Creating Models for Health Care Delivery that Address Chronic Disease Linda Siminerio, PhD Senior Vice President, IDF University of Pittsburgh Diabetes Institute Associate Professor School of Medicine
Presentation Objectives: • Describe the Problem and Urgency • Present the Chronic Care Model • Report on the “Pittsburgh Regional Initiative for Diabetes Education (PRIDE)” • Present the Innovative Care for Chronic Diseases Model • Highlight Global Projects
Diabetes Worldwide Estimated number (in Millions) of people with diabetes, worldwide:* Increase in deaths from diabetes over next 10 years:† India 35% The Americas 80% the western Pacific and eastern Mediterranean regions 50% Africa >40% *Diabetes Prevalence. International Diabetes Federation, 2003. †Preventing Chronic Diseases: a vital investment, World Health Organization, 2005. 1985: 30 million 1995: 135 million 2003: 194 million 2025: 330 million
Million 2003 2005 Pre-diabetes US Diabetes Facts • 20% increase past 20 yrs • 70% increase 30-39 yr. age range • 1 in 3 children born in 2003 will get diabetes • Type 2 in children is increasing • 14 million lost work days • Annual costs -- $132 billion

Organization of Health Care(What it should be) • Evidence-based, planned care • Clinical Guidelines • Reorganization of practice (team approach) • Includes ancillary professionals with the patient as the most important member • Attention to patient needs (information) • Counseling, education, information feedback • Access to clinical expertise • Patient and provider education, access to specialists • Supportive information systems • Patient registries • Provider feedback on preventive service utilization
Organization of Health Care(What it is) • Care is not necessarily based on evidence, but experience and training • Seldom is there a team approach…care is mainly driven by the physician alone • Paternalistic and directive approach with little attention to patients’ behavioral needs • Limited access to diabetes specialists • Insurer limitations • Reluctance of primary care referral • Fragmented access • Poor information systems • No computers • Poor tracking

Quality of Care for People with Diabetes in the United States A Diabetes Report Card for the United States: Quality of Care in the 1990’s. % (2.6mmol/L) Saaddine JB: Ann Intern Med. 136: 565-574, 2002
University of Pittsburgh Medical Center The Challenges of Providing Access and Quality • 19 hospitals/ 200 primary care practices • 90,000 patients with diabetes • 90% diabetes care provided by PCPs • Poor adherence to guidelines • Lack of integrated technology • Daily decisions made by patient • Poor access for education and nutrition • Undefined relationships to the community
Objective • By implementing a model for health care delivery we could: • Gain health system support • Demonstrate improvements in clinical outcomes, A1C, BP and Lipids • Demonstrate reimbursement for services • Expand number of resources in communities
Health System • UPMC board initiative • Presentations to leadership • Pittsburgh Regional Initiative for Diabetes Education (PRIDE) • Patient/Provider/Community Community Health System Resources and Policies Organization of Healthcare Self-Management Support Delivery System Design Decision Support Clinical Information Systems Prepared, Proactive Practice Team Informed, Activated Patient Productive Interactions Functional and Clinical Outcomes
Community • Resource Identification • Focus groups with providers and patients • Community leaders • Local physicians • Government Functional and Clinical Outcomes
Decision Support Evidence Based Guidelines • ADA Medical & Education Standards Functional and Clinical Outcomes
Clinical Information Systems • Paper Charts • Excel spread sheets • Laboratory feedback • Electronic Medical Records • Management systems
Clinical Information / Decision Support • Instituted ADA Guidelines • Physician education • Regional programs • System seminars • Integrating CDEs into practices • Office staff education • Clinical information • Continuous feedback • Comparative reports to peers
