Benchmarks, Dashboards and Quality Indicators: ACGME Outcomes Phases 3 and 4 CORD 2010 Felix Ankel, Eric Perterson, David Griffen
Setting the StageFelix Ankel • Positioning EM Residency as a Strategic Asset • Goal is to develop a dashboard of outcomes for phase III and IV outcome project that is consistent with hospital quality goals
Setting the StageDavid Griffen • Overview of outcome project • Work so far • Importance and feasibility • Hospital and residency perspectives about outcomes • Outcomes are data to be analyzed and explained • Can we develop outcomes of resident/residency involvement and effectiveness in process improvement?
Setting the StageEric Peterson • Learning to speak “hospital” • Value = Quality/Cost • ED throughputs will be a reported outcome • Sample Residency Dashboard
DiscussionFelix Ankel • Advantages of positioning GME as a strategic asset • “Residency Quality Officer” = Assistant Residency Coordinator • Potential mixed messages to residents when looking at throughput times and patients per hour • Issues with attribution • Potential problems getting certain hospital data
Additional Outcomes • Pain management • Time to management, effectiveness of management • Peer-reviewed publications • Number of charts down-coded • Documenting re-assessment • pain • Interventions • Etc.
Idea • Create a longitudinal administrative curriculum over 3 years with specific goals, objectives, and evaluations. • Understand complex hospital systems • Process improvement
Concern • Big group concern is heterogeneity among residency programs. How do you compare quality measures across programs? • Maybe dashboards as external comparisons are not going to work right now. • All quality is local
Wrap-Up • Dashboards are here • CORD can take the leadership in developing dashboards for residencies • Practical reasons to align strategic priorities with our partners • Not yet ready for a universal dashboard • Sharing data • Develop menu of outcomes and sample dashboards • Collaboration
Next Steps • If interested please join the WIKI • Plan on sending out an invitation on the CORD listserve • Generate a discussion on the WIKI • Share data, outcomes and dashboards • Examples of outcome measures • Examples of dashboards • Bring back to CORD next year • Publication
