Questions?

Acknowledging the challenges with utilizing EIS in an LC format

• Brand new service category• Limited data • Standards of care do not include measurable indicators• Intervention contains non-clinical/social components

What We Know: The 4 Buckets of Early Intervention Services (EIS)

• HIV Counseling and Testing

• Linkage to Care

• Referrals

• Health Literacy

Applying the NHAS Indicators to EIS

NHAS Indicator 4: Increase percentage of newly diagnosed person

linked to HIV medical care within one month of their diagnosis to at

least 85%.

NHAS Indicator 5: Increase the percentage of person with diagnosed

HIV infection who are retained in HIV medical care to at least 90%.

NHAS Indicator 6: Increase the percentage of persons with diagnosed

HIV infection who are virally suppressed to at least 80%.

Steps to selecting an EIS Quality Improvement Project

Step 1: Select an NHAS indicator.

Step 2: Select one of the buckets of EIS.

Step 3: Identify small-scale projects.

Step 4: Conduct PDSA.

Plan

The PDSA Cycle

1. Clarify your Objective

2. Make a prediction

• Formulate theory

• Objective + specificity

3. What is to be done

• Who

• What

• Where

• When

• How

50

Do

The PDSA Cycle

1. Carry out the plan

2. Document your

observations

• Expected

• Unexpected

3. Begin analysis

Act

The PDSA Cycle

1. Adjustments

• Changes to previous test?

• What adjustments?

• Expand last cycle?

2. New cycles

• What are you planning?

• What are you going to test?

53

At the Beginning, Test on a Small Scale

• “What change could you implement by next Tuesday?”

• Use the “Rule of 1”:

• 1 facility

• 1 office

• 1 provider

• 1 patient

Applying PDSA

54

Scale Down the Time Frame

• Years

• Quarters

• Months

• Weeks

• Days

• Hours

• Minutes

Drop down two

levels! (years to

months, weeks

to hours)

Applying PDSA

55

Keep the First Tests Simple

• Volunteers at first

• Useful, not perfect, data

• Use “huddles” to report

Applying PDSA

56

Build Each Cycle on Its Predecessor

“The shorter the timeframes between test cycles, the more tests can be conducted and therefore, more opportunities for learning will emerge.”

Key Points

The PDSA Cycle:

• Helps “test your hunches”

• Adapt these changes to your own

environment.

• Start small

• Lead to more complex cycles
