Targeting care through the application of Risk Stratification
NHS Tayside/NHS Grampian
• More targeted and co-ordinated care at a local level
• An objective and smart way of managing data to assist in day to day business
• To demonstrate the applicability of the model developed in Tayside to another Board area where IT systems differ
What are we trying to achieve?
• Future challenges of changing demographics
• Need for high quality, safe,efficient and effective service delivery
• Objective, user friendly way of managing populations and monitoring caseloads
Why are we trying to achieve this?
Where have we got to?
• 11 practices agreed to take part• Revised timescales applied to PID• Aim to move forward and pilot from January• Completing final arrangements with
Tayside, environment now ready• Data Sharing Protocol going through sign-
off• Good buy in and enthusiasm to progress

Enhanced SPARRA Predictive Model & SPARRA Patient Alerts
Risk prediction and service development
Kathleen McGuire – Long Term Conditions Manager
Ehealth LTC Workshop
November 2011
Aim
• Integrated systems and communications
• Expand the cohort of patients for whom a risk score can be calculated over and above the current SPARRA “All Ages” (Version 2) algorithm
• Improve the predictive power of the algorithm
• Provide the board with a risk prediction tool which will identify patients for referral to Community Wards
Scope
• Feasibility of a model which included GP/Primary Care, Social Care, Accident and Emergency and Prescribing data. Any other potentially useful sources which may serve as a predictor for emergency hospitalisation, including falls and IoRN.
• Producing a linked data set
• Improved data links to and from Primary and Secondary Care
Deliverables
• Data extract specification
• Predictive risk model (with technical report and recommendations)
• Reporting and implementation scoping requirements (report)
• Prototype reporting tool (with user manual)
• Final report (with conclusions and recommendations)
• Post project evaluation (report )
• Lessons learned will inform the national development of SPARRA, predictive risk modelling, related tools
• GP SCI Gateway referral message integrated into ADASTRA
How we have taken forward
• Appointed a Data Analyst
• Appointed a Project Manager
• Gained strategic organisational commitment- eHealth programme
• Gained buy in by utilising other national SPARRA developments & improvements
• Integrated the project with service development of Community Hubs
• Expansion of current LES

What we have learned so far
• Project needs to be integrated with other development
• Requires stakeholder buy in
• Differing views around data specification
• Quality and coding of data
• Informed consent and data sharing
What we have learned so far
• Time, expertise and partnership required
• IT systems used in out of hours setting suffer from poor demographics and duplicates
• Integrating Primary Care systems with the out of hours service requires a primary data cleansing task
Our wish
• To use the principles of risk adjustment to evaluate the pathways of complex community-based interventions to reduce avoidable hospitalisation, eg testing the cost effectiveness of Community Wards and Telehealth
• To link large datasets at an individual level pseudonymously through our partnership arrangements and relationships
• Predict future costs of health and social care
Our wish
• To exploit new Clinical Portal technology to help distribute electronic information to the point of care.
• Successful procurement of a new community wide IT system (currently in progress) to support collection of data and distribution.
Requirements & Next Steps
• National Support and continuation
• CHI Seeding, time & expertise
• Integrated IT systems within and across organisations
• Go live with model 1st April
• Extend roll out and testing of CPM
• Further integrate SPARRA & IRF

• Testing – Several phases based on development
from suppliers• Complete Clinical Guidance• Support LTC pilots• Prepare for national rollout
– eHealth Strategy deliverable by 2014
Long Term Conditions & e-Health
KEY INFORMATION SUMMARY
• Initial development complete, KIS displaying in test portal.
• Stylesheet update - November 2011• Review and approval by ECS user group Nov – Dec 2011• Portal Release – Dec 2011• Pilot practices identified – pilot February 2012 following
delivery of KIS for EMIS in Jan 2012• Lessons learned reported back - March – April 2012
Long Term Conditions & e-Health
Clinical Scenario
• Mr Smith, 76 yrs, Mild to moderate dementia• Carer is 75 yr old frail wife• Has had an SSA completed and care manager
appointed by social work • Has a care plan
• Mr Smith becomes ill on Saturday and presents to OOH GP…
Long Term Conditions & e-Health
AT PRESENT
• The SSA and care plan are paper based and not easily shared. • The OOH GP may have a faxed special note re the patient but
may not. • The OOH GP doesn’t know what services are involved, or why
the patient is agitated and resistant to intervention by medical staff
• The patients carer appears frail, so the patient is admitted for IV fluids and antibiotics.
• The patient becomes more agitated and confused in the unfamiliar hospital environment and the carer is without the usual community supports
• Hospital staff are unaware of the patients full history or how best to manage him
• Patient deteriorates and carer struggles to cope leading to prolonged admission
Long Term Conditions & e-Health
IN FUTURE…• Those working with patient in the community (health and
social care) will be able to see SSA and care plan from the Clinical portal
• GPs completes KIS, indicates is care plan, states history and diagnosis, key contacts, services available and care manager
• OOH GP has enough information to treat patient without admission
• Patient remains in familiar environment and does not become agitated
• Carer continues to receive support in the community • If patient does require to be admitted, hospital staff can see
history in portal, knows who key contacts are and can work with discharge teams for speedier supported discharge.
Key Information Summary
NHS Forth ValleyProgress to date
KIS / EMIS evaluation
• Local KIS Project Board established • 11 GP practices recruited
– Practice Teams established– Meeting of practices scheduled for 1st
December• Key contacts in OOH and ED established• KIS progress monitored through CHP eHealth
committee via monthly highlight report• QI involvement to develop evaluation
methodology and evaluation tools
KIS / EMIS evaluation
• Raising awareness of KIS pilot at Organisational level e.g. GP sub, ACF, LTC.
• Keen for FV staff to be involved in Webex demo / SEF testing etc.
• Developed a KIS intranet webpage • Key concern – timing of Adastra
implementation• On track for KIS live testing Feb / March
2012

Realising the quality and efficiency benefits
eHEALTH in support of LONG TERM CONDITIONS
17 November 2011
Susan Bishop, QuEST
We’re aiming to understand the quality and efficiency benefits?
• There’s variation, waste and harm in services for people with long term conditions
• Each Board’s striving to be more efficient and
give better outcomes and experience, but may not be aware of what more they can achieve and at what cost
Outpatients, Primary and Community Care
• Manage demand & capacity - pace of Lean in community, PGP• Translate local into national gains - scale & spread anticipatory care•Transform demand on secondary care - new and return outpatients• Think differently about 4 Primary Care contracts -cross contract opportunity
NHS Board Lead:Elaine Mead
SGHD Lead: Graeme Dickson
QuEST Support: Susan Bishop
What are we expecting to see?
• Transformed acute, community, primary and self care demand
• Improved utilisation of existing resources
• Over a 12 month period
• Learning about what didn’t work
What approaches can we use to
determining benefits and costs?
Return on investment calculation
• Benefit Cost Ratio = Benefits/Costs• Example: 1000/500 = 2• ROI = Net Programme Benefits/Program
Costs X 100• Example: (1000-500)/500 x100 = 100%• Second shows the return clearly on
initial investment (cost).
