Institute of Medicine: Crossing the Quality Chasm
The problems come from poor systems … not bad people
“In its current form, habits, and environment, American health care is incapable of providing the public with the quality health care it expects and deserves.”
National Academy Press 2001
The perfect storm
• Cost of practice is rising
• Administrative burden is growing
• Pipeline of primary care supply is drying up
• Aging and burned out primary care work force
• Employer based primary care– Docs have more time with patients
• Best practice guidelines/protocols• Emphasis on health and wellness, prevention• Disease management for any with chronic conditions
– Improved access with worksite facilities– Refer to “high performance network of specialists”– Integrated EAP/chemical dependency
• Zastrow RJ, Quadracci L. Engaging Quad/Graphics Employees in the Improvement of Their Health and Healthcare Journal of Ambulatory Care Management, 29(3), 227-231
Quad-med results• Health care cost increases limited to 6.8%
during the last five years
• With Quad-Med, Quad/Graphics spends 17-20% less than Midwest average
• Superb HEDIS and employee satisfaction scores

Execution:TheIMP
Method
A wealth of
actionable data
• A Family of (Free) Patient/Employee/Person Assessment and Feedback Tools that:– Determine “What Matters”– Determine “What is the Matter”– Determine Preventive Needs– Determine Care Experience– Feedback Personalized Information
that Supports Additional Actions
• A Family of Reporting Tools for Practices and Hospitals that:– Automatically Summarize and
Compare Responses– Offer Customization Options
Key lessons from IMP
• Significant improvement doesn’t have to come at the cost of heavy lifting
• Simple HIT drives measurement and improvement
• Data becomes a platform for adoption of best practices
