQF #0680)
Time Burden Calculation
Average number of IRFs in U.S. = 1161
Average Number of IRF-PAI reports Submitted Per All IRFs Per Year = 359,0001
Average Number of IRF-PAI reports Submitted Per Each IRF Per Year = 309
Average Number of IRF-PAI reports Submitted Per Each IRF Per Month = 25.75
(359,000 IRF-PAI reports per all IRFs per year / 1161 IRFs in U.S. = 309 IRF-PAI reports per each IRF per year)
(309 IRF-PAI reports per IRF per year / 12 months per year = 26 IRF-PAI reports per each IRF per year)
Average Time Spent Per Each IRF-PAI Quality Indicator Section Assessment = 5 minutes
5 minutes clinical time to obtain Quality Indicator data for discharge assessment
Estimated Annual Hour Burden per each IRFs = 25.75 hours
IRF-PAI assessments per IRF per month x 5 min/assessment = 128.75 min. per IRF per month
min per IRF per month / 60 minutes/ hour = 2.14 hours per IRF per month
2.14 hours per IRF per month x 12 months/year = 25.75 hours per each IRF per year
Estimated Annual Hour Burden All IRFs per year = 29,895.75 hours
25.75 hours per IRF per month x 1161 IRFs = 29,895.75 hours per all IRFs per year
Cost/Wage Calculation
Average Time per Each Patient Influenza Assessment = 5 minutes
5 minutes nursing time to collect clinical data for admission assessment @ $33.23 per hour = $2.80
5 minutes x 309 IRF-PAI assessments per each IRF per year = 1545 minutes per each IRF per year
1545 minutes per each IRF per year / 60 minutes per hour = 25.75 hours per each IRF per year
25.75 hours per year x $33.23 per hour = $855.67 nursing wages per each IRF per year
$855.67 x 1161 IRF providers = $993,433 per all IRFs per year
Additional Calculations
Average Yearly Cost to Each IRF Provider :
$993,433 – cost for all IRFs per year / 1161 IRFS = $855.67
Average Monthly costs to Each Individual IRF Providers:
$993,433 -cost for all IRFs per year / 12 months per year / 1161 IRFS = $71.30
Cost To Provider Per Each Individual Quality Indicator Section Assessment:
$501,552 –cost for all IRFs per year / 359,000 IRF-PAI assessments per year = $2.78
