Using a Registry to Support Population ManagementDavid Van Winkle, MDExecutive Medical DirectorJen Bailey, MSN RNExecutive Director
Objectives • Review Clinical Integration Models • Understand system need for a registry • Registry Journey to Support Population Management • Understand and Address Drivers for Change
A PHO is a legal organization that enables its physician and hospital membership to work cooperatively toward accomplishing clinical integration. PHO’s who are clinically integrated also provide contracting services on their members behalf. PHO’s are formed and owned by one or more hospitals or physician groups. Lakeshore Health Network is wholly owned by Mercy Health Physician Hospital Organization
The History of LHN • Incorporated in 1994 • Over 520 physicians & advance practice providers, 3 hospitals, Ancillary Providers • Servicing Muskegon, Northern Ottawa, Oceana and Mason Counties • Support community collaborations to keep health care local. • History of Strategic Planning focused on the needs of the community with broad physician input and leadership • State and National recognition through • BCBSM • 2009 IHI National Forum Presentation • Trinity National Innovations Award • MSMS/MOA Conference Presentations • Professional Journal Articles
The process in which physicians who traditionally compete for business or contracts must work together to develop processes that result in improved outcomes for their patients or bring benefit to their community. These benefits can be in cost savings or in improvement in clinical outcomes. Clinical Integration
Chronic Care Model Patient Centered Medical Home-Network or Neighborhood Accountable Care Organization/Organized System of Care Models of Clinical Integration
Patient Centered Medical Highlights Joint Principles of the Medical Home • Personal Physician • Physician Directed Medical Practice • Whole Person Orientation • Care is Coordinated and/or Integrated • Quality and Safety are Hallmarks • Enhanced Access • Must be Supported by Payment Reform
Capabilities of a Patient Centered Medical Home • Patient Provider Partnership • Patient Registry with Performance Reporting Capabilities • Individual Care Management • Extended Access • Test Tracking and Follow-Up • Preventative Services • Linkage to Community Services • Self-Management Support • Patient Web Portal* • Coordination of Care • Specialist Referral Process

Network Success in Model Deployment Interdisciplinary practice team led by the PCP with improved patient engagement and education about their health care and options. Improving primary and specialty care interaction IT capabilities to record and track care and communicate to the patient Placing emphasis on patient self-care Expanding linkages to community health resources
The coordination of care delivery across a population to improve clinical and financial outcomes, through disease management, case management and demand management Population management also emphasizes effective patient self-management through member education and care support.

A computer system comprised of an application and its database that: Collects data manually or electronically Analyzes the data in various ways Reports the results of the data analyses Registries vary widely in their purpose, scope, functionality, technology, and cost A registry is not an electronic medical record An EMR is not a registry but may contain registry functionality What is a Registry?

Kubler-Ross: 5 distinct stages of grief, a process in which people deal with loss (i.e. transforming the health care delivery system) PCMN: Denial – we can do this with our current process & resources Anger – meetings, conference calls, new programs, changing roles, new staff, time commitments…we can’t do this Bargaining – this really isn’t a change, we can do this the old way Depression – project implementation, resource consumption, feeling overwhelmed Acceptance – process solutions, evaluate data, produce reports, improve outcomes, build team, build culture Emotional Response to Clinical Integration
Webster: Optimism is "an inclination to put the most favorable construction upon actions and events or to anticipate the best possible outcome". System Wide Change: Realistic Optimism - Structured Clinical Integration Implementation Plans, Dedicated Staff Resources optimizing training and roles, Acceptance of continuous process improvement, a journey not a destination. Emotional Response to Clinical Integration
This is change…big significant change impacting business operations and clinical practice How will you measure success? How do you know you are improving? What is your organizational or practice adaptive capacity? Effective Population Management and Registry Adoption Requires…CHANGE
Often the reason that we find change so difficult is because we want to change something, that we have never given enough disciplined and focused attention to, to understand why we have thought and behaved as we do. Why is Change Hard?
Change management is an approach to shifting/transitioning individuals, teams, and organizations from a current state to a desired future state. It is an organizational process aimed at helping change stakeholders to accept and embrace changes in their business environment. Change Management
Dilt’s Idea Of Logical Levels The Environment around us, shapes and is shaped by our Behavior. Behavior is determined by our Capabilities, which are set by our Beliefs and Values, which are defined by our Identity. Everything we do, the circumstances that we gravitate to, in our lives are a reflection of who and what we are. Lasting and meaningful change only happens when something changes in the way that we see and think of ourselves. The Science Behind Change
The bigger problem of change comes when we decide other people need to change and try to persuade them to see the error of their ways or manipulate them to change to what we think they should be. For Lasting Change, A Person’s Sense Of Identity Has To Change If you are seeking to change other people, or corporate cultures, then you need to first look at the underlying beliefs of the people you are seeking to change. Understand and respect how they see themselves and how they want to see themselves. The Science Behind Change
Adaptive Leadership Definition: The practice of mobilizing people to tackle tough challenges and thrive It is not necessary to change. Survival is not mandatory. -W. Edwards Deming (1900 - 1993)
Adaptive Leadership • Specifically deals with change that enables the capacity to thrive • Builds on the past, rather that jettison it. • Organizational adaptation occurs through experimentation • Adaptation relies on diversity • New adaptation generates loss • Adaptation takes time
Adaptive Leadership “Leadership is the process of bringing a new and generally unwelcome reality to an individual, organization or setting, and helping them successfully adapt to it. -Ronald Heifetz
Adaptive Leadership Distinguishing Technical problems from adaptive challenges Technical problems may be very complex, but they have known solutions, that can be implemented by current know-how. Responds to traditional leadership approach. Adaptive challenges can only be addressed through changed in people’s priorities, beliefs, habits, and loyalties. Requires adaptive leadership approach.
Adaptive Leadership The Illusion of the Broken System. Any social system (including an organization, country, or family) is the way it is because the people in that system want it that way. No one who tries to name or address the dysfunction in an organization will be popular.
