| Kaiser's Transition to an
Electronic Record aided by Statit piMD |
|
Kaiser Permanente is making a
significant investment in the development and
implementation of an electronic medical record (Health
Connect.) One by one, each of the hospitals in
Kaiser's Northern California Region has made, or is
scheduled to make, the transition to Health
Connect. The transition from care delivery
supported by forms assembled in paper medical chart to
care supported by an electronic medical record is no
small feat. Months of preparation and training,
bolstered by lessons learned from earlier 'Go-Lives'
culminated in a day that dramatically changed the
delivery of health care in the
hospital.

| Beyond OPPE: Effective Tools to
Manage Provider Group Performance |
There has been a lot of focus
in healthcare to meet The Joint Commission's OPPE requirements.
Statit Physician
Profile and Review (PPR) provides this capability,
but even more importantly, it provides tools for chiefs
to understand and monitor the performance of their teams.
Important questions when
assessing team performance:
Which providers are truly
performing differently?
How do I assess provider
performance when volumes differ so much?
How is my provider group
performing on the various performance
measures?
How can I easily slice and dice
performance data in different ways to identify
underlying performance issues?
How do I identify which
providers are not meeting targets on multiple
measures?
How do I keep my eye on
performance?

Designing and Rolling out
Effective OPPE Solutions a complimentary
webinar presented by
ASQ |
|
Midas+ Statit Solutions Group is pleased to sponsor
this webinar series which offers a real-time virtual
presentation that demonstrates how healthcare
organizations and professionals have applied quality
tools and practices to improve healthcare
delivery.
You'll want to view
this recorded webinar today! As most healthcare organizations
begin to address ongoing professional practice evaluation
(OPPE) mandated by The Joint Commission, there are many
obstacles as well as opportunities for rolling this out
successfully. Marion Yerxa will share her experiences
of developing / deploying Physician Profiling to meet
OPPE requirements and, even more importantly, helping
the chiefs understand how their teams are performing.
Discussion topics include:
- Development of different Physician Profiles for
different specialties
- Measures used within Physician Profiles will
change over time
- Experiences of working with the Chiefs to roll out
OPPE
- Thoughts / experiences of exposing physician names
to their peers for different indicators
- Involving Doctors early in the review process by
having them review their performance on the OPPE
measures before their Chief does and to have them
document any unusual performance for specific
measures. This holds the Doctor more accountable for
their performance and saves the Chief valuable
time.
