1 Jackie F. Webb, DNP, FNP-BC Assistant Professor Linfield College Participants will understand differences between traditional care vs. group care Participants will describe effective components of group care Participants will describe barriers and facilitators to group care in primary care environments. Why should we be researching innovative health care delivery models? 1

2 Number of Patients 9/23/2015 (Source: Wu, S & Green, A. Projection of Chronic Illness Prevalence and Cost Inflation. RAND Corporation, October 2000) million 26 million Conditions Chronic Pain Diabetes Cardiovascular Disease Cancer Stroke 16.3 million 12 million 7 million Medicaid Expansion will cover > 13 million uninsured Americans and another 24 million through the new federal an/or state health insurance exchanges. (CBO, 2014) Shortage and maldistribution of PCP s impacting adequate access to care Dower & O Neil, RBJ Found Synthesis Project, 2011; Lakhan & Laird, Int. Arch Med, 2009; 2(14); 1-4 Providers are looking for innovations in health care delivery to address: Complex health care needs Access barriers to health care services. 2

3 Better Care Better Health Affordable Care Better Provider Satisfaction Bodenheimer, T., & Sinsky, C. (2014). From triple to quadruple aim: care for the patient requires care of the provider. Annals of Fam Med (12)6.) Patient driven focus and concerns A medical appointment attended by 4-10 patients, their caregivers, nurse, and other members of the health care team Appointments may last from minutes Medical care is delivered during visits Different from the traditional 1:1 model of patient and provider Different from Support or Educational Groups Focus is on selfmanagement skills Shared Learning Group Care: Patient Centered Care Support from other patients with similar condition More time with provider 3

4 With < 8-10 patients at a time With patients < 65 years of age With patients with similar diagnosis Patient led groups When providers are familiar with Group Care: Group dynamics Communicate well Model Team Confidentiality is discussed Self-management is a central tenet of most group care models Primary care clinics using group care model report: Patients have greater knowledge of self-care skills Improvement in patient access to care Increased time spent with each patient Enhanced patient outcomes Decreased emergency room visits Increased patient and provider satisfaction ( Bendix & Brower, 2011; Bronson & Maxwell, 2004: Jaber et al, 2006; Kawasaki et al, 2007; Thacker, Maxwell) Group care has been used with various chronic conditions: Diabetes: Majority of research Variables that have been researched: Primary Physiological indicators: A1C, weight, BP, BMI, Peak flow levels Secondary indicators: Hospitalization ER admissions Medication use Frequency of services Patient and provider satisfaction 4

5 Cross-Sectional Survey for Providers: 23 Questions, Investigator designed Clinic Survey Monkey link Sample size: 126 providers (MD, NP, PA, RN, LPN) 69 respondents or 55% response rate Focus Group for Patients: One time meeting: 5 questions 11 women ages diagnosed with CNMP for > 1 year, average 21 years Total # of Providers Female Respond. Male Respond Total # Respondents Average Practice Years Respondents MD (69%) (SD 17.1) NP/PA (49%) 13.4 (SD 10.0) RN (50%) (SD 12.2) LPN n/a Total (79%) (21%) 69 (55%) 14 (SD 11.5) Prescriber (N=40) Yes Received Adequate Pain Educ. in school Wants more Pain education Benefit from Group Care for CNMP pt.'s Wants to Want to learn participate in about Group Care Group Care 9 (23%) 26 (65%) 26 (65%) 29 (73) 18 (45%) No 29 (73%) 10 (25%) 1 (2.5%) 4 (10%) 8 (20%) Not Sure 2 (5%) 4 (10%) 13 (33%) 6 (15%) 14 (35%) Non-presc (N=29) Yes 12 (41%) 23 (79%) 21 (72%) 25 (86%) 15 (52%) No 13 (45%) 4 (14%) 1 (3%) 5 (17%) Not sure 4 (14%) 2 (7%) 7 (24%) 3 (10%) 9 (31%) 5

6 # of Providers # of Providers 9/23/ Prescriber (MD, NP/PA) Pt. willingness to participate Provider knowledge Administrative Support Non-prescriber (RN/LPN) Pt. knowledge of group care Practice setting Staff knowledge of group care Prescriber (MD, NP/PA) Non-prescriber (RN, LPN) Provider willingness to participate in Group Care Provider knowledge of Group Care Pt. willingness to participate in Group Care Staff willingness to participate in Group Care Administrative Support Staff knowledge of Group Care Barriers: A provider who doesn t understand CNMP Confidentiality Facilitators: Providers that know CNMP and are up to date Learning from others Increased time with provider 6

7 1. Providers believe there is benefit from Group Care Believe CNMP patients benefit from Group Care 2. Perceived Barriers: Pt knowledge and willingness to participate 3. Perceived Facilitators: Provider and staff willingness to participate 4. Patient s concerns: Provider knowledge of CNMP Confidentiality Implementation of innovative health care delivery models requires: Pilot test strategy Practice site evaluation Education to increase knowledge & comfort (strategies for successfully preparing prescribers may be different from non-prescribers) NP education requires: Curriculums to include Group Care skills More research to document effects of Group Care Compensation: Individual billing vs. group billing 7
