  1. Follow-Up and Treatment Subcommittee Proposed Priorities and Projects May 18, 2012 Carol L. Greene, M.D.

  2. Proposed Priorities • SCREENING PROGRAM IMPLEMENTATION • Learning from the past to inform future (recurring theme) • CLOSING GAPS IN SYSTEMS OF CARE • Focus on understanding process • REAL WORLD IMPACTS AND OUTCOMES • Focus on outcomes

  3. “Tabled” • Name change? • Not now, possible to revisit, reasons to add “quality” in title but reasons to keep “follow up and treatment” • Beyond NBS • Focus remains on some critical NBS questions, possible to revisit

  4. Overview • Lessons from the past to inform the future • Framing questions of interest and identifying sources of data (and gaps) • Coordination across existing projects and programs • Projects of intrinsic value selected and designed to be help/model for other conditions • Focus on issues with opportunity to add value to ongoing and newly developing programs • Next steps – after input from full Committee, workgroups are poised to start fleshing out projects

  5. Screening Program Implementation – Possible Case Studies/Projects Short and LTFU and treatment - what are/should be the metrics?* what are the costs? what is the impact on families?* Explore current and possible models. • Ongoing evaluation of critical congenital heart disease (CCHG) implementation • Hearing screening follow-up • Connecting point-of-care testing with DBS screening (perhaps using HIT) *examples – impact of FP, specific metrics focused on process and on outcomes, e.g. developmental outcomes in CCHD)

  6. Closing Gaps in Systems of Care - Possible Case Studies/Projects • Roles and responsibilities in LTFU • As part of case studies, include focus on learning what are the current (and variable) roles and responsibilities in LTFU for children with hearing impairment and sickle cell (disease or carrier). • Consider a focused case study of NBS results in the EMR and the EMR as a source of LTFU data • Challenges and opportunities in the changing health care environment • Request presentation (after SCOTUS decision) on impact of changes in care systems on children with heritable disorders

  7. Real World Impacts and Outcomes - Possible Case Studies/Projects • Explore the extent to which we can document improved clinical outcomes; whether we are realizing the potential of NBS. • Sickle cell as a “test case”: gaps between technology and disease mgt.; variability in SC trait notification and FU conditions; long history, rich data sources; multiple issues that are important for other conditions • Coordinate with ongoing work including HHS initiative • Focus on developing key questions questions and on understanding data sources to identify gaps • Consider options for overarching approaches and/or other case studies or comparisons that might provide guidance to FU for those in the panel or for those to come in the future
