PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE:

BLUE THORN, INC.-06/10-PRESENT

President and Founder

As president and founder of Blue Thorn Inc. (BTI) a healthcare and policy consulting firm, my 25 years of experience covers the gamut from clinical practice and leadership positions in both military and civilian hospital/private group practice settings to Corporate Medical Director roles. With responsibility ranging from management of employer health benefits to developing, influencing, and promoting national and state healthcare policy redesign, I focus on enabling all clients to not only understand the economic, policy, and delivery system changes necessary to remain viable, but to successfully create a sustainable healthcare payment and delivery system- proactively.

As an SSB Solutions senior medical consultant and recently as Chief Transformation Officer for Cornerstone Health Enablement Strategic Solutions (CHESS), I have first-hand knowledge of the challenges and roadmap needed for providers to successfully transition from fee-for-service to value. For example, I co-led a project that included in-depth analysis, structured interviews, and frequent senior management interactions for a newly integrated hospital/provider network (clinically integrated network) charged to understand culture, IT/EMR, and delivery system barriers in moving to risk. This included in-depth knowledge of the capital, payer contracts, coding and documentation efforts, analytics, physician compensation realignment challenges, and governance, while enabling a roadmap for the organization to move toward MSSP ACO participation and other risk arrangements with commercial plans. Success resides in not only sharing best practices, but recognizing what isn’t working and rapidly adjusting.

In 2014, I was the lead medical consultant for the North Carolina Medical Society (NCMS) on major Medicaid and overall ACO reform efforts.

-Crafted a strategy document paired with the proposed legislation effectively servingas a roadmap for positions the NCMS would 1) support, 2) not support/non-starters or 3) springboard for proactive agenda setting/change

-Successfully aided NCMS as “the credible voice” for physicians with meaningful steps toward patient-centered ACO efforts

-Changed the debate from “guaranteed cost” by managed care to a move from fee-for-service to provider-led value.

As an example of my ability to effect national change, from 2007-2012 I Co-Chaired the Center for Public Payer Implementation of the Patient-Centered Primary Care Collaborative (PCPCC) a multi-stakeholder organization (1000+) recognized as leading PCMH coordinated care efforts.

-Led positions galvanizing Medicaid and CMS education and best practice sharing in buy-in for the move to value

-Content developer for contracting template sections of the PCPCC “Purchaser’s Guide”, while contributing legislative positions and policy adoption for changes in qualified HDHPs

-Recognized the key role medications play for the success of care integration, then gained support for, founded, and co-led the Medication Management Taskforce. Subsequently spearheaded the development, content, and acceptance of the nationally recognized 2010 and 2012 editions of the PCPCC Resource Guide: Integrating Comprehensive Medication Management to Optimize Patient Outcomes.

Dr. Paul Grundy (PCPCC President and IBM’s Global Director of Healthcare Transformation)wrote-“the world’s foremost expert on Real "Pharmacy of the future" and the integration of that into a working delivery system is Terry McInnis.”

As Chair of the Board for the Alliance for Integrated Medication Management (AIMMc)- I lead national efforts enabling clinical pharmacist teams to operationalize emerging integrated practice and payment models- expanding prior HRSA funded innovation as a critical key to delivery system reform.

An effective communicator and national spokesperson in healthcare reform and redesign, I am on numerous speaker bureaus and present at the request of multiple stakeholders including government agencies, legislative bodies, professional associations, provider and integrated delivery systems, health plans, business coalitions, academia, the pharmaceutical industry, and patient advocacy groups.
