PRIMER ON
QUALITY IMPROVEMENT AND
INTEGRATING MOCINTO MY PRACTICE
DISCLOSURE
I, Erik Stratman, MD FAAD have no relevant financial relationships with industry that are relevant to the content of this presentation
I am a Director for the American Board of Dermatology
OBJECTIVES
1. Define Quality
2. Describe Basic Methods of Quality Improvement
3. Describe Examples of In-Office Quality Improvement activities that could be relevant to dermatologists
4. Describe MOC-qualifying Quality Improvement activities for dermatologists
5. Describe how Patient Surveys and/or Peer Surveys can be used to trigger Quality Improvement Activities
WHY DISCUSS QUALITY?• Mission• Moral imperative for
• Our patient’s health• Economics
• Our patients• Our Clinic• Society
• Quality Improvement projects are part of MOC for dermatologists
QUALITY - DEFINED
The right care for the right person at the right time.
• Carolyn Clancy Medical Director AHRQ
QUALITY TERMINOLOGY
• Quality assurance – the process of ensuring compliance to specifications, requirements, or standards and implementing methods for conformance. (inspection, correction)
• Quality improvement – an organized structured process that selectively identifies improvement teams to achieve improvements in products or services (change process, improve outcomes)

• Quality improvement efforts need to focus on
• Minimizing variation in processes.
• Creating reproducible processes for reliable results

MARSHFIELD CLINIC DERMATOLOGY DEPARTMENT EXAMPLES OF RAPID CYCLE QI
• Psoriasis Comorbidities Screening and Primary Care Connection
• Prednisone Prescribing and Bone Protection Counseling
• Informing Primary Care Doctor of his/her patient’s new Melanoma Diagnosis
• Hand hygiene use among dermatologists and staff

EXAMPLE PDSA: PSORIASIS AND SMOKING
• Psoriasis + Smoking is bad cardiovascular risk
• We weren’t identifying which psoriasis patients smoke
• Baseline data = 21% smoking hx documented
• When we DID identify smokers, we weren’t providing those who smoke with resources to quit.
• Baseline data = Only once did we document providing smoking cessation information or counseling.

HOW IS THIS RELEVANT TO
MOC?
COMPONENT 4: PRACTICE PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT
Physicians are evaluated in their clinical practice according to specialty-specific standards for patient care. They are asked to demonstrate that they can assess the quality of care they provide compared to peers and national benchmarks and then apply the best evidence or consensus recommendations to improve that care using follow-up assessments.

FUTURE DIRECTIONS:
INSTITUTIONAL MOC(IMOC)
INSTITUTIONAL MOC
• Local relevance
• Lead time / Lag time
• Boards grant local institutions oversight of board-recognized approval for Component 4 MOC credit
• Institutions create quality project review process
(Quality Project Review Task Force, Quality Review Board, etc)
• *Not Time-Avoiding, just makes the work more relevant
KILLING 2 MOC BIRDS WITH ONE STONE
• MOC Component 4 currently has 3 requirements:
• Performance in Practice Assessment
• Patient Experience Surveys
• Peer Surveys
• It is acceptable to use an area of poor survey performance to trigger a performance improvement activity!

ASSESSMENT RECOMMENDATIONS
Quality Improvement Cycle: Plan, Do, Study, Act (PDSA)
© 2010 Marshfield Clinic. Quality Improvement and Care Management
Background and Situation Identify an opportunity for improvement. Provide baseline data if available.
Key Components Establish a precise aim (what is your goal, what is the timeframe –
i.e. “how good, by when?”). Set performance measure(s) for the project. Identify changes (actions) that will accomplish the aim.
Step 1: PLAN a Change
Identify the processes that may prevent you from reaching the aim. Collect and analyze data related to the project. Verify or revise the original “improvement opportunity” statement. Verify or revise the performance measure.
Step 2: DO – Try the Change on a Small Scale A. Develop Changes Generate potential changes that will address root causes of
any barriers to accomplishing the aim. Select a specific change or changes that can be implemented on
a small scale and tested quickly to see if it (they) work(s). Identify anticipated results from this change. Plan how you will carry out the change, when and who will do it.
This is your first change cycle.
B. Implement a Change Implement the change on a trial or pilot basis.
Step 3: STUDY – Observe/Evaluate the Results of the Change Gather data on the change. Analyze the data on the change. Was the change carried out as planned? Did you obtain the anticipated results? What new knowledge did you gain as a result of this change cycle? Use the “assessment” box to further explain the results of the
project, including “lessons learned.”
Step 4: ACT – Refine and Spread the Change List the actions that will be taken as a result of this change and
evaluation cycle. If successful, spread the change more broadly. Identify any systemic changes and training needs for full
implementation. Plan ongoing monitoring of the change. Continue to look for incremental improvements to refine the change. Look for another improvement opportunity. Use the “recommendations” box to further explain any
recommended actions, including “next steps” for this project.
The Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) cycle is part of the Institute for Healthcare Improvement Model for Improvement, a simple yet powerful tool for accelerating quality improvement. Once a team has set an aim, established its membership, and developed measures to determine whether a change leads to an improvement, the next step is to test a change in the real work setting. The PDSA cycle is shorthand for testing a change—by planning it, trying it, observing the results, and acting on what is learned. This is the scientific method, used for action-oriented learning.
