Session Objectives Provide an overview of the Patient Activation Measure (PAM ) What is the PAM? Why it s important How you might use it Highlight projects from the field Kim Cahill, Quality Insights Kelly Arthur, Health Quality Innovators Show you how to access the PAM 15
What Is the Patient Activation Measure? 10 item questionnaire developed by Dr. Judith Hibbard and Dr. Bill Mahoney Measures an individual s knowledge, skills and confidence for managing their health and healthcare PAM reliably predicts ER visits, hospital admissions/readmissions, medication adherence and more. PAM activation levels are mapped to hundreds of consumer health characteristics motivators, attitudes, behaviors and outcomes for dozens of health conditions Allows providers to tailor interventions based on patient s activation level 16
Low activation signals problems and opportunities 17
A PAM score reveals an individual s position along a continuum of increasing health activation Scientifically validated measure that assesses three core domains knowledge, skills and confidence - that drive health behavior Sample Questions: #1: When all is said and done, I am the person who is responsible for taking care of my health. #10: I am confident that I can maintain lifestyle changes, like eating right and exercising, even during times of stress. 18 18

National Association of Boards of Pharmacy Danna Droz, JD, RPh Prescription Monitoring Program Liaison
Who is NABP? NABP is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit association that protects public health by assisting its member boards of pharmacy and offers programs that promote safe pharmacy practices for the benefit of consumers. NABP runs consumer education campaigns on prescription drug safety as well as provides programs and other support that assist state agencies in their prescription drug abuse prevention efforts.
What is a Prescription Drug Monitoring Program? A PDMP/PMP is a statewide electronic database that collects designated data on specified substances dispensed to or for patients. The PDMP is housed by a state regulatory, administrative, or law enforcement agency. The housing agency disseminates information from the database to individuals who are authorized under state law to receive the information for purposes identified by state law.
How a Prescription Drug Monitoring Program Works
Why Is Something else needed? Patients live, work, and seek health care across state borders. State PMPs requested that NABP assist with state-to-state communication. Solution :
NABP involvement in PMP InterConnect NABP PMP InterConnect facilitates the transfer of prescription monitoring program (PMP) data across state lines. It allows participating state PMPs across the United States to be linked, providing a more effective means of combating drug diversion and drug abuse nationwide. The benefits of state PMPs are enhanced by PMP InterConnect because the system provides the means for physicians and pharmacists to more easily identify patients with prescription drug abuse and misuse problems, especially if those patients are crossing state lines to obtain drugs. Utilizing the program s connected web of information promotes appropriate intervention and assists in the prevention of substance abuse and diversion of controlled substances.
How PMP InterConnect Works 1. To obtain multistate data, the physician/pharmacist/other person enters a request to home PMP (PMP 1). 2. PMP 1 encrypts a message and sends to PMP InterConnect for delivery to other state(s). 3. Other state(s) decrypt(s) the message, query own PMP, encrypt message, and send to PMP InterConnect. 4. PMP InterConnect delivers the encrypted message(s) to PMP 1. 5. PMP 1 decrypts the message(s), prepares a report, and delivers it to the requester.
Data Availability Each state selects other states with which to share PMP data. Sometimes state laws limit sharing. States share at least with all their participating border states. (Highest rate of return) All states collect Schedules II IV. Many states collect Schedules II V plus drugs of concern (gabapentin, pseudoephedrine, Fioricet )
PMP InterConnect Statistics Data is returned to the requesting state within seconds Every month PMP InterConnect relays 13+ million requests for patient reports 24+ million responses from other state PMPs 42 PMPs participate today (41 states + DC). NABP s goal is 50 states plus District of Columbia NO cost for states to participate in PMP InterConnect
