Agenda • Who are we? • How did we approach the pilot? • What are our goals? • Ecosystem Review • Workflow Review • Timeline
Who are we? • Clinicians/Owners/Thought Leaders • Common Technology Platform • OPIE is EMR for O&P
Who are we? • Clinics • Alabama Artificial Limb and Orthopedic Service • Fikes Brace and Limb • Gainesville Prosthetics • Limb Lab • Optimus Prosthetics • Syracuse Prosthetic Center • 15-20 Licensed, Certified Prosthetists • 10-20 ‘Functional Level Assessors’ • Quality Outcomes • OPIE Software
Approach • Core Problem • Medicare Requires: Quality Documentation from Qualified Provider • Typical ordering provider doesn’t/won’t/can’t create this quality documentation.
Approach • Relationship problem • Establish relationship with ‘Functional Level Assessors’ (Doctor, Physical Therapist, Physiatrist, PA, LNP, Clinical Nurse Specialist) • 2 referrals • Explain need for enhanced documentation • Explain how to complete required documentation
Approach • Technology problem • Use ‘new’ workflow and clinical relationship in manual setting. • Bring in technology ‘low hanging fruit’ • 3rd party HIH for connection to esMD Gateway • Consider a portal proof of concept for document exchange between concerned parties. • Beyond Scope: Provider Directory, Digital Signatures, Direct integration with Functional Level Assessor EMR
Goals (Primary) • Demonstrate usage of LLP eClinical Template in manual workflow • Effectively find and coordinate with functional level assessors? • Documentation meets CMS requirements? • Bundle documents as PDF and communicate with esMD Gateway
Goals (Secondary) • Create a portal proof of concept to facilate exchange of documents between functional level assessor and prosthetist. • Create a “closed network” system where all actors are known and validated through appropriate mechanism
Workflow Review (Highlevel) • Establish Relationship With Functional Assessors • Get 2nd referral from Ordering Provider where applicable • Conduct evaluations, compare results, do documentation exchange.
Milestones • 07/23 – Establish Participating Prosthetic Clinics • 08/15 – Establish Relationships Between Prosthetists and Functional Level Assessors • 08/15 - Establish Relationships Between Prosthetists and HIH for esMD connection • 09/30 - Process first patient’s through sequence • 10/30 – Wrap up Pilot
