  5. Learning Assessment • A learning assessment is required for CE credit. • A question and answer period will be conducted at the end of this presentation.

  6. Introduction/Terms • Increasing emphasis on interprofessional collaboration for improving health care quality • Interprofessional education (IPE) is a means to prepare professionals to engage in such collaboration • WHO definition of IPE: “Two or more professions learning with, from and about each other to improve collaboration and quality of care.”

  7. Background • IOM’s 2001 Report- “Crossing the Quality Chasm: A New Health System for the 21st Century” • Health care redesign Preparing the workforce Interdisciplinary training among health professions • WHO 2010- “Framework for Action on Interprofessional Education and Collaborative Practice” • WHO recognizes “interprofessional collaboration in education and practice as an innovative strategy that will play an important role in mitigating the global health workforce crisis.” • Nearly universal support from professional organizations for IPE

  9. Background • IPE Collaborative practice Optimizes health services and improves health outcomes • Evidence for improved: • Access to health services • Chronic disease outcomes • Patient safety • Appropriate use of clinical resources • Also a decrease in: • Hospital admissions, length of stay, hospital complications • Clinical error rates • Mortality1-5 Reeves S et al.

  10. Collaborative Practice and the Triple Aim • Healthcare Triple Aim1 as the overarching framework to fix the U.S. healthcare system: • Quality • Cost • Experience • IPE/Collaborative practice interwoven in all three aims

  11. Problem • Widespread, systematic implementation of IPE has not yet occurred in the U.S. • “A quick scan of most health professions schools today reveals a collection of siloed educational structures, working in parallel with little dialogue, integration, or collaboration between them.” -B. Brandt and M. Earnest • More success in other countries • Previously documented structural, cultural, organizational, and interactional barriers to IPE Earnest M, Brandt B. Aligning practice redesign and interprofessional education to advance triple aim outcomes. J Interprof Care. 2014 Nov;28(6):497-500

  12. The challenges • Integration of longitudinal IPE activities within primary care training sites • Evaluating IPE curriculum effectiveness to prepare professionals to engage in collaborative practice

  13. Evolution of IPE Evaluation • IPE concepts around since 1970s • Linked to healthcare delivery and outcome improvement processes • Resurgence of IPE initiatives in response to the Affordable Care Act

  14. Evolution of IPE Evaluation • Prior evaluation of IPE activities largely based on learner self-assessment of: • Attitudes towards other professions and IPE activities • Readiness to work collaboratively in a healthcare team • Intent to practice in an interprofessional setting

  15. IPE Competencies • 2011 IPE Collaborative Core Competencies • Based on WHO definitions of collaborative practice • 38 competencies within 4 domains of IPE

  16. The Age of Milestones • ACGME Family Medicine Milestone Project • Developmentally-based assessment of demonstrable attributes and behaviors throughout residency training • Linked to domains essential for family medicine physician competency

  17. Our Story • Who we are • Our IPE Curriculum • Our evaluation methods

  18. North Memorial Family Medicine Residency Program • A University of Minnesota residency program, 10-10-10 • Affiliated with a community hospital • Broadway Family Medicine, our clinic, is located in North Minneapolis • Patient-Centered Medical Home • Longstanding interprofessional culture preceding the era of IPE initiatives

  19. Staff • Faculty • MD and DO physicians • Clinical pharmacists • Behavioral medicine (LMFT) • NP • Residents • MD/DO • PharmD • Behavioral health interns

  20. Other Staff • Care coordinators (LICSW, RN) • Triage RN • Various students from different health professions programs

  21. IPE Initiatives • Team meetings • Care plans • Student pairings • Resident pairings • Video recording

  22. Interprofessional Team Meetings:Avenue for multidisciplinary input on the integrated physical and mental health needs of complex patients. • Purpose: 1. Learn and practice a biopsychosocial approach to patient care 2. Increase learner ability to provide interprofessional care to increase quality and continuity of care 3. Provide opportunities to practice new skills: • Conducting a family meeting • Motivational interviewing or counseling skills • Structuring a medical visit 4. Provide time for substantive case discussions: • Increase understanding of “whole person” in context • Assess relationship with patient • Develop treatment/interactive approaches • Evaluate treatment effectiveness

  23. Participants in Team Meetings • Include: • 4 Resident teams (7-8 residents per team) • 1-2 MD faculty • 3 Behavioral health (mental health) faculty (LMFT, LICSW) or Intern • 1 PharmD faculty and/or resident • 1 Triage nurse (occasionally) • 1 Care coordinator • 1 Patient advocate • 1 Front desk staff (occasionally) • Patient • Family • Community support (PHN, social worker, etc.) • Observers (students)

  24. Who are “Team Patients”? • Team members bring patients that are “complex”: • Multimorbidity • Mental Health diagnoses • Any combination (biopsychosocial) • Communication problems • “Dreaded” patient • Uncertain diagnosis or treatment plan • “Practice” interactions • Need for collaborative care between multiple providers

  25. Team Meetings • Logistics: • Each team meets one morning per week from 8-8:40 am followed by team clinic until noon • 30-45 minutes: Case discussion and consultation with team members; debrief/updates from last team patient visits • 3 hours: Patients seen by any combination of team members (each resident given one 40 minute slot for a “team” patient)

  26. Care Plan Team

  27. Interprofessional Paired Visits • Designed as a developmental step to prepare learners to collaborate effectively as a team • Ultimately, this will happen asynchronously (warm hand-offs, etc.) in the real world • First learners need orientation to the other professions’ strengths and assets • First step is a paired visit with 2 learners from different professions learning “from, about, and with” each other during real patient encounters

  28. Student Interprofessional Pairings • Started in 2009 • Pair students on 2 half days a week • Previously evaluated change in attitudes towards IPE with pre and post questionnaire • Readiness for Interprofessional Learning Scale • Validated questionnaire • Overall, positive attitudes towards IPE both before and after paired visits

  29. Resident Interprofessional Pairings • Started in 2010 • Pair residents on 1 half day a week • Initially MD and PharmD residents, now including behavioral health interns • Previously evaluated: • Individual feedback and perception of value • Amount of contribution to patient care tasks by each team member as viewed by other member • Shared decision-making by team during visit1 1. LounsberyJL, Moon JY, Prasad S. Assessing collaboration between family medicine residents and pharmacy residents during an interprofessional paired visit. Fam Med. 2015;47(5):397-400.

  30. Video Review • A/V capabilities in clinic to capture patient encounters • Used originally to assess individual family medicine resident communication and exam skills during quarterly video review with faculty • Videos captured of paired interprofessional (IP) visits to evaluate both team and individual performance in IPE competencies

  31. Current Evaluation Process • Development of an evaluation tool to assess IPE competencies during video review • Ideal tool attributes: • To have demonstrable behavioral anchors for assessment of IPE competencies within each domain • Can assess both individual and team performance in relation to IPE competencies • Can be used both for formative team feedback and longitudinal tracking of an individual learner’s progress with IPE competencies

  32. Example Video of a Paired IP Visit • Assess effectiveness of visit, team dynamic, patient-centeredness, IPE competencies: • Values/ethics for interprofessional practice • Roles/responsibilities • Interprofessional communication • Teams and teamwork • During video think about evaluation strategy • Team and individual evaluation? • Formative and summative evaluation capabilities?

  33. Discussion • What do you think of the paired visits? • Comments on IPE curriculum? • Suggestions or challenges in evaluating IPE competencies during video review process? • Next steps
