1 Towards a New Model of Delivery of Care What can we do Different to Provide Better Delivery of Care? Algis Jovaisas, MD,FRCPC Division of Rheumatology University of Ottawa
2 Current Modelsurrent Private solo / group practise with /without own infusion center Academic sites - with/ without own infusion centre Patients may go to multiple different sites as their Meds change different Patient Support programs, contact person etc May be very different patient/physcian experiences s Meds or Staff change
3 Current frustrations 1. Change meds change support program access person, infusion site, 2. delay in access to change of Meds 3. Not all infusion sites, programs equal for many reasons 4.Fragmented Clinic Networks Patient,Rheum. Perspective 5.MTX teaching, TB testing, vaccinations, SC Injections( 30 % pts do not self-inject )
4 oone possible Strategy to Consider New national strategy of clinics 1. High standards of infusion location, access,administartion 2. one stop shopping for both patient and Physician from deciding on treatment option to access,paperwork,patient support,education that is independent of what Med is chosen, the same standard for all truly one simple route of access. 3. Provide pt. teaching, drug, disease, possible access to other AHP, MTX teaching, TB testing, Vaccination administration, drop in SC admin. As well as IV infusion 4. High degree of collaboration and work with Industry to streamline processes for all Provide a win win situation which is critical for success!

16 Key Ingredients to manage patient care safely Need a one-stop-program to manage reimbursement, patient logistics and product (Shoppers CARE) Need a distribution center to manage national cold chain product (Hubs) Need specialty pharmacy capable to dispense and compound biologics Need partnered specialists to supervise product administration, act as advocates for the patient.
17 17 Example of Product Storage The shelf-life of DRUG ABC is 24 months Store DRUG ABC refrigerated at 2ºC to 8ºC (36ºF to 46ºF) Keep the product in original carton until time of use to protect from light Do not freeze / do not shake Once the solution has been diluted Store at room temperature / protect from light Complete infusion within 6 hours of preparation
