What has been the impact of the FL Ped MH collab activities on your clinical and operational work this month (where 5=much easier and 1=much more difficult)?
What is the biggest barrier encountered? How did you overcome it (or not)? • Staffing changes. Will be training new staff on Medical Home and EMR • Scheduling our medical home patients (level 4) with specific providers and finding behavioral health resources for our families in need of those services. • Need more time/Time management • Expanding care coordination to all our complex patients • Difficult to do huddles every day. Trying in afternoon, rather than mornings. • Fine tuning/perfecting a care plan for our patients with complex needs • Completing all components of the comprehensive care plan. Met with staff to review importance. • Lack of an EMR. We’ve chosen one! • Not having a care coordinator and a patient registry. In the process of trying to get a care coordinator position approved in the budget. • Difficult to make it work having only a single parent partner. Recruiting for a parent council. • Residency program undergoing re-accreditation has been all consuming. Will be over in April. • Coordinating personnel, medical records and schedules for our upcoming move. Will be orienting/training everyone on our new EMR
Share something important that you learned… • Huddles have proven valuable. • Patients’ positive response in seeing the same provider at each visit. • How happy people are to give feedback. Staff/Parents like to be involved and they like to share their ideas. • Coordination between community organizations is key. • The local CMS team was very eager to meet with us and provide info on management and available resources. We will continue to meet! • Learned how to present the medical home concept as an efficient business model when care coordination is maximized. • That we have a great team, even being short staffed they all pulled together for care plans. • Care plans have been very useful and a very good way to summarize the office visit and follow up instructions with patients/parents. • There are many resources available to guide us in becoming a successful medical home. • Families appreciate information they can take home and read to learn more about our services or those we’re referring them to. • Switching completely to EMR is a lot harder and more time consuming than anticipated • Small changes can make a BIG difference.
What, if anything, surprised you…? • How much we are now relying on our care coordinator. • How organized the parents of medically complex children are. • That more physicians don’t use the resources available from the local CMS team. • Families visit the office just to speak with their nurse case manager, even though she is available by phone and e-mail. • That our ADHD follow ups are only 75% when I thought we would be at nearly 90%. • People work better with personal requests, motivation and communication. • We have more computer tracking capabilities than originally thought. • The patients like technology. They were excited to use the iPad. • The responses to the survey were overwhelmingly positive. • Parents thought a 15-minute wait time is too long. • Our patient population is rapidly expanding. • After reading the NCQA Standards and Elements, we realized our office has met at least one factor in each element.
