Moving from a Project to Sustained Improvement

Commitment not compliance
Improvement not steady state
Innovation not following old rules
Initiative not following orders
Sustainability Mindset
12
© 2016 Health CatalystProprietary and Confidential
Commitment
13
Commitment not compliance
Commitment• Do it because you want to.• You know it’s the right thing to do.• It is the means to a desirable end.
Compliance• Because someone told you that you have to.• You must meet a regulatory measure.• Something might break if you don’t comply.
© 2016 Health CatalystProprietary and Confidential
Improvement
14
Improvement• The world changes every day.• Technology, knowledge, innovation changes the environment.• Get on the boat or get left behind.
Steady state• We have always done it this way.• I don’t have time to learn something new.• The new way takes me longer.
Improvement not steady state
© 2016 Health CatalystProprietary and Confidential
Innovation
15
Innovation• Learning new methods requires energy and focus.• Innovations can be hard to understand (how does wireless
work?)• Technology changes quickly – it’s hard to keep up.
Following old rules• You have always done it this way.• I understand how to do it this way.• It is easier to not have to learn something new.
Innovation not following old rules

Initiative
16
Initiative• Do it because you want to.• You know it’s the right thing to do.• It is the means to a desirable end.
Following orders• There are times when this is appropriate.• Break from the habit of how it’s “always” been done.
Initiative not following orders

Focus Matters

The way things need to be to create a better future
Diminish the gap

Stakeholder inclusion
19
Identify stakeholders• Upstream and downstream.• At multiple levels within your organization.• Select purposefully.
Make stakeholders feel included• There is always room for improvement. Share data to
quantify areas to improve.
• Include stakeholders in discussions regarding how your process improvement or change might impact them.

Maintain Focus to Achieve the Outcome

Build into workflow
Don’t try to boil the ocean
Do one thing at a time
Follow through
© 2016 Health CatalystProprietary and Confidential
Commitment to Improvement
21
Workflow change• Because you know it is the right thing to do.• It might help someone downstream from
you.
Culture change• Culture of curiosity. There is always room
for improvement.
• Grow out of “this is how we have always done it.”

1. Establish a Data Management Plan• How often are the data collected and analyzed?• How are the data displayed?• Where are the data displayed?• What is the process for adding new measures?
2. Establish Accountability• Who keeps the board current?• Who facilitates data integration into meetings?
3. Establish Clear Communication Pathways• Review data at regular meetings.• Consider data when making decisions.• Update stakeholders regularly of progress.

Prioritize with Sustainability in Mind
1 Not likely sustainable • Training programs• Printed Reports
3 Likely to work for an interval• Visual controls – laminated instructions• Embedded standard work• Reminders and alerts
5 ‘Hard-wired’ into the system• EMR forced fields• Change in physical environment• Change in equipment• Forcing functions
31
Determine and note the reliability score for each intervention

2. Building Data Literacy• Hiring and training to become a data-driven
organization
3. Maximizing Data Utilization • Pushing the data-driven agenda to quality
improvement, cost reduction, enhanced experience, and population risk reduction
