How BCBSM is illustrating patient impact
6
The Present: We demonstrate impact via cost savings & percent
reductions in complications,
procedures, etc.
The Problem: This data isn’t intuitive to many
people. The Future: Also illustrate the number of patients
impacted.

How BCBSM is illustrating patient impact
Take information and rates tracked through the registry
Transform them into a story about the patients (problem, solution, impact, and results

Michigan Oncology Quality Consortium (MOQC)- Smoking Cessation
• Smoking cigarettes is harmful, and this is especially the case with cancer patients. A 2014 Surgeon General’s report found that patients who have cancer and smoke have an increased all-cause mortality and cancer-specific mortality, and additionally have and increased risk for contracting a second type of cancer (e.g. such as lung cancer). Therefore, lowering smoking rates is a high priority in this population.
• MOQC found that while smoking status was almost always included in a patient’s chart, only 44% of patients who smoked were advised to quit or referred to counseling. MOQC committed to changing clinical culture and practice patterns to ensure that every patient being treated for cancer who uses tobacco is identified and offered help.
• Since April 2013, 2093 patients were referred to the free Michigan Tobacco Quitline. 30% of these patients have remained tobacco free for at least 12 months. These patients have benefitted because:
– Cancer treatments, including chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery are more effective after a patient has quit smoking.
– Patients also have access to free nicotine replacement therapy (patch, gum, or lozenges) from the Quitline.

• When a patient is found to have a mass or other abnormality in his or her breast, there are multiple ways to obtain a sample from the mass to determine if it is cancer. There are two ways to do this:
– An Open Surgical Biopsy (OSB), where the majority of the mass, which can be a large amount of tissue, is removed from the breast.
– A Core Needle Biopsy (CNB), where a smaller sample or samples of tissue is taken from the mass in the breast with a hollow needle specifically to try to diagnose the problem rather than to remove the mass
• CNB is the preferred way to sample the mass, because it is accurate and safe, can be performed without anesthesia, and results in the patient having fewer overall surgeries. However, both methods are still used.
• Due to the work done by MiBOQI to reduce OSB through educating providers and providing feedback on rates of use, 398 patients have received a Core Needle Biopsy instead of an Open Surgical Biopsy from 2011-2013.
– These patients spent less time away from work, saved on direct financial costs, and could be confident that they received a safe and accurate procedure.

CQIs and Patient Involvement

Many collaboratives include patients and
family members; some have more
recently and others for quite some time!

Addressing Concerns about Involving Patients
• There have been no concerns expressed to the CQIs who currently include patient team members.
• Potential areas of concern:– Finding appropriate patient and family participants– Creating a team culture that is open and inclusive of these perspectives– Being able to speak freely at meetings

A Physician’s Perspective
16
“Having a patient voice at the meetings helps to keep a firm proxy during debates. No one can really argue with what the patient representative has to say. We are all here for patients, so this voice is in many ways the most important one in the room.” - Dr. David Miller, MUSIC Project Director

The Patient’s Voice
17
“An individual may be doing something a specific way and may not
realize that a minor change could have a significant impact on the
result. It is a great challenge and a very noble effort to make outcomes
for patients better. It becomes a coaching process with all benefiting.
Thanks for having me part of this interesting process.”
