16 Introduction Maricopa Integrated Health System (MIHS) is the health care safety net for the residents of Maricopa County, Arizona. MIHS serves people of many racial and ethnic backgrounds and nationalities who come from diverse cultures and speak many different languages. Many of our patients face major challenges, such as lack of health insurance, complex medical problems, lack of social support, and difficult socioeconomic situations. Caring for such persons demands special knowledge and sensitivity. MIHS is committed to giving cultural appropriate, sensitive medical care and assisting our patients to live healthier lives. Vision: Maricopa Integrated Health System will be nationally recognized for transforming care to improve community health. Mission: The Maricopa Integrated Health System mission is to provide exceptional care, without exception, every patient, every time. Values: Accountability We hold ourselves and each other accountable by accepting personal responsibility for all that we do and stewardship of the resources we deploy on behalf of our community.

MIHS s goal is to provide the highest standard of quality health care for our community and all patients who see services. Therefore, every effort will be made to ensure patients receive care that meets community and professional standards while exceeding the patients expectations. 4

17 Ambulatory services are a key component of the care provided by MIHS. As such, the need for a quality improvement program that is unique to Ambulatory and Physician Services requires integration into the overall quality improvement program of the health system and approval from the Maricopa Health Centers Governing Council. The Ambulatory and Physician Services Quality Improvement Plan (here after referred to as the QI Plan) is not designed to supplant that of MIHS system wide quality plan, but will serve as an interface with the overall quality improvement process. The plan is designed to improve the system processes of the programs within the primary care ambulatory arena at MIHS: the twelve Federally Qualified Family Health Centers (FHC), the McDowell Health Care Center, five Whole Health Home Clinics (WHHC), 7th Avenue Walk-In Clinic, and the primary care services provided at the Comprehensive Health Center (Women s Clinic, Pediatrics, Antenatal Testing Center, Same Day Clinic and Internal Medicine). Summary: The Executive Director of Nursing; Ambulatory and Physician Services co-chairs with the Ambulatory Medical Director the Ambulatory Services Medical Quality Improvement Committee. The information and recommendations are sent to both the Governing Council for the FQHC-LA and to the Performance Improvement Committee where the Executive Director of Nursing; Ambulatory and Physician Services actively serves on. The Senior Vice President, Ambulatory and Physician Services/ Executive Director, Maricopa Health Centers Governing Council serves on the system wide Quality Management Council which reports to the MIHS Board. 5

18 Purpose The Ambulatory and Physician Services Quality Improvement program has as its focus the ongoing assessment and improvement of clinical care and health services delivery. Some of the benefits derived from the implementation and maintenance of a Quality Improvement program include: The momentum for the system to work towards continuous quality improvement (CQI) as a means to conduct business; A framework by which to monitor and strengthen health services delivery process of the organization; The ability to measure and improve clinical outcomes on specific patient populations; The integration of performance measurement in clinicians and health care staff performance reviews; An emphasis on team work and a multi-departmental approach to quality improvement; and A systems approach to health care delivery and data integration. The purpose of the QI program is to promote an ongoing effort by Ambulatory and Physician Services and the Council to monitor and evaluate the quality, cost, safety, and appropriateness of ambulatory health care. Ambulatory and Physician Services and the Council are committed to pursuing opportunities to improve health care delivery by taking ongoing action on identified quality and cost issues, and monitoring and evaluating problems-solving interventions. The pursuit of these efforts is designed to result in the provision of professionally acceptable care through timely access to care, facilitation of best practices, appropriate resource utilization, and improved community health services. Program Scope Ambulatory and Physician Services comprises all Federally Qualified Health Centers Look- Alike (FQHC-LA) designated clinics including twelve Family Health Centers (FHCs), five Whole Health Home Clinics, the McDowell Health Care Center, the Seventh Ave Walk-In Clinic and the primary care services at the Comprehensive Health Center (CHC). The twelve Family Health Centers (FHCs) include primary care for persons of all ages, obstetrics/gynecology, and pediatrics. The providers come from such disciplines as Family and Community Medicine, Internal Medicine, Complementary Alternative Medicine, Obstetrics/Gynecology, and Pediatrics. McDowell Health Care Center provides primary, dental and specialty care (infectious disease and psychiatry) for HIV infected persons. The Comprehensive Health Center (CHC) includes primary care services encompassing obstetrics/gynecology, pediatrics, internal medicine and a same day walk-in clinic. The range of available ambulatory services spans the continuum for preventive care to diagnosis and treatment of acute and chronic medical conditions. The 7 th Ave Walk-In clinic is designed to offer a broad range of services to ambulatory patients of all ages, including pediatric through geriatric patients. The Walk-in Clinic provides additional after hour services and weekend hours to all MIHS ambulatory patients. The five Whole Health 6

19 Home Clinics, co-located in community agencies, provide primary care services for adults (ages 18 years and up) who are receiving behavioral health care needs at the behavioral health site. Ancillary services offered include routine and emergency dental services for eligible children and adults, laboratory services, pharmacy services, radiology, mammography, OB ultrasound, echogram, and psychiatry. The continuum of care also includes services such as nutrition, diabetes, education, patient education, care management, community resources, and others that, while non-medical in nature, contribute to the overall health and well-being of the individual, family, and community. MIHS has 13 primary care clinics that have been granted the highest level of recognition by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) as a Patient Centered Medical Home. A Patient Centered Medical Home (PCMH) is an approach to providing health care that puts the patient at the center of the provider-led PCMH team. In a PCMH, each patient is encouraged to be an active participant in the decisions concerning their health and wellness. The PCMH team of health care professionals work together with the patient to ensure that all the healthcare needs are coordinated. The scope and content of the QI program is designed to continuously monitor, evaluate and improve clinical care and health services delivery provided to our patients. Specifically, the QI program includes, but is not limited to: Monitoring and evaluation of: o o o o o o Primary care delivery Preventive health services Management of chronic disease Acute care provided in clinic Specialty services Dental, OB/GYN, Pediatrics The continuity of care for our patients. Development, implementation and monitoring of evidence-based practice guidelines Regulatory and accreditation compliance Development and implementation of health and disease management programs Medical record review/documentation audits Patient and staff satisfaction surveys, and Monitoring, evaluation and resolution of patient complaints and grievances in coordination with the Risk Management Department. Program Goals To disseminate the principles and spirit of continuous quality improvement throughout Ambulatory and Physician Services and provide a means for integrating quality improvement responsibilities of all professional, managerial, technical, and support personnel, and demonstrate that our procedures, methods and systems are efficient and effective. 7

20 To establish guidelines, protocols and procedural operations with the objective of producing a positive impact on health services delivery and patient care 8

The organization has dedicated these resources to the QI program: QI Analyst 1FTE Medical Director 0.2 FTE Executive Director of Nursing 1.0 FTE Additional resources include technical assistance from HRSA and the Arizona Association of Community Health Centers on compliance, regulatory, safety, quality and risk management, and performance improvement. Methodology for Improvement The methodology for all improvement activities is the Improvement Model. Clinical improvements use both the Improvement Model and the Care Model. The Improvement Model guides ASMQIC and QI teams through tests of change and identification of improvement based on data. The Care Model for Ambulatory and Physician Services is the NCQA Patient-Centered Medical Home. Staff is trained on how to use the Improvement Model, PDSA cycles and the Care Model. Each team will address the three fundamental questions as they work toward improvement, utilizing the PDSA cycle. 11

24 The Improvement Model: PDSA What are we trying to accomplish? Model for Improvement What are we trying to accomplish? How will we know that a change is an improvement? What change can we make that will result in improvement? The team will complete a written statement of AIM (goal of project) with input from ASMQIC & senior leadership. The AIM will explain in broad terms what is to be accomplished and why. How will we know that a change is an improvement? The key measures will answer this question. Guidelines for development of key measures are: Act Plan Multiple measures are required more than one but less than six Include both process and outcome measures Each measure will address the AIM Study Do Measures will be based on national indicators, like HEDIS Goals for each measure will be set according to national or regional benchmarks. What changes can we make that will result in improvement? Based on the data and information gained from testing the change, the team will identify the best improvement(s) to make to accomplish the AIM of the project. The PDSA cycle is the primary means for turning the ideas from the third fundamental question into action and for connecting action to learning. Each PDSA cycle will be developed using the PDSA worksheet. 12

25 The Care Model: Patient-Centered Medical Home MIHS Patient Centered Medical Home Coordinated Care across health care settings Family and Caregivers Patient is an Quality And Safety Active Member of The Care Team Enhanced Access to Care Team based Care The Care Model incorporates the four essential elements of the patient-centered medical home: the practice organization, health information technology, the patient experience and quality measures. The team based approach to the delivery of health care has been shown to allow improved access to care, increased satisfaction with care and better health outcomes. 13

26 Measures Clinical and service indicators of quality are established and monitored on a regular basis in order to assess performance in the management of clinical care and services. Indicators are designed to reflect the demographic characteristics, prevalence of disease and/or utilization of services of the patient population. All indicators will be trended for change over time and be included in ASMQIC reports to the Council. External Accountability HRSA As a Federally Qualified Health Center Look-alike, Ambulatory and Physician Services is regulated by the Health Resources and Services Administration performance evaluation. DNV Net Norske Veritas (DNV) is the accreditation agency chosen by MIHS. DNV s standards are called NIAHO (National Integrated accreditation for Healthcare Organizations).
