How an intelligent device can cut the mustard Dr Julian Brown
What Was Meant by This? • Succeed • Come up to Expectations • Provide High Quality
Obviously I must Have Been Good ? • 2006 • +201% •
The Story • 2006: I became our PCT Prescribing Lead. • My Surgery was highlighted as having significantly high admissions for diabetes. • My Surgery was terrible. • They sent me to Chicago. • I decided to create an IT solution • www.diabetesmanager.org.uk
The Result • Went from one of the worst to the best in 1 year. • No insulin initiations. • Reduced Admissions. • Reduced overall spend • Best HBA1C control 2009
What Had We Done? • Performance Tracking • Risk Stratification • Integrated Care • Self-Management Plans • Patient Access
Performance Tracking • Accurate Benchmarking of how the surgery and PCT is performing on clinical markers. • NICE • QOF • How we were performing in terms of outcome data. • How we were performing in terms of cost.
2. Risk Stratification:Identification of High Risk Patients Six types of High Risk Patients • 1. Those that have poor end-point data. • 2. Those that have deteriorating end point data. • 3. Those that fail to have screening • 4. Those who are not on or not collecting appropriate medications • 5. Those that are on inappropriate medications.
2.High Risk Patients:a. Poor End Point Data • The System will automatically create weekly league tables by each parameter.
2.High Risk Patients:b. Deteriorating Scores • Looking at flux of endpoint data helps identify patients earlier.
3. Integrated Care: Sharing the eHealthcard • Secure online for ease of access by: • GPs • Other HCPs • Patients
3. Summary Reports • Allows quick overview of patient • Allows pre-diabetes clinics • Allows remote clinics • Allows compliance issues to be identified.
3. Patient Self Management Plan 7 essential steps for diabetes perfection. • Blood Pressure Control • Blood Sugar Control • Cholesterol Control • Weight Control • Healthy Lifestyle • Medication Compliance • Regular Screening
Self-Management Plans • Encourage Patients. • Educate Patients. • Essential in achieving long-term diabetes control. • Reduce complications. • Reduce costs. • Makes the Patients Happy
How did diabetesmanager work? • Web based application. • Automated Data Extraction from GP systems • Remote performance tracking of all diabetes patients. • Automated self-management plans for every patient. • Allows online access for patients • Allows online education and remote specialist clinics.
Why Not Apply the Same Logic to Medicines Management • 7% all emergency admissions medicine induced • 60% of these preventable • Each one costing average £5000
Surgery Portal • Identifies at risk patients • Updated Weekly • Confidentiality Maintained • Surgery Has Control
Preventing Emergencies • Identifies the Patients who don’t come to see us. • The ones that manage to get themselves on drugs that are dangerous for them. • The ones that aren’t taking their protective medications. • QOF!
Better Integration • Patients • Practice Diabetes Nurses • GPs • Specialist Nurses • Podiatrists • GPs specialist interest • Consultants • Commissioning Leads • Medicines Management • online, webinars , emails, reports • Communication!
The Future • Better outcome for patients • Better education of patients (autotranslationetc) • Increasing Self-management • Reduced need for medications. • Easy patient alerts • Easy patient tracking • Better outcomes for HCPs. • Reduced Emergencies. • Reduced Admissions • Better project and formulary compliance. • Better use of services. • Identification of GP Surgeries needing extra resources. • Better education • Online referrals
This can become a thing of the past! • Microvascular • Neuropathy • Retinopathy • Renal Disease • Diabetic ulcers • Macrovascular • Heart Attacks • Strokes • Peripheral Ischaemia • Diabetic Ulcers
And more importantly – it transforms Patients • Janet • She used her selfmanagement plans & diabetesmanager.org.uk for 12 months
To this one! • Same patient after 12 months using her self-management guide • www.diabetesmanager.org.uk • Time for live demo
Does this Cut The Mustard? • 2009 QIPP arrived • Quality • Innovation • Prevention • Productivity • The Future of the NHS • £20 billion Savings
