Sustaining Visionary Leadership in Patient Safety and QualityImproving Health and the Value of Health Care Jeff Selberg Executive Vice President and COO Institute for Healthcare Improvement Washington State Hospital Association 79th Annual Meeting October 13, 2011
Philosophy We strive to improve health and health care by: • Motivating and building will for change with hope and optimism • Innovating and identifying new models of care • Ensuring the broadest possible adoption of leading practices through a philosophy of “All Teach All Learn.”
IHI Believes In: • Transparency • Improvement science • Effective leadership • Creating a safe and just environment for patients, families, and staff • Highly functioning teams • Patient centered care • Designing care with the patient involved…
What Outcome Are We Aiming For? To improve health and the value of health care.
Three Aims • Advancing Population Health • Improving Experience of Care • Controlling Per Capita Cost

A Success Story (Sort Of?) Intermountain Healthcare
What Intermountain Learned • Most hospital admissions for a specific treatment had similar characteristics • In contrast, Intermountain found massive variation in physicians’ practices • Declines in variation were associated with large declines in costs, and clinical outcome quality remained Source: James B. Savitz L. “How Intermountain Trimmed Health Care Costs Through Robust Quality Improvement Efforts.” Health Affairs. June 2011. 30:6
An Example • Dr. Alan Morris led a project to smooth out variation in ventilator settings for patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome at LDS Hospital. • Dr. Morris blended an evidence-based clinical guideline into the flow of work (checklists, order sets, clinical flow sheets) to make it a normative default. • In a group of the most acutely ill patients, the rate of guideline variances went from 59 percent to 6 percent; patient survival went from 9.5 percent to 44 percent; physicians’ time commitment fell by half; and the total cost of care was reduced by 25 percent.

But, IHS Lost Money For Their Efforts “…providers today are paid precisely for those care delivery episodes that quality improvement seeks to reduce. As we improved, the resources to drive further change disappeared.” Source: James B.

Transforming the Delivery SystemIs Payment Reform the Basis of 2nd Curve Innovation?
Goals of Payment Reform Miller, Harold. How to Create Accountable Care Organizations, 2009
Accountable Care Organizations Miller, Harold. How to Create Accountable Care Organizations, 2009
Better Care for Individuals • Better Health for Populations • Lower Per Capita Costs
Are you on the 2nd Curve? • Upward Pressure • Data Variability • Demographics – Chronic Disease • Appreciation for a System – Clinical Process • ACO Viability • Response • Political Pressures (Lobbying) • Market Consolidation • Emerging Models: ACO • Public Confidence (?) Adapted from The Second Curve, Ian Morrison 1996 Models
Elephant in the Room Is this really innovative? i.e. Kaiser Permanente Geisinger Health System
Why Isn’t This Model Scaling? • Public perception about systems of care? • Physicians and group practice? • Payers?

MIT Media Lab John Moore, M.D. The doctor-patient relationship is deteriorating. Today’s information technology solutions are exacerbating the problem by perpetuating paternalistic decision-making and episodic care. CollaboRhythm is a technology platform that enables a new paradigm of healthcare delivery; one where patients are empowered to become active participants and where doctors and other health professionals are transformed into real-time coaches. We believe that this radical shift in thinking is necessary to dramatically reduce healthcare costs, increase quality, and improve health outcomes.
