SE MN Beacon Immunization Goals • Assess current processes of vaccine administration and documentation • Collect baseline vaccination rates and assess improvements • Conduct gap analysis • Provide recommendations for improvement for population health
Phase I: Gap AnalysisDecember 22 , 2010 – March 14, 2011 • Identified baseline metrics using Health Information Technology (HIT) across SE MN practices • Mayo Clinic Rochester (MCR): • Used Point of care decision support system to identify patients with chronic conditions • Provided decision support for providers for adult patients who need vaccinations during any visit in practice • Used population management system to identify population of patients who are due for vaccinations for a primary care practice • Integrated the process with state registry comparison

Gap Analysis Method • Winona Health and Mayo Clinic Rochester identified all asthma and diabetic patients (age 18+) who have not received influenza vaccine in 2010 (MCR = 18,700 and WHS = 1,881) • Local records compared to MIIC database and found: • 910 Winona Health System eligible for influenza vaccine (Letters sent on 2/4/2011) • 5996 Mayo Clinic (Baldwin Family Medicine, Baldwin Primary Care Internal Medicine, Kasson Clinic, Mayo Family Clinic NE, Mayo Family Clinic NW) • Letters sent from MCR starting 2/10/2011 in a staggered manner • Letters sent by Winona in Feb 2011 • Monitoring and tracking vaccine improvement will continue through March 16, 2011

Results of Letter Intervention Provider 1 Provider 2
Gap Analysis • Identified 120 pharmacies in SE MN, only 14 participate in MIIC • Pharmacists who administer vaccination are required to notify primary care MD but may not report to MIIC; fax information to MD • Some pharmacies do not participate in Mark of Excellence training programs and may not report to MIIC • Corporate pharmacy policies direct vaccinations to corporate office (difficult to separate the 11 county area)
Gap Analysis • Unclear who reports to MIIC at open flu clinics; Need exploration of employer flu clinic processes • Unclear of processes in schools, day care, long term care etc • Reporting delays impact point of care • Explore duplicates in population aggregate
Issues Identified • Need to reinforce MIIC/SEMIC database enhancement & utilization as central repository for vaccination data to manage SE MN Beacon population health • Develop plan to address duplicates in population aggregate • Need further study needed in direct entry into MIIC and impact at the point of care • Review tracking and real time management of immunizations using SEMIC
Issues Identified • Conduct process mapping of process work flows in retail pharmacies, day care, employer flu clinics etc and determine needs for data exchange from other sites of vaccine delivery and reporting • Define proactive practice intervention workflows for high risk population in need of vaccine • Explore SEMIC repository data access via other modes of electronic access (i.e. iPhone, iPad, etc)
SE MN Beacon Immunization Initiative A patient story …. A gentleman called WHS re the letter his wife had received. He informed that his wife had been in a long term care facility in Winona for over a year now. He was confused as to why she had not been given a flu vaccine when they both got them every year. I checked her records, and informed him that she had not in fact gotten her vaccine. The gentlemen couldn’t believe that she was under the watchful eye of a doctor, and yet she hadn’t received her yearly flu vaccine at long term care facility. Husband took the letter to LTC and requested that she be vaccinated ..
