Performance Improvement in Public Health Learning Session #2:Performance Management in Public Health 101
Welcome and Introductions • Brief description of Learning Sessions • Brief introduction of those participating • Overview of Live Meeting process including muting, accessing handouts, and asking questions
Learning Sessions Planned: • Previously: Wisconsin PH Improvement Initiative 101 • Today: PH Performance Management 101 • 5/16/2011: PH Quality Improvement 101 • 5/23/2011: PH Accreditation 101
By the end of this session you should be able to: • Describe public health performance management model and how this fits existing practice. • Access additional information and resources for learning.
Learning Objectives • Gain understanding of the components of a performance management system (is there a reason why the acronym for this is PMS??) • Identify at least three benefits of performance management • Provide examples of how public health is using PM to better health outcomes in WI
What Is Performance Management? • The practice of actively using performance data to improve the public’s health. • Can be carried out at any level simultaneously (e.g. individual, program, organization, community, state) • It sound complex, but it’s actually quite simple
Don’t look now but… If you are establishing or identifying performance standards (aka targets, goals), measuring and tracking performance (aka progress), reporting progress, and using quality improvement to manage change and improve you are practicing performance management!!!
Conceptually, this is what PM looks like? SHP 2020, Grant Requirements, National Performance Standards, PHAB, Etc. Examples Improved Health Outcomes Quarterly Reports, Annual Reports, Grant Reports, CHIP Updates, etc. 5 Whys, PDSA, CQI, QI Plan, etc.
Examples of PM in PH • Community Health Improvement Plans (CHIP) • Strategic Plans • Workforce Development Plans • Program Work Plans • Restaurant Inspections • Customer Satisfaction • PHAB • GAC
Why PM in PH? • To make better informed decisions. • To allocate and prioritize resources. • To improve policies and processes. • To increase accountability and responsibility. • To reduce duplication of efforts. • To clearly communicate to the public and partners through clear reporting. • To get to outcomes!
Performance Standards • … is a generally accepted, objective standard of measurement against which an organization's level of performance can be compared. • Can be descriptive (e.g. LPHA is actively involved in review of policies) or numerical (e.g. at least 80% of…) • Answers the question, “where should we be?”
Performance Standards in PH • National standards • PHAB Standards • Preparedness Performance Measures • State specific standards • HW2020, Grant or contract objectives • Benchmarking against others • County Health Rankings • Agency specific targets • Typically when no industry benchmark exists, LPHA will establish a target.
Performance Measurement (where are we?) • …is the regular collection and reporting of data to track work produced and results achieved. • … measures something! Identifies what we are going to measure and the process for which to collect the data (e.g. SMART objectives) • Answers the question, “where are we?” – you are systematically tracking and measuring something!!!
Examples of Performance Measurements • Systems Level • HW2020 objectives • PHAB Measures • TRAIN • Organizational Level • Strategic plan scorecards • CHA • Department wide database • Program Level • HealthSpace, SPHERE, WIR, ROSIE, etc.
Reporting of Progress • Are we presenting the right information? • Tie it to your performance measurements • Are we presenting the information in the right way? • Avoid jargon; create clear, easy to read, understandable reports • Are we reporting information at the right time? • Establish frequency; timing is everything!
PH Examples of Reporting • Annual Reports • Media efforts • Website • Journals • Stakeholder meetings • CHIP Plan • Year End Contract Reporting
Quality Improvement • Is only 1 component of a PM system • ... is the purposeful change of a process or program to improve the reliability of achieving an outcome • May focus on one aspect of performance (customer satisfaction) or cut cross entire agency / system (budgeting processes). • Does not need to be complicated!!!
PDCA of QI • Plan what to accomplish over a period of time and what needs to be done to get there • Do what is planned • Check the results of what was done to see if objectives were achieved • Act on the information
Putting it together • Performance Standard: 1 epidemiologist on staff per 100,000 population served • Performance Measure: # of trained epidemiologists on staff from a 4 year accredited universities • Reporting: A Workforce Report indicates we have 1 epidemiologist per 300,000 population served • Quality Improvement: using a QI technique, we determine that the root-cause analysis for this is … AND we decide to …
PCHD Example • Performance Standard 8.2B: Assess staff competencies and address gaps by enabling organizational and individual training and development opportunities • Performance Measure 8.2.1 B: # of staff that have completed annual performance evaluations and develop improvement / training plans • Reporting: annual employee sat survey indicates that 80% of staff have completed PE • Quality Improvement: Conduct root cause analysis to find out why we are not at 100%. Findings: need a software system to help track and remind.
Challenges and Tips • We are still learning and defining • Getting started • Finding the time • Staffing • Getting organized • Collecting the wrong data • Absence of standards and benchmarks • Burnout
Examples from the Great One! • Terry Brandenburg, West Allis
Performance Management (Dutch translation: foreign concept) is not a buitenlands begrip We conduct aspects of performance management in everyday practice: • Consolidated Contracts • Annual Reports to governing body / general public • Community Health Assessments (CHAs), Community Health Improvement Plans (CHIPS) • Justify Annual Budgets
However: We don’t practice performance management comprehensivelyWe often do it only under duress

Two Examples of Applying Performance Management in a Local Health Department: • QI only: Postpartum Newborn Home Visits • Performance Management: Reduction in Smoking in Pregnant and Post-partum Women enrolled in WIC
Performance Measurement “How are we doing?” Quality Improvement “How can we make it better?” Goals Plan Act Objectives QI Plan Measures Strategies Check Do Performance, Yes Performance, No Performance Measurement / QI System
Post Partum Newborn Visits AIM: By September 1, 2010, the Community Health Services Division will establish protocol for a newborn / postpartum initial visit
QI Example – Postpartum Newborn Home Visit QI focus – staff selected and led by staff Practiced using QI tools – 5 whys, flow charts, fishbone diagrams New policies and procedures developed New forms and brochures developed Piloted new procedures Inserviced staff
