17 SAMPLES Facts Preoperative blood reserve Circuit early diagnosis of cervical cancer Automatic shipping of discharge reports to primary care Implementation of the rule for early detection of infection with sepsis Reduction of CXR applications in preoperative protocols First Sepsis algorithm implementation in Spain. No other hospital has been able to implement such a complex process Nurse satisfaction 95%. Nurses are more than 50% of the organization. Annual cost turnover of nurses could cost at least 1.7M 37.2% of physicians modified their CPOE thanks to Multum: Meds Adverse Events Each MAE cost arounds 3000 euros Triage time improved to 9.2 min. Medium ED LOS 6.48 hrs

18 NURSING: EXAMPLES OF QUANTIFIABLE BENEFITS Benefit Contents Millennium Contribution Impact Amount Hours/year FTE Discharge All discharged patients have a 50% of the report's 5 Minutes per 11, report nurse discharge report content is generated automatically report Integration Continuity of care between Single database per 15 Minutes per 11,728 2, departments patient discharge Total 2.26 Some pending to measure: Reduced variability in nursing practice Wound care plans: 100% of patients Forms: documentation Reduction of the time dedicated to documentation and tasks of little added value Medications: requisitions and fills Diets: requisitions FirstNet Tracking Board (ED) Allows to know the patient workload and severity in real time Records related to quality Falls Pressure ulcers Urinary tract infections Some difficult to measure: It has allowed to assimilate the increase of work without increasing the staff or reducing quality It facilitates the incorporation of new providers The system itself guides the new providers It improves the quality and safety of care Circle of quality: measuring is first 'Now we know what we do and how we do it' There is an apparent effect of decrease in quality: now we document more and better, and detect incidents that were not previously recorded.

19 PHYSICIANS: EXAMPLES OF QUANTIFIABLE BENEFITS Benefit Contents Millennium Contribution Impact Amount Cases Hours /year FTE Remote visits Interconsultations and remote Structured clinical 10 Time per visit 116,562 5, follow-up visits. %5 of following information available reduced from 15 ones. anywhere, at any time. Protocols integrated in the system. to 5 minutes Documentation Continuity of care between Single database per 10 Minutes per 11,728 1, areas. patient. discharge Documentation Operating Room Integration of monitoring devices 7 Minutes per major surgery 8,608 1, Total 2.27 Some pending to measure: Single database Continuity of care for post-resuscitation patients Vital signs can be contextualized in the hospital, requiring less interconsultations Requests (referrals) with structured clinical information Demand management support Implementation of process guides in the orders Integration of the prescription with Gaia Avoiding a visit to Primary Care Remote home connection for providers on-call remotely Minimum response time Reduced physical presence time Some difficult to measure: Process-oriented management Solutions help to define them Reduced variability in clinical practice Facilitates coordination of care between levels Remote visits Anesthesia: pre-ops Neurology, checks Cardiology, Endocrinology

20 CLINICAL DOCUMENTATION: EXAMPLES OF QUANTIFIABLY BENEFITS Benefit Electronic Medical Record Some pending to measure: Coding: Discharge and minor surgery Scanning and document integration 100,000 documents per year 50% consents Non-integrated results, documents from other hospitals Integral documentation control Batch index (ECG, Cardiotocography, Urodynamics) Patient and third-party requests 4,000 per year Contents The medical record is not paper-based Millennium Contribution Impact Amount Hours/year FTE Cerner Millennium 4 Minutes per 193,718 12, is the EMR movement (discharges, consultations, and minor surgery) Cerner Millennium 5 Minutes per major and 14,994 1, is the EMR minor surgery Message Center 5 Minutes per report 6, Coding Availability of all electronic clinical information Discharge report Discharge report is sent automatically to the Primary Care Physician Total 8.19 Some difficult to measure: Requests for passive archive When requested, they are digitized and incorporated into Millennium

21 MORE SAMPLES Preference cards Costs per process Stock reduced by 35% 500,000 Financial cost reduced by 34% 15,000 x 5 years = 65,000 Auto verification RIS-PACS 24-hour pharmacist is not required 4 pharmacists Avoids physical support 116,872 x 2.5/study x 5 years = 1,460,900 Tx X-ray rule Avoids pre-operative X-rays in patients under 60 years of age without pathologies that require them Effect on costs Effect on queue management Blood bank Time X-rays Cost (euros) Total (euros) avoided 84 days , year , years 4, , Multi-phase plan for pre-operative Cancellations due to lack of blood have decreased Time between order and surgery has decreased Cervical cancer Alert in case of alarming result Reduced gynecologist visit time Automated sending of letters in case of normal results

22 AND MORE Availability to schedule from any part of the Department (not only the hospital) The patient can make an appointment from any location, avoiding travel time Centralized request system High specialization is not required for scheduling appointments Simplifies the management of human resources: Higher efficiency due to higher versatility Allows providers to schedule appointments Allows establishing complex scheduling processes, making several people responsible Multi-phase PowerPlans In multi-appointments various people can schedule appointments (by area) without requiring a specialization in this type of complex appointments: Agenda Structuring Spaces according to priority Schedule care structures, not people (i.e.: spine disease agenda, not Dr. C) Saves time and travelling for users Versatility and flexibility when assigning personnel Improved demand management: Prioritization according to clinical criteria Simplifies the referral request by Primary Care Does not require 24-hour hospitalization admission Admission for emergency surgery by the surgeon himself. Simplifies complex appointment scheduling Medical transport management Third-party referral management Fast detection and reaction in the event of problems Reduced OR cancellations Clinical information related to the appointment Feedback in real time allows to react quickly in the event of incidents

23 INDEX 1. Introducing Denia s Health Department 2. ROI study fundamentals 3. ROI samples 4. Conclusions

24 Conclusions (our experience) Cerner Millennium s implementation project ( ) We are using the same MILLENNIUM version since 2009 When we opened the hospital in 2009 many users, especially physicians, had a bad opinion about the design of the system, they weren t confident in the tool The Clinical Transformation Office (2010) When users get involved in driving the system with the Clinical Transformation Office they checked that the tool should be used to help them to do their job better applying a crossover vision to workflows When this inflection point was achieved, this implied from the organization perspective that some processes were improved HIMSS Level 7 ( ) This was not a direct target for our company, but it was achieved as a consequence of this change in our ways of working Process improvement and ROI (2012 and so on) Currently is the basis for the CTO s internal philosophy and prioritization We can work this way because we can measure We can measure because we have the tools and the criteria to do that from the patient perspective, from the professional perspective and from the company perspective Same company, same tool, same people, different organization, different culture,, different results

25 Conclusions (our experience) Marina Salud chose the Cerner Millennium solutions because of their ability to provide clinicians with the information needed to improve patient care on all care venues in the healthcare network: at the hospital, at the health centres and at home. This innovative approach to healthcare services overcomes traditional limitations such as data duplicity and information inconsistencies; as well as to serve as a healthcare model to all of Spain.
