• ColoradoPractice Coaches: Debbie Barnett & Deb Maltby

• Improving Diabetes Care• Start date: January 2007• Number of diabetes patients in the registry:

Description of Practice• Boulder, Colorado• 3500-4000 active patients,

5% Medicare• 3.5 full time equivalent providers• Aim: to provide excellent,

comprehensive diabetes care; NCQA certification

• Staff: Manager, Phone receptionist, 2 front office, 4 MAs, 4 file clerks, part time dietician.

• Quality improvement team: 1 front office, 1 back office (MA), office manager, 2 providers, QI coach

Data collection

• Reach My Doctor (RMD): portal with diabetes and asthma registries

• Special features we use: – Care plan/flow sheet– labs automatically populate flow sheets– email reminders– labs can be emailed with our comments– patients can view their care plans

Planned care at Spruce Street …how it works

• Registry • Protocols

– Patient makes appointment and DM goes on the schedule– File clerk pulls the chart (red dot) and prints the flow sheet– MA notes that patient has DM and removes patient’s shoes– If annual sensory exam is due, she performs and

documents the exam– Visit with provider focuses on flow sheet, which is given to

patient at the end of the appointment– Self-management goals and reminder

Retinal Exams

6/07 to 5/08 6/08 to 5/09

Adopting a clinical protocol: overcoming provider insulin resistance!

• Registry enabled us to clearly identify patients with hgb AICs > 9

• Leading to a conscious decision to relearn insulin regimens to achieve better glycemic control

• MAs now trained to teach patients to administer insulin and monitor blood sugars

Sustainable improvement

• Routine protocols with immediate correction if not followed

• Staff feels responsible and integral to successful patient outcomes

• Patients develop stronger connections with ancillary staff

• Ultimate outcome is improved satisfaction for patients and staff

Next steps

• Focus on high-risk patients (hgbAiC > 9)• Challenge ourselves to attain goals on

individual diabetes measures. • Asthma registry initiated• Move forward with plan include COPD and

heart/stroke• Coordinate timely office follow up after

hospitalization to prevent readmission.

Thank you

• To all of our providers and staff for their exceptional performance

• And to Allyson Gottsman, Associate Director, and Marjie Grazi Harbrecht, MD, Medical/Executive Director of the Colorado Clinical Guidelines Collaborative

LDL in control

Chet CedarsLone Tree Family Practice

Lone Tree Family Practice

• Two physicians and two nurse practitioners One physician spends ½ time in clinical work and ½ time in practice management. One nurse practitioner spends ½ time clinical work and ½ time as Care Manager. (three FTE)

• Use Allscripts/Misys EMR with imbedded orders in Preventive Health Module based on sex, age and diagnosis.

• Query Reports to pull patient lists based on Dx and other clinical data.

Patients with 1 LDL in last 12 months

Pct of DM patients w ith >=1 LDLs

LDL < 100Pct of DM patients w ith latest LDL <100

System that Underpins Performance

• Improvements can be applied at any point to make the system perform better

To improve timely LDL measurements:

• Print list of patients with LDL >100– Mailing labels for outreach

• Last LDL date and value available at time of service

• Informal provider consensus regarding how often to measure assists with consistent messaging to patients

Interventions to Help Patients Achieve LDL Target

• Lab values auto imported to diabetes tab, including LDL

• Informal consensus among providers regarding management

• Aggressive follow up • Print out of trends from PHP registry• Guidelines and targets shared with patients • Provider directed self management strategy• Some assistance with DAPs for Rx as needed

Sustaining Activities when at Target

• Periodic re-measurement• Reinforcement of care plan • Positive reinforcement with trending graphs

Appropriate Follow Up

• Aggressive follow up encouraged

• Patients engaged in progress toward goal

• Patients recognize ongoing follow up essential for optimal outcomes

Still working on…

• Strategy to get patients in based on last date of LDL

• More data points auto populated for diabetes care parameters

• Continuing process to eliminate double data entry

• Documentation of self management goals

Qualitative DataQualitative Data

• Interviews of key informants (lead physician, practice manager, key staff) from 8 IPIP practices regarding issues around their diabetes improvement efforts through IPIP

• All practices had engaged to the point of reporting measures

• Qualitative interviews of the trial practices are in progress

Practices InterviewedPractices Interviewed

• Six from Denver metropolitan area, one from Pueblo, and one from Colorado Springs

• Ranged from three to seven clinicians,• Three belonged to an IPA in the Denver

area, two to other IPAs, and three were independent

• Primarily family medicine, with one internal medicine

Clinical ChangesClinical Changes• Practices all implemented mechanisms to identify

and track their patients with diabetes • Most used flow sheets to assist with data

management and point of care decision support –key in organizing care

• Virtually all developed a distinguished “diabetic visit”- helped focus visit activities

• Most expanded MAs’ activities, including screening questions, assessment and performance of needed labs or services

• Many developed patient recall systems to bring patients in when visits and services were due.

BarriersBarriers

• The major barrier was time

• Substantial financial costs – mostly personnel

• Insufficient staff

• “It is hard to have more than one person in the practice trained and up to speed on doing this, and they tend to be upwardly mobile.”

• Staff and clinician turnover an issue

• Problems getting information from consultants

IT BarriersIT Barriers

• Duplication of effort in data entry a huge issue, especially in practices with EHR

• Lack of ability to enter data once and have it show up in the appropriate places for administrative, clinical, and quality data reporting and use

• Often easier for practices without an EHR to implement a registry

• Practices with paper charts - charts not always available, time spent tracking them down.

BenefitsBenefits

• Improved quality of care• “Power of having better data for managing patients.” • Possibility of financial benefit through bonuses, pay-

for-performance, higher coding, group visits, and bringing patients in for services

• Improved organization and efficiency of work flow• Improved morale for clinicians • Greatly improved staff satisfaction • Staff more engaged and invested in the practice -felt

like they were more an important part of patient care
