Transforming Primary Care in Teaching Practices

1. Transforming Primary Care in Teaching Practices Kevin Grumbach, MD UCSFDepartment of Family and Community Medicine

2. Don Berwick, Jonathan Finkelstein. “Preparing Medical Students for the Continual Improvement of Health and Health Care: AbrahamFlexner and the New ‘Public Interest.’” Academic Medicine 2010 “As “incorporating science into practice” was the primary form that a new social need took for Flexner, so should “incorporating system improvement into practice” be the response to the emerging social need 100 years later… The new social context requires preparation of physicians to thrive in systems of inescapable interdependence.”

3. Berwick and Finkelstein:A Proposed Core Competency • “Leading, following, and making changes in health care: Understanding how to function in, and to lead, teams, and to organize and participate in intentional change.”

4. Primary Care Transformation and the Imperatives of: • Systems • Teams • Improvement

9. How can change be created in complex adaptive organizations?

10. It Takes a Team to Make Primary Care Work

11. A primary care physician with a panel of 2500 average patients would spend: • 7.4 hours per day to deliver all recommended preventive care (Yarnall et al. Am J Public Health 2003;93:635) • 10.6 hours per day to deliver all recommended chronic care services (Ostbye et al. Annals of Fam Med 2005;3:209)

12. It Takes a Team • Select the players and assign positions • Design the plays • Practice the plays

13. Share the Care10 building blocks of high-performing primary care Tom Bodenheimer, MD, MPH Center for Excellence in Primary Care (CEPC) Department of Family and Community Medicine, UCSF

15. Are we serious about teamwork? "It is naïve to bring together a highly diverse group of people and expect that, by calling them a team, they will in fact behave as a team. It is ironic indeed to realize that a football team spends 40 hours a week practicing teamwork for the two hours on Sunday afternoon when their teamwork really counts. Teams in organizations seldom spend two hours per year practicing when their ability to function as a team counts 40 hours per week.” Harold Wise et al. Making Health Teams Work. Ballinger Publishing Co, 1974

16. Where Have I Heard This Before… • Systems? • Teams?

17. What’s Different This Time? • Business case and value proposition • Reframing: • From the fringe to the cutting edge

18. Evidence base on health care teams Studies of general practices in England demonstrated that better teamwork and team climateare associated withbetter processes of care for patients with diabetes, and better continuity of care, access to care, and patient satisfaction. Stevenson et al. . Family Practice 2001;18(1):21-26. Campbell et al. BMJ 2001;323:1-6.

19. Evidence base on health care teams At Kaiser Permanente in Georgia, primary care teams with higher “collaborative clinical culture” scores had superior patient outcomes, including better patient satisfaction and better control of diabetes and hyperlipidemia. Roblinet al. Presented at Academy Health Annual Meeting, 2002.

20. San Francisco Share the Care PC Model

21. Reform of SFGH FHC Model • 4 geographic practice teams • ~2,500-3,000 patients per team • Residents on 3 of 4 teams • New team leadership structure • FM faculty + FNP/PA + RN • Accountable for team performance • Team level patient panel • Team level PI metrics • Stable faculty clinical supervision

22. Implications for Education

23. Challenge to the Medical Education Culture Followers Implementers Team Players • Leaders!!! • Innovators!!! • Individualistic, CompetitiveBrilliance!!!

24. Challenge to Family Medicine Culture George Saba et al. The Mythology of the Lone Physician: Towards a Collaborative Alternative. Ann Fam Med (in press).

25. From “Me” to “We” • “We will need to assemble systems in which physicians can build satisfying work relationships with staff and patients and feel supported in sharing responsibility for health outcomes. In place of the currently dominant “silo” training, we will need to foster interprofessional education about collaborative communication and team building skills. Expectations for role, competence, satisfaction, and success will need to change.” • G Saba et al., The mythology of the lone physician.

26. 2005

27. AHRQ Report • “The delivery of recurrent team training across all segments of the health care community is, at present, haphazard. Few structural or procedural mechanisms exist to ensure that it continues at regular intervals…Simply stated, medical team training must be instilled and reiterated at every stage of a care provider's career.”

28. Who is way ahead of us in investing in team training? • Aviation industry • Crew Resource Management (CRM) • Military • Tactical Decision Making Under Stress (TADMUS) • Team Dimensional Training (TDT) • San Francisco 49ers

29. AHRQ Primary Teamwork Competencies

30. Resident Developmental Stages and Share the Care Model • Do you have to master it before delegating it?

31. Competency:Systems Based Practice • Knowledge of systems • “a set of interrelated elements or components, interacting to achieve some shared goal” (Berwick & Finkelstein) • At many levels • Family systems • Microsystems • Health care system • Public health and community systems • Etc.

32. Competency:Systems Based Practice • Understanding how systems change • Facilitators • Barriers

33. Competence:Practice-Based Learning • More than just learning QI techniques • Sustained relationship and engagement over time with a practice and its workers and patients • Learners in authentic roles in care team • Learn it to share it

34. One Proposed Notion • Align UCSF Medical Student education with SF Share the Care Teams delivery system model • Vice Dean Catherine Lucey, FCM faculty Margo Vener, Beth Wilson, Bill Shore
