  4. What has worked well? • Registry linked to QI plan • Part of a larger process (Care Model) • Team approach • Provider champion • Targeted measures • Avoids “bloat” • Data are evaluated, and then used • PDSA Cycle • Plan for growth • EMR/EHR implementation • Linking CDEMS to EMR/EHR data

  5. About Patient Registries - AHRQ • Understanding what a registry is and why they are useful is essential to success • Registries differ from EHRs / EMRs • STRENGTH in disease management / reporting • Available resource: “Registries for Evaluating Patient Outcomes: A User’s Guide” • Published by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) • Handbook for creating, operating and evaluating registries • In simple terms: What are good registry practices? • Citation: Gliklich RE, Dreyer NA, eds. Registries for Evaluating Patient Outcomes: A User’s Guide. (Prepared by Outcome DEcIDE Center [Outcome Sciences, Inc. dba Outcome] under Contract No. HHSA29020050035ITO1.)

  6. Registries “Then and Now” 1974 – E.M. Brooke, in a 1974 publication of the World Health Organization, describes registries for health information as “a file of documents containing uniform information about individual persons, collected in a systematic and comprehensive way, in order to serve a predetermined purpose.” 2007 – AHRQ describes a patient registry as “an organized system that uses observational study methods to collect uniform data (clinical and other) to evaluate specified outcomes for a population defined by a particular disease, condition, or exposure, and that serves one or more predetermined scientific, clinical, or policy purposes.”

  7. Part 1: Registry Planning • Key Questions: • What’s the purpose of the registry? • Who are the stakeholders? • What’s the scope and target population? • Is it feasible? • The registry team and advisors should be selected based on expertise and experience. • Plan for registry governance and oversight • Data access • Publications • Change management (EMR use, someday)

  8. Part 2: Registry Design • Focus on the major purpose of the registry • Keep it practical, and achievable • Data elements: • What data elements are absolutely necessary? • Which are desirable but not essential? • Where can the data be found? • Are existing data available for import into your registry?

  9. Part 3: Registry Buy-In • Buy-in effects the overall quality of the data and whether or not the data are used • What are the goals? • What are the incentives? • California Clinics Receive Funding to Enhance Chronic Disease Care, Using Electronic Registries • From the California HealthCare Foundation:http://www.rwjf.org/qualityequality/digest.jsp?id=8002&c=EMC-ND142 • Online Registry Improves Diabetes Care in Kansas • From HealthCare IT News: http://www.nxtbook.com/nxtbooks/medtech/hitn0608/#/16 • WV FQHC received federal funding for CDEMS use

  10. Part 4: Data Collection & Quality Assurance • Quality data (and meeting your goals) depends on proper registry structure, data definitions, user training and problem solving • Points to consider: • Data collection • Data cleaning • Data storing • Data monitoring / reviewing • Reporting
