Spring 2015 then annual. • Secondary care snapshot audit– Admissions to hospital with COPD exacerbation process and outcomes at 30 and 90 days. Organisation and Resources over data collection period. Spring 2014 & 2016. • Pulmonary rehabilitation snapshot audits – Service quality and patient outcomes over 3 months. Includes resources and organisation. Jan 2015 start. Repeat 2017. • PREM – One year development work exploring the potential/feasibility for Patient Reported Experience Measures to be incorporated into the programme in the future. • Patient identifiable data linked across the workstreams and to external sources such as HES and ONS
Measures - Process and Outcome • Primary care e.g. compliance against NICE standard- diagnosis confirmed, smoking cessation, annual review, referral to PR, correct treatment etc. • Secondary care e.g. Essential investigations and interventions in first 24 hours, integrated discharge. • Pulmonary Rehab e.g. Compliance with BTS standards, completion, better QoL, improved exercise capacity. • Mortality, Hospital Stay, Readmission.
UK COPD Audit Progression • 1997 36 hospitals process and outcomes • 2001 30 hospitals process/outcomes + organisation and resources • 2004 94% all UK Trusts (as per 2001) • 2008 98% of all UK Trusts process/outcomes + resources and organisation + patient experience + primary care record • 2010 Euro Audit of hospital care & resources

Over Time • Some resources have increased • Wider service provision But • Little evidence of improved processes But • Length of stay reduced • Readmissions have increased • Mortality remains high
What Have We Done Differently? • Acknowledge QI is key • Establish a QI group • Look for links with external organisations • Emphasise to participants the QI opportunities • Suggest QI options to participants • Engagement, engagement, engagement! ‘Make it as easy as possible to do the right thing for the patient’
Engaging with Professionals • Radical Message • Kept simple (but with significant range of consequences) • Balanced with the good • Something that appeals to professionals and patients alike • Strap line – ‘Who Cares Matters’ • Supported by National Professional bodies
Engaging Commissioners • CCG/LHB Level Reports- what do you want to see? • CCG engagement (e.g. via CCG Champion Networks of partner organisations) • Identifying CCG priorities • Targeted messaging • Benchmarking against NICE standards • Potential for peer review (e.g. accreditation of Pulmonary Rehabilitation)
National Engagement • All Party Parliamentary Group on Respiratory Health • NHSE Domains • NHS Wales – Policy leads (NCA; Respiratory; Primary Care; Adult & Children’s Health) • National Respiratory Director • NHSE – Head of Patient Experience • NHSIQ
Engaging Patients and Carers • British Lung Foundation • Including network of Breatheasy Groups • Patient involvement groups – professional bodies (e.g. RCP PIU) • The plain English version • Conferences and newsletters • And in an ideal world patient access to their own data!
Summary • Reporting of data has limited impact • Acknowledging QI is critical element at outset • Having a QI strategy • Engaging key parties • We have no resource or contract to deliver QI • Over to you- Health Quality Improvement Partnership
