Creating New Teams?(3 things to remember) • Follow 7 guiding principles for building teams (will be shared in the next several slides) • Create partnerships/relationships that will make your teams successful • Use all available resources
Guiding Principles • Patient Flow • The flow of patients will help determine which organizations should participate together as a Collaborative team • High Risk Population of Focus (POF) • Patients with high safety risk and high risk of poor health outcomes that your team wants to make improvements upon • Teams partnered with a QIO will expand these efforts to the Medicare, Medicare Advantage and dual-eligible populations.
Guiding Principles 3. Primary Health Care Home • Health care home for patients in the defined population – this organization/ “home” is providing direct patient services • Should convene and lead the team • Should commit to tracking quality improvement results and assessing their progress throughout the course of the Collaborative
Who should a team represent? For a patient population, one of several organizations can operate as a “primary health care home” and be accountable for the continuity of care for the patient. Hospital Specialist Ambulatory Surgery Center FQHC, CHC, Rural Clinic, HIV Clinic Able to operate as a primary health care home Home Health Care Academia and State Based Organizations
Guiding Principles • Inter-Disciplinary Members on Teams Team Members • Pharmacists • Nurses • Physicians • Other primary care clinicians • QI staff • Administrators • Senior Leaders • Patients • More!!
Guiding Principles • Health Professional Academic Institutions • Partner with school or college of pharmacy, nursing, medicine and other schools and/or collaborate with one • Most successful teams have had academic partners • Team Commitment • Teams must commit to integrating medication management services • “It takes a village to move a mountain” • Senior Leadership Support • Seniors Leaders to champion the work of the teams
Create Partnerships • Create partnerships to “charter your teams” • Partnerships: • Add strength to teams • Help to leverage resources • Provide man-power and skill sets • Provides synergy “The whole is greater than the sum of it’s parts” - Aristotle
Create Partnerships • Look for community partners with aligned goals to improve patient safety and health outcomes • Seek partners with skills that would add value to your team and benefit from your collaboration
Thinking about your team • Teams are encouraged to partner with a safety-net organizations (ie: federally qualified health centers) • No minimum number of organizations needed to form a team • However, teams are encouraged to partner with at least one additional organization
How to start building your team – Where to look? • Local healthcare providers • 340B Entities • Health Professional Academic Institutions • Local Health Departments • ADAPs or other Ryan White Centers • Primary Care Associations • Local pharmacies (chains and independents) • Drug Manufacturers • State Offices of Rural Health • Quality Improvement Organizations • More!
