1 Process Redesign to Improve Chemotherapy Appointment Booking at the BC Cancer Agency Vincent Chow BC Cancer Agency Ruben Aristizabal Pablo Santibáñ áñez Kevin Huang Martin Puterman Nancy Runzer

2 The Presentation in One Slide Background: scheduling for outpatient clinic Problem: late appt. confirmation and long waitlist Causes: outdated, over constrained processes Solution: addition of flexibility through process redesign and optimization-based scheduling tool Results: 58% reduction in late appt. confirmation; 84% decrease in waitlist; patient/staff satisfaction improvement 2

3 Background

4 BC Cancer Agency Province-wide, population-based cancer control program for residents of British Columbia & Yukon Full spectrum of cancer care, from prevention and screening, to diagnosis, treatment, and through to rehabilitation 4

5 Cancer Treatment Options Surgery Radiotherapy Chemotherapy - Drug treatment: orally intravenously - Mostly outpatient 5

6 IV Treatment CHEMO ROOM 6

7 Chemotherapy Unit in Vancouver Centre 14,000+ appts/year: patients/day protocols - ½ to 10+ hrs treatment 10 nurses, 9 rooms, 33 chairs Open 09:00 to 19:00 7

8 Old Process Ambulatory Clinic Oncologist Orders Oncologist Appt Booking Process

9 Booking Process Appointment request Available Taken Patient waitlisted when there is no capacity left for that treatment type There is capacity available but it is restricted to other treatment types There may be flexibility in appointment day but old process did not use it Capacity by treatment type Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri?Waitlist Booked appointments 9

10 Old Process Ambulatory Clinic Oncologist Orders Chemo Treatment List Oncologist Appt Booking Process Confirmation to Patient Chemo Waitlist Chemo Unit Chemo Treatment List Chemo Waitlist Scheduling Process

11 Scheduling Process One or two days before the treatment date: Waitlist Treatment List Wed? Manage capacity: Release pre-specified capacity Add nursing time Cancellations Manage demand: Triage patients Re-schedule patients to different days based on clinical tolerance - These were not carefully defined or used 11

12 Old Process Ambulatory Clinic Oncologist Orders Chemo Treatment List Oncologist Appt Booking Process Confirmation to Patient Chemo Waitlist Chemo Unit Chemo Treatment List Manual Schedule Chemo Waitlist Scheduling Process Confirmation to Patient 12

13 Symptoms

14 Symptoms Ambulatory Clinic Oncologist Orders Chemo Treatment List Oncologist Appt Booking Process Confirmation to Patient Chemo Waitlist Chemo Unit Chemo Treatment List Manual Schedule Late confirmation Chemo Waitlist Scheduling Process Confirmation to Patient 14

15 Symptoms Operations: - Patients: late notification - Nurses: uneven workload and complexity distribution - Clerks: extensive rework; difficult scheduling - Pharmacy: drug preparation capacity exceeded - Oncologists: frustrated patients; delays to start treatment Complaints, stress, low morale, dissatisfaction and potentially adverse impact on health outcomes 15

16 Symptoms by the Numbers In the data: - Late appointment confirmation: 42% < 7 days (IQR: 11) 22% < 3 days (IQR: 21) - Waitlist: 24 pats. 1 week in advance (IQR: 15) 6 pats. 1 day in advance (IQR: 6) Figures based on extensive data analysis of appointment data from CAIS, the BCCA information system. 16

17 Appointment Waitlist Appointment Waitlist Chemotherapy Appointment Waitlist (1 week before) Jan-09 Feb-09 Mar-09 Apr-09 May-09 Jun-09 Jul-09 Aug-09 Sep-09 Oct-09 Nov-09 Dec-09 Jan-10 Feb-10 Mar-10 Apr-10 May-10 Jun-10 Jul-10 Aug-10 Sep-10 Oct-10 Nov-10 Dec-10 Appointment Date Waitlist Size

18 Impact on the Patient Cancer and chemotherapy can be physically and emotionally challenging; no need for added stress! Appointment uncertainty problematic because: - Need for advanced notice to coordinate transportation - Sufficient confirmation to take pre-treatment drugs - Travel complications and additional financial burdens for those traveling from outside Metro Vancouver 18

19 Identified Problems Root causes: - Over-constrained capacity: Several appt. types with reserved capacity Reservation levels were ad hoc and static - Inflexibility in existing booking and scheduling processes: Delayed use of tolerance and release of protected capacity Difficult to assess impact of last-minute changes to schedule on nurse and pharmacy workloads Leads to: - Unnecessary capacity conflicts - Inefficient use of existing capacity! Need to effectively use flexibility in the process 19

20 Solution
