Outpatient Palliative Care Metrics
• Consultation Volume• Discharge Distribution/DC Reason• Readmission to Acute Inpatient Care– Referred from IPPC
• Readmission to Acute Inpatient Care – Without IPPC
![Page 18: IHS Palliative Care Project](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062521/568166ea550346895ddb3376/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Getting started
• Created the Palliative Care Affinity Group which includes inpatient and outpatient providers.
• Identified basic standards for PC programs– Definition– Interdisciplinary Team– Policies (based on National Consensus Project:
Clinical Practice Guidelines)
![Page 19: IHS Palliative Care Project](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062521/568166ea550346895ddb3376/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
PC Metrics – Why?
• Internal quality assessment
• External quality assessment (TJC Accreditation, public reporting, value based contracting)
• Research/Exploratory Quality Improvement Initiatives
![Page 20: IHS Palliative Care Project](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062521/568166ea550346895ddb3376/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Determining Metrics
• Identified PC metrics based on national standards – series of articles in Journal of Palliative Medicine
by Dr. David Weissman and Dr. Diane Meier from Center to Advance Palliative Care)
• www.capc.org
![Page 21: IHS Palliative Care Project](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062521/568166ea550346895ddb3376/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Metric DomainsOperational
• Does my program have the features required to provide high quality palliative care?
• What metrics do I need to measure in order to demonstrate my program has these cores features?
Clinical• Am I improving the clinical care of patients?
Symptom assessment scores, psychosocial assessment scoresCustomer
• Am I meeting the needs of patients and families?Satisfaction survey data: patient, family, referring clinician
Financial• Is my program fiscally responsible?
![Page 22: IHS Palliative Care Project](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062521/568166ea550346895ddb3376/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Project Manager• Committee Team

Project Technology
• Two established programs at Cedar Rapids and Des Moines
• Two Microsoft Access Databases– One backed by Microsoft Access– One backed by SQL Server
• Need for one Statewide Database across the Continuum of Care
![Page 26: IHS Palliative Care Project](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062521/568166ea550346895ddb3376/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Project Technology
• Involvement in Metric Development• Consolidation of Databases– Entry screens of one– Overall structure (SQL Server) of the other
• Security Issues with Statewide Database
![Page 27: IHS Palliative Care Project](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062521/568166ea550346895ddb3376/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Project Technology
• Involvement in Metric Development– Ensure database and entry screens are configured
properly– Work through what data needs pulled from other
sources versus entered manually
![Page 28: IHS Palliative Care Project](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062521/568166ea550346895ddb3376/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Project Technology
• Consolidation of Databases– Entry screens of one and structure of the other– TSI/EPSi Data
• Hospitalizations and Costs• Monthly Feed until all EPSi and Epic conversion is complete
– Horizons• Outpatient Metrics• Nightly feed• Medical Record Numbers are entered into Horizons for
linking
![Page 29: IHS Palliative Care Project](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062521/568166ea550346895ddb3376/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Project Technology
• Security Issues– Multiple Affiliates in one database– Both Inpatient and Outpatient in one database– Not an ACE (Affiliated Covered Entity)– Affiliate Personnel was developing and
maintaining the database– Need to be able to handle• Addition of affiliates - Peoria Methodist• Partners external to HIS - Hospice of Siouxland
![Page 30: IHS Palliative Care Project](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062521/568166ea550346895ddb3376/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Project Technology
• First Iteration– SQL Server data stored on the IHDM SQL Server– Access database in Network folder
• Issues– Data stored at one affiliate for multiple affiliates– Additional lock down of Access database wanted
![Page 31: IHS Palliative Care Project](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062521/568166ea550346895ddb3376/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Project Technology
• Second Iteration– SQL Server database that is maintained by IT– Access database accessed via Citrix– Utilized Access Runtime via Citrix to limit ability to
access design functions• Issues– Support model being worked through as IHS IT to
support Database– Need for Reporting Support
![Page 32: IHS Palliative Care Project](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062521/568166ea550346895ddb3376/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Project Technology
• Final– SQL Server database that is maintained by IT– Access database accessed via Citrix– Utilized Access Runtime via Citrix to limit ability to
access design functions– Patients can be viewed across the continuum– New Analytics Department in IT to support Database– Center for Clinical Transformations (CCT) to support
reporting
![Page 33: IHS Palliative Care Project](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062521/568166ea550346895ddb3376/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Report Developmentconvert data and information into knowledge
• Translate ‘word’ definitions into technical specifications
• Visually present what is happening• Trust and be confident with the results
![Page 34: IHS Palliative Care Project](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062521/568166ea550346895ddb3376/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Report Developmentconvert data and information into knowledge
• Data characteristics must be understood – necessary to define exact specifications
• Data must be accurate• Data must be complete
![Page 35: IHS Palliative Care Project](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062521/568166ea550346895ddb3376/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Report Developmentconvert data and information into knowledge
• Data are linked across tables or files by common fields.
• If data are wrong or missing, knowledge is lost.
![Page 36: IHS Palliative Care Project](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062521/568166ea550346895ddb3376/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)

Report Developmentconvert data and information into knowledge
• Provide reports that users can easily run to detect missing or inaccurate data
• Report staff run reports or conduct reasonableness check on data
• Design review/audit steps earlier, rather than later, in overall process
• Automate as much as possible – moving data introduces opportunity for error
![Page 38: IHS Palliative Care Project](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062521/568166ea550346895ddb3376/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Future Plans
• Automate metric report so it can be created internal to the system or via the new EDW and BI tools being developed.
• Look at alternatives to Access for entry (i.e. IQ4)• Add tabs in PC Report for PC Clinic, PC LTC, and
Hospice• Add clinical metrics in 2012 (pain, dyspnea, advanced
care planning)• Add customer satisfaction metric (patient/family,
referring provider)
