  4. How to measure impact? Number treating over time? Cumulative “Treatment Score” Average Treatment Score “Treatment Score”* 0 - not treating 1 - CAT 2 - topicals 3 - phototherapy 4 - oral systemic 5 - biologic Days post initial contact N = 519 total, N = 5 at more than 1 year *Invented by Mike. Don’t quote me on this.

  5. How to measure impact? PNC vs. Annual Survey – Number Treating? Percent of moderate-severe patients treating with Humira N = 294 N = 362

  6. How to measure impact? DEFINE NAVIGATION CENTER OBJECTIVES 1. Call center or case management service? 2. Domestic or international? 3. Educational resource or treatment funnel? • 4. Quantity or quality? • Quantity always matters but we need to accept limitations: • Patient burden • Response bias • Method of contact • 5. Why collect data? • Satisfy corporate sponsors (what if sponsors weren’t corporate?) • Support advocacy efforts around access to care • Improve quality of PNC services • Assess health outcomes of our population • Research

  7. How to measure impact? Proposed data collection system • 1. Collect simple core data from “everyone”: • Sponsor obligations • PNC process improvement • Advocacy support • 2. Offer opt-in for annual surveying • Offer incentive? • Consent • Compare head to head with annual survey 3. Capture additional information in the form of navigator notes • Annual survey • PNC opt-ins (case) vs. annual survey panel (control)
