1 PCMH Workshop Transforming your practice May 2, 2014 Presented by: Ashley Johnson EHR Training Team Coordinator and Susanne Madden The Verden Group Patient Centered Solutions

2 Welcome! Agenda Setting Up Your PCMH Project Successfully What OP Can Do for You: Pre-Validation Points, Report Bundle, Roadmap Working Through the Standards OPMH Reports Bundle Overview What s coming for PCMH 2014?

3 Why NCQA s PCMH Model? 2014 The Verden Group

4

5 Focus of NCQA s PCMH Standards Emphasis on patient-centeredness and patient experience of care Reinforces incentives for meaningful use (HIT) Focuses attention on aspects of primary care that improve quality and reduce cost Based on advances in evidence and changes in practice capability 2014 The Verden Group

6 Before You Begin Your PCMH Project 2014 The Verden Group

7 Determine What Points You Already Have (You May be Halfway there Already!) 1. PCMH Tools What tools or services are available to help you more easily achieve NCQA recognition? 1. NCQA Pre-validated Points? What pre-validated points may be available? Vendors can receive pre-validated points from NCQA to share with their clients. This means that for any points pre-validated, you do not have to submit documentation for those factors. 2. Are You Doing MU? If so, there are many MU areas that also qualify for PCMH points The Verden Group

8 What does OP have to offer? OPMH Reports Bundle OP User PCMH Roadmap (Detailed Overview later in the Workshop!)

9 PCMH Pre- Validation 7.75 Auto- Credits

10 Get Educated! Understand the requirements and concepts: Understand the purpose Read the Standards thoroughly Take the trainings (online or in-person) Visit practices who are already medical homes and network to learn best practices The Verden Group

11 Run Through The Elements and Factors Use the Standards Workbook as checklist. Run through each item and identify: Do we already do this? - If yes, do we have a written process? - If not, add a write up to the to do list If no, what do we need to do to adopt a new process to meet the factor? You will be able to quickly hone in on the areas where you will need create new processes and/or adjust current workflow 2014 The Verden Group

12 PCMH Checklist Have a checklist of PCMH action items Make it a team effort; you can not transform a practice alone

13 Make Sure Everyone Is On-Board Get buy in across the Practice Form a PCMH team comprised of (depending upon size): - A physician champion for each location - A nurse / clinical manager - An office manager Train the members of your PCMH team Share information across the practice and keep EVERYONE informed There is never a good time to do this (only the right time - can you afford to wait?) 2014 The Verden Group

14 Taking a Look at the 2011 Standards 2014 The Verden Group

22 PCMH2D: Use Data for Population Management Documentation required to satisfy: Reports or lists of patients needing services generated within the past 12 months.

36 PCMH6C: Continuous Improvement 1. The practice must have a clear and ongoing quality improvement strategy and process that includes regular review of performance data and evaluation of performance against goals or benchmarks. 2. Review and evaluation offer the practice an opportunity to identify and prioritize areas for improvement, analyze potential barriers to meeting goals and plan methods for addressing the barriers. 3. The practice sets goals and establishes a plan to improve performance on clinical quality and resource measures (Element A) and patient experience measures (Element B). USE the Quality Measurement and Improvement Worksheet for all three criteria 2014 The Verden Group
