2 Continuity of Care Paradigm
3 WMC Team
4 PCMH and the Medical Neighborhood 4
5 Reality of Care Coordination The typical primary care physician has 229 other physicians working in 117 practices with which care must be coordinated. Pham et. al Ann Int Med In the Medicare population, the average beneficiary sees seven different physicians and fills upwards of 20 prescriptions per year Partnership for Solutions, Johns Hopkins Univ. 2002
6 Colorado SOC/PCMH Initiative Coordination of Care 2009
7 Making Connections Care coordinator job description and protocol consistent with available resources. External care coordination Hospital and skilled nursing facilities Specialists Internal care coordination High-acuity patients Post-hospital Multi-morbid diseases Frequent ED utilization Patient Navigator/Disease Management/ Health Coaching
8 Geographic continuity -- WMC Hospitals List of facilities and contact personnel Relational Continuity Patient Identification of PCP Patient education by practices, plans, hospitals wallet card PCMH ID Informational continuity Daily census of admits, discharges, updates (hospitals, hospitalists, IPA) Post hospital transition (Discharge care plan) Bi-directional Communication (Forms) ED/in-hospital medical information transfer

15 Building a Neighborhood Phase 1: Planning Phase 2: Implementation Phase 3: Evaluation (and Continuous Implementation) Phase 4: Sustainability and Continuous Improvement
16 Phases and The 5 A sa
17 ADVISE: The Implementation Message You as PCPs survive and thrive! Benefits to a PCMH-N Patients Activated, prepared, engaged Specialty Care Physicians Maintain autonomy, known for quality care, more exclusive patient volume from PCP Practice of Medicine Reclaim the joy of medicine, camaraderie, why you went into medicine Health Care Solvency, sustainability jump start, pioneering it it s the way of the future!
18 ADVISE: Collaborative Guidelines Transition of Care Mutual Agreement Maintain accurate and up-to to-date clinical record. Agree to standardized demographic and clinical information format t such as the Continuity of Care Record [CCR] or Continuity of Care Document [CCD] Ensure safe and timely transfer of care of a prepared patient Expectations Primary Care Specialty Care PCP maintains complete and up-to to-date clinical record including demographics. Transfers information as outlined in Patient Transition Record. Orders appropriate studies that would facilitate the specialty visit. Informs patient of need, purpose (specific question), expectations and goals of the specialty visit Provides patient with specialist contact information and expected timeframe for appointment. Determines and/or confirms insurance eligibility Identifies a single referral contact person to communicate with the PCMH When PCP is uncertain of appropriate laboratory or imaging diagnostics, assist PCP prior to the appointment regarding appropriate pre-referral referral work- up
19 ADVISE Access Mutual Agreement Be readily available for urgent help to both the physician and d patient via phone or . e Provide visit availability according to patient needs. Be prepared to respond to urgencies. Offer reasonably convenient office facilities and hours of operation. Provide alternate back-up when unavailable for urgent matters. Expectations Primary Care Specialty Care Communicate with patients who no-show to specialists. Determines reasonable time frame for specialist appointment. Provide a secure option for communication with patient and specialist. Notifies PCP of first visit no-shows or other actions that place patient in jeopardy. Provides visit availability according to patient needs. Be available to the patient for questions to discuss the consultation. Schedule patient s s first appointment with requested physician. Be available to PCP for pre-consultation exchange by phone and/or secure . When available and clinical practical, provide a secure option for communication with established patients and provider.

20 ADVISE Collaborative Care Management Mutual Agreement Define responsibilities between PCP, specialist and patient. Clarify who is responsible for specific elements of care (drug therapy, referral management, diagnostic testing, care teams, patient calls, patient education, monitoring, follow-up). Maintain competency and skills within scope of work and standard d of care. Give and accept respectful feedback when expectations, guidelines es or standard of care are not met Agree on type of specialty care that best fits the patient s s needs. Expectations Primary Care Specialty Care Follows the principles of the Patient Centered Medical Home or Medical Home Index. Manages the medical problem to the extent of the PCP s s scope of practice, abilities and skills. Follows standard practice guidelines or performs therapeutic trial of therapy prior to referral, when appropriate, following evidence ce- based guidelines. Reviews and acts on care plan developed by specialist. Resumes care of patient when patient returns from specialist care. Explains and clarifies results of consultation, as needed, with the patient. Makes agreement with patient on long-term treatment plan and follow-up. Reviews information sent by PCP Addresses referring provider and patient concerns.

Provide to and obtain informed consent from patient according to community standards. Explores patient issues on quality of life in regards to their specific s medical condition and shares this information with the care team. Expectations Primary Care Specialty Care Explains specialist results and treatment plan to patient, as necessary. Engages patient in the Medical Home concept. Identifies whom the patient wishes to be included in their care team. Informs patient of diagnosis, prognosis and follow-up recommendations. Provides educational material and resources to patient. Recommends appropriate follow-up with PCP. Will be accountable to address patient phone calls/concerns regarding their management. Participates with patient care team.
22 ADVISE: TRANSITION OF CARE 22 Elements, 8 Sections RECORD Specialist-to-PCP Practice information Patient demographics as name, DOB ICD-9 Diagnosis codes Reason for referral and clear goals of care and interventions Clinical Data Medical history, current medications Labs or diagnostic test results Care team = other doctors who see the patient Recommendations for treatment Who is responsible for followup, monitoring the patient and when Patient s treatment goals, education materials given to patient Medication changes, new diagnoses, changed diagnoses Technical procedures completed Communication preferences: fax, letter, , phone Type of Care Transition Defining the Relationship (Ex. co-management with principle care) Definitions were developed by the American College of Physicians

33 What did we learn? Not aware of PCMH or Medical Neighborhood concept Most willing to participate and believe they are or can fulfill most expectations A A slam dunk, Ideal in principle Interpretation of the Compact not straight forward Unclear about definitions of transitions/management relationships and patient-centered care Wide variety of practice infrastructure, capacities, effort and barriers to change Staffing, technology, teamwork Systems improvement (QI) not on radar! Overwhelmed Specialists cater to many differing PCP requests Transition of Care Record and QI are main points of conversation
