The Secretary responded that there were none present. III. Report from Chief Quality Officer A. Regulatory and Accreditation Updates B. Metrics (Attachment #1) Dr. Krishna Das, Chief Quality Officer, provided an overview of the metrics. The Committee reviewed and discussed the information. With regard to the measure on slide 2, regarding influenza and pneumococcal vaccinations, Dr. Das noted that the table presented will need to be changed, as staff are now only looking at influenza vaccination data. During further discussion of the vaccination measure, she stated that some of the issues identified in the process include some defects in screening and that it is not being administered consistently. A System-wide group has been assembled to look into the matter further. Director Driscoll requested that Dr. Das provide additional information on the issues at the next meeting of the Committee. Director Junge requested a status update on receiving quality reports for Cermak Health Services. Dr. Das stated that a discussion was held on all of the metrics that Cermak provides; staff are in the process of trying to add those to the overall dashboards. When the dashboards are updated, the Cermak metrics will be incorporated on a separate slide, to be presented in a closed meeting. Page 1 of 50

2 Minutes of the Meeting of the Quality and Patient Safety Committee Tuesday, December 6, 2016 Page 2 III. Report from Chief Quality Officer (continued) C. Report on Environmental Services (Attachment #2) Samuel Williams, Executive Director of Facilities, provided an overview of the Report on Environmental Services. The Committee reviewed and discussed the information. The Report contained information on the following subjects: Importance of the Function of Environmental Services Performance Metrics Scope of Responsibility Assessment of Staffing, Tools / Equipment, Education / Training, Practices Recommendations / Strategies for Improvement During the discussion of the Report, Chairman Gugenheim noted that, with regard to the strategies for improvement, perhaps the titles of the frontline staff should be revised, as building service worker does not necessarily inspire pride. Mr. Williams concurred. Board Chairman Hammock requested that a couple of metrics relating to this subject be added to the Committee s regular list, and presented monthly or quarterly. It was noted that the metrics would be based on existing measures of internal assessment. It was noted that Mr. Williams will return in July for a report on the subject. Director Suleiman Gonzalez requested that he be invited to return in three (3) months for an update, not a full report. IV. Action Items A. Approve reappointments of Stroger Hospital Department Chair(s) and Division Chair(s) (Attachment #3) Dr. Suja Mathew, Chairman of the Department of Medicine, presented the two (2) Stroger Hospital Division Chair reappointments for the Committee s consideration. Director Driscoll, seconded by Director Suleiman Gonzalez, moved to approve the two (2) proposed Stroger Hospital Division Chair reappointments. THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. B. Approve proposed Amendments to the Bylaws of the John H. Stroger, Jr. Hospital of Cook County Medical Staff (Attachment #4) Dr. Ozuru Ukoha, President of the Executive Medical Staff (EMS) of Stroger Hospital, provided an overview of the proposed Amendments to the Bylaws of the John H. Stroger, Jr. Hospital of Cook County Medical Staff. He stated that these changes are being made at the request of Dr. Das, in order to meet regulatory requirements. He noted that this is being presented as an Urgent Amendment, because it needs to be in effect as soon as possible. Should the Board approve these Amendments, they become provisional and will go back to the Medical Staff for approval; following the Medical Staff s approval, they will return to the Board for final approval, at which point they are no longer provisional but are actively in effect.

3 Minutes of the Meeting of the Quality and Patient Safety Committee Tuesday, December 6, 2016 Page 3 IV. Action Items B. Approve proposed Amendments (continued) Dr. Das provided additional information regarding the proposed Amendments. She noted that the Ambulatory Quality Council has been in existence for several years already, but the reporting process for it has been informal to the EMS at Stroger Hospital. This Amendment formalizes the reporting of the Ambulatory Quality Council to Stroger Hospital s Quality Committee, which reports to the Stroger Hospital EMS. Director Driscoll stated that she hopes that CCHHS moves to a System-wide Quality Committee in the future, that is not necessarily based under hospital quality, but instead looking at the System as a whole. The hospital would be a subcommittee under that, as well as ACHN, CORE Center, etc. Dr. Das responded that she would like to see movement in that direction as well, but noted that challenges exist due to the fact that the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has specific requirements to report and be overseen by medical staff specific to the Medicare and license number that CMS grants. Dr. John Jay Shannon, Chief Executive Officer, stated that the organization is moving toward a uniform standard and uniform ways of measuring across the organization, not only in its quality reporting but in medical staff processes, privileging requirements, etc. Director Driscoll, seconded by Director Suleiman Gonzalez, moved to approve the proposed Amendments to the Bylaws of the John H. Stroger, Jr. Hospital of Cook County Medical Staff. THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. C. Executive Medical Staff (EMS) Committees of Provident Hospital of Cook County and John H. Stroger, Jr. Hospital of Cook County i. Receive reports from EMS Presidents ii.
