  8. Accomplishments • Practice Engagement: All practices with an active Asthma QI committee, meeting regularly • Planned Care: All practices with practice flow analysis aimed at providing the right care, 100% of the time. Widespread use of standard encounter form designed for use with Eqipp. • Extensive availability of and adherence to 2007 NHLBI Guidelines. Increased use of spirometry. • Patient and family education protocols established in all practices .

  9. Optimal Care • Use of a validated instrument to assess control • Guideline adherence, i.e. “stepwise management” • Written Asthma Action Plan • Flu vaccine or recommendation (depending on the season)

  21. CQN: The Future for Ohio • Wave 2 recruitment planned to begin in the fall/winter of 2010. Kickoff early 2011. • New financial model • Financing for Ohio appears most likely to be payer supported • Existing practices hopefully will continue data collection. Incentives need exploration • System based activities possible in Cleveland and Columbus.

  22. “I think we are a perfect example of what the data can do to change physician behaviors on a practice-wide level.  We all THOUGHT we were doing a good job with asthma care (even the pulmonologists at Nationwide Children's had told us so) but it was obvious after our first months with the project that we could do better, and that there was a HUGE variation amongst practitioners within the practice. This project has made us look at some other aspects of care where we thought we were doing well, when indeed we have a LOT of room for improvement.” Bill Long MD, Pediatric Associates, Columbus Ohio
