The Patient-Centered Medical Home in the Transformation From Healthcare to He...Paul Grundy
Surgeon General of the Navy VADM Matthew L. Nathan, MC USN
Fortunately, we have a way to address this crisis—the
Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) model launched at Naval Hospital Pensacola and Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, Bethesda, Maryland (formerly the National Naval Medical Center) in 2008. It is now being implemented throughout the Military Health System (MHS) and carries great promise. It provides the clinical framework we need to meet our strategic objectives in terms of quality of care, impact on costs, population health, and readiness. One of the most significant benefits of the team-based, collaborative approach is that it allows us to embed within a primary care environment the psychologists, nutritionists, tobacco cessation specialists, mind-body medicine therapists, and health educators our patients need in order to develop and maintain mindful, healthy behaviors—along with the “mental armor,” our active duty military personnel need to increase their operational effectiveness and their resiliency in bouncing back from stressful situations. As we move ahead with this more comprehensive approach to health, we can begin to better address so many of our patients for whom we can find no specific reason for pain and discomfort. The PCMH model also provides a positive impact on our costs. Early data reporting from the PCMH clinics at Bethesda show reduced visits to the emergency room, lowered pharmacy costs, and significant per beneficiary per year savings and improved Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set metrics, access, and patient satisfaction and trust. These positive impacts on the bottom line can be applied directly to improved costs or toward the reallocation of resources from reimbursing those who are sick to the population health-based programs that can make and keep our patients healthy.More significant, however, the PCMH environment allows us to go beyond mere collaboration and to a much more proactive approach to managing our patient populations. It is within the context of the medical home that we can begin to surround our patients with the tools and resources they need to move them from health care to health.

Key Sections:
1) Rightsizing after virtual visit explosion
2) Changing clinical trials
3) Easing physician burden with digital
4) Healthcare forecast for 2021
5) Reshaping health portfolios
6) Resilient and responsive supply chains
7) Inter-Operability
Polls show overwhelming evidence that patients WANT to be involved in their medical records and health data, so they can partner with their clinicians for better health. Survey results from Society for Participatory Medicine 2014 and 2015 surveys.
Patient engagement is viewed by many to be a critical component of achieving safe healthcare. The question becomes how best to engage all patients - the public - in the effort towards increasing safer healthcare practices. Other prevention efforts have effectively engaged the public in achieving significant cultural shifts in attitudes and actions. The campaign to decrease smoking is one such example. For instance, anti-smoking efforts have made it unacceptable to smoke with your children in the car. The efforts toward increasing patient safety could benefit from the lessons learned in the anti-smoking campaigns.
At the end of the session patient/family champions as well as health authorities will leave armed with best practices, resources and ideas on how to open the door for patient/family engagement with health authorities and how to make the most of the time together.
Antimicrobial resistance is one of the biggest threats to human health and is rising to dangerously high levels in all parts of the world. Anyone, of any age, in any country, could be impacted. While it's normal for microbes to develop resistance to drugs, the way antimicrobials are currently being used is accelerating the process, and as a result common infections and minor injuries are becoming an increasingly greater threat to our well-being. Organizations from across the world are taking action and making progress on this issue, but is there anything patients, their families and patient advisors can do to help?

1. Choose 5 partnerships to engage and explain why you would invite each of these people//organizations to be a part of the coalition.
The creation of community health promotion and education programs takes into consideration several agencies or parties who help in the achievement of the desired health goals. Each of the partners will address its roles using different approaches depending on their area of expertise. This is an important factor to consider as different institutions address health promotion using different approaches and perspectives. The overall outcome from the contribution of every partner should be able to restore and promote the physical, emotional, spiritual, psychological, and social wellness of the community in relation to the health issue being suffered (Minelli, & Breckon, 2009). Chronic diseases are currently the leading causes of death in the community due to their complexity and the severe effects on human health. The community health promotion and education program will be provided by the ‘Health Concerns Coalition’ which will be made up of the following partners; community religious groups, Cancer Supportive Care Foundation, an association of cancer-survivor patients, nutritional organizations, and the local authority.
1. Cancer Supportive Care Foundation – This is an important part of the coalition as it will offer technical expertise in education and diagnosis of chronic diseases. The foundation team will include medical experts who will diagnose the community members of any chronic illnesses. Examinations for diseases such as breast cancer, prostate cancer, diabetes and blood pressure will be conducted by this partner as they will provide modern machines needed for the diagnosis of chronic illnesses.

Unprotected sexual intercourse among teens is one of the major negative health behaviors in the current society. The sexual intercourse among teens has predisposed teenagers to sexually transmitted diseases and early pregnancy. The rate of intercourse among the teenagers has been on the rise and this raises eyebrows on the intervention strategies that need to be adopted in reducing the behavior among the teenagers. The major reason why the health behavior has been on the increase is due to influence by the media and lack of information among the teenagers. It is therefore important to address the problem before it becomes a major disaster in the society.
The behavior of intercourse is problematic to the society. One of the factors that make it problematic is how the teenagers are predisposed to sexually transmitted diseases. Most of the teenagers are not informed on the health dangers of their behaviors and end up risking their lives. Some of the sexually transmitted diseases are very dangerous and could lead to death such as HIV/AIDs, which means that if the health behavior is not taken care of, then more teenagers are expected to die. It is therefore important that the behavior is paid the attention that it deserves before the mortality rate resulting from the behavior increases (Li, 2009).
There are a number of predisposing, reinforcing, and enabling factors that influence unprotected sexual intercourse among the teenagers. One of these factors is the media. The media has played a major role in influencing sexual intercourse among teenagers. Nowadays, the media brings programs that even show the people having sexual intercourse. Since teenagers always want to experiment what they see, they will want to try it out, leading to unprotected sexual intercourse. With the introduction of internet and smart phones, teenagers nowadays can watch anything and since it is difficult to filter the content from the internet, it becomes impossible to control what the teenagers are watching. The other PRE factor considered to increase the prevalence of unprotected sexual intercourse among the teenagers is lack of information about sex by the teenagers. Even though many teenagers are exposed to the internet and other sources of information, they do not have information on how to practice safe sex. The parents are also shying away from educating their children, an aspect that makes the teenagers oblivious of the dangers involved in practicing unprotected sex. Most of the teenagers practice unsafe sex since they do not know the health dangers involved. Some of them think that pregnancy is the only thing that should be avoided during sex not knowing that there are other many health dangers that can be avoided by having safe sex ...

Summary of Skills
For the development of an organization to be successful and effectively achieve set goals and objectives, strong management and organization skills will be required (Bateman & Snell, 2007). Our Team A brings a broad spectrum of skills and talents coming from life, educational and work-related experiences. Each member of the team possesses unique skill sets that will bring fresh ideas, techniques and creative solutions to challenges in the development of our consulting firm.
A thorough evaluation of our team member’s skills, suggests that our key strengths lie within teamwork and dedication, creating presentations, critical thinking, problem-solving techniques, communication, research, and observations. With these skills, this team will be able to successfully achieve most tasks necessary in the development of a consulting firm. This team will need to use these skills to collaborate efforts in a cooperative manner to create, plan, develop and accomplish the goals of the consulting firm. This evaluation also portrays a strong dedication to learning and improving which is beneficial in the development of new skills that may be needed.
Most members of our team currently have educational and professional experience that proves an intense desire to improve and advocate change and educate communities to collaborate an effort enhancing the lives of individuals. This desire will effectively promote positive changes both within communities as well as at a societal level. The team’s overall commitment is to meet basic human needs through education, focusing on identification of challenges and prevention, as well as assist in overcoming personal and organizational obstacles that individuals may face. Our team is committed to improving the overall quality of life through advocacy and action.
The first type of consulting firm that we could possibly work with would be a human services/independent living consulting program. This program would collaborate with a client’s care givers, doctors and independent care organizations to assist in facilitating a client’s independence and improve or maintain health. This consulting firm would collaborate efforts to create an independent, long-term care plan that will enhance the develop of daily living skills, educate on services and programs available, exercise the right to make healthy living choices, and encourage pro-active involvement of all care-giving professionals in the pursuit of personal growth, presence, and participation in the long term care process. This program will improve and emphasis respect and dignity through the promotion of independence.
PLEASE ADD THE OTHER TWO TYPES HERE!
The types of problems these consulting firms might solve.
Inflexible regulatory and legal issues create competitive obstacles human services providers face when offering health services to communities.

2. Executive Summary
The fall of 2019 marked the start of a partnership between Cornell Project 2Gen and the Orange
County Resilience Project. The Project is led by Cornell Cooperative Extension Orange County
and includes a wide range of community leaders across sectors like healthcare, mental health,
and education. The Resilience Project seeks to increase awareness of Adverse Childhood
Experiences (ACEs) and improve support for Orange County families. The partnership between
Cornell and the Resilience Project brings research and evaluation expertise to bear on the
Project’s diverse and innovative efforts to address childhood toxic stress in Orange County. As
part of this work, the Fall 2019 2Gen Scholars cohort researched best practices for cultivating
resilience through a wide range of professional avenues: healthcare, education, and evaluation.
Healthcare: Talking with Orange County pediatricians, 2Gen Scholars found varying levels of
knowledge regarding ACEs. They also discovered that many pediatricians are unaware of local
behavioral services available for children exhibiting symptoms of toxic stress. Scholars
recommend that professional development for Orange County doctors include education about
ACEs and that a directory of resources should be compiled for pediatricians to reference when
making referrals.
Education: 2Gen Scholars were impressed with the numerous steps Orange County’s Port Jervis
School District has already taken to become more trauma-informed. One of the district’s
programs, zero-hour physical education, is an understudied intervention with exciting potential.
Existing case studies of the intervention look at schools in towns that differ from Port Jervis in
important ways. Scholars recommended continued research on Port Jervis’ program, as it offers
an exciting opportunity to learn more about the intervention’s effects in a different context
from prior work.
Evaluation: 2Gen Scholars used data from the Orange County Measure of Awareness and
Impact survey to analyze ACE awareness in Orange County. They found that following
screenings of the film Resilience, community members were generally well-informed regarding
ACEs’ effects on children’s health and behavior. Scholars recommend the Resilience Project
track its progress in other ways, as well. Referencing the work of other coalitions, they provide
examples of potential metrics and strategies for effectively communicating progress to
stakeholders.
Cornell Project 2Gen looks forward to continuing to work with the Resilience Project to
promote well-being for children and families in Orange County. To learn more about us and our
work, visit http://www.2gen.bctr.cornell.edu/ or email us at project2gen@cornell.edu.

4. ACE Awareness and Treatment Practices in Orange County
Over the course of the project we have been in contact with multiple pediatricians and
researched a multitude of interventions used to treat and prevent ACEs across the country.
Contact information was initially found through the Resilience Project Working Group excel
sheet. Those contacts then connected us with other pediatricians both within and outside of
their networks. Pediatricians were asked a variety of questions regarding their current ACE
knowledge and their approach to treating trauma. Based on our research two main findings
emerged:
1. Pediatricians have varying levels of knowledge regarding ACEs.
Some pediatricians were very knowledgeable about ACEs. These providers learned about ACEs
through conferences and training sessions that they attended voluntarily. These providers were
up to date on current ACE research and implemented certain aspects of trauma informed care
into their own practice. Their main obstacle in treating and preventing ACEs was lack of time.
Providers explained how they did not have enough time in each office visit to identify, treat and
prevent all forms of trauma that patients may be exposed to. These providers tended to be
previously involved in the Resilience Project. Although very knowledgeable about empirical
research regarding ACEs, we did not communicate with any providers that have implemented
universal ACE screening into their practice.
Other pediatricians were unaware of ACEs and their empirical basis. We suspect that this is
again due to a shortage of time in physicians’ workdays and the overwhelming amount of
medical research that is available to providers. It is impossible for providers to keep up with all
newly published medical journal articles. Many of these providers explained that they have
always been treating trauma when they know patients are exposed to it. Most pediatricians
were interested in ACE research and want to improve how they treat trauma. We did not
communicate with any providers that implemented any practices to prevent ACEs in their
practice.
5. 2. Pediatricians are unaware of local resources that can refer patients to
Some pediatricians stated that their networks do not offer behavioral services. This means that
pediatricians have to refer their patients outside of their network and often do not know what
local services are available. The networks that do offer behavioral services often do not see
patients under a certain age making it difficult for pediatricians to make a referral for young
patients. Additionally, the cost of behavioral services is often an issue for parents and hinders
childrens’ access to treatment. Providers are also struggling to locate local behavioral services
for parents such as parenting classes and therapy.
Our suggestions
Based on our findings, we suggest a network of resources is compiled and shared with
pediatricians throughout Orange County. We propose that a document is created that is easy
for providers to consult when looking to refer a patient somewhere for behavioral services.
Information regarding insurance types accepted should be included and providers should be
able to add resources to the document as they discover them.
We also believe that many physicians would benefit from additional education regarding ACES
and have composed a document highlighting current ACE research and suggested a few easy,
quick ways to include trauma informed care into their own practice.

ACE BEST PRACTICES: HEALTHCARE
March 2020 2gen.bctr.cornell.edu
Best Practices for Healthcare Providers in Orange County:
Adverse Childhood Experiences
By Rachel Milone and Rohit Agrawal Cornell University
Cornell Cooperative extension of Orange County has partnered with Cornell Project 2Gen to evaluate different
sectors across Orange County and suggest ways to incorporate ACE awareness and trauma-informed care into
pre-existing entities. In healthcare, our goal has been to analyze pediatrician’s approach to treating ACEs
through interviews with providers and to suggest ways in which their practice can be improved.
What you can do:
Suggested best practices for healthcare providers that are both effective and time efficient.
• Be ACE Aware
o By identifying trauma, you can provide targeted care to improve well-being, and prevent many
of the long-term physical and mental health problems associated with ACE exposure. A variety
of screening tools exist for identifying ACEs1; be sure to check with experts in trauma-informed
care before using these tools.
• Practice person-centered care
o Developing stronger relationships with patients can improve the effectiveness treatment.
Particularly vulnerable patients may not receive consistent care or follow the advice of their
provider because they do not feel comfortable and able to openly communicate.
• Educate your patients
o Many patients are not aware of the negative long-term effects of toxic stress and could benefit
from increased education. NPR offers an accessible introduction to ACEs2.
ACEs are potentially traumatic events that occur in a child’s life before age 18 including:
ABUSE
• Emotional abuse
• Physical abuse
• Sexual abuse
HOUSEHOLD CHALLENGES
• Domestic abuse
• Substance misuse in the household
• Mental illness in the household
• Parental separation or divorce
• Incarcerated household member
NEGLECT
• Emotional neglect
• Physical neglect
All of which can have a detrimental, long-lasting impact on later life health and well-being.
WHAT ARE ADVERSE CHILDHOOD EXPERIENCES (ACEs)?
7. Providers can also make families more aware of effective responses to toxic stress. Making
clients aware of ways to self-regulate their flight-or-fight response to toxic stress will make
them less susceptible to long-term health complications. The following table, taken from the
Rhode Island Department of Health, provides a list of ways families can regulate the prevalence
of toxic stress:6
3. Pediatricians can utilize more coordinated care by increasing their communication with
mid-level practitioners and providing them with more roles. For example, nurses, as
opposed to doctors, can screen clients for ACEs by spearheading the implementation of
surveys or refer clients to online resources so doctors have more time to communicate
with families and develop stronger relationships with them.

8. Overview: Trauma-Sensitive Education in Port Jervis
Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) play a huge role in a child’s ability to learn. Around 60%
of US kids are exposed to trauma, ultimately turning off kids’ learning switch, leading to
decreased reading ability and lower GPA. Children with ACEs see the world as a dangerous
place, including school, and they start showing signs of aggression, defiance, and withdrawal.
Because of this, trauma sensitive schools are essential for kids so they can have a safe space
where children can build positive relationships with adults and children.
Trauma-sensitive schools can have a wide range of services that accommodate ACEs. Port Jervis
School District, specifically, has gone above and beyond in terms of implementing programs to
help kids with ACEs feel safe and cared for:
● Mental Health Education in School summit
○ Create diverse communities and acknowledge differences
○ Mental health mapping
○ Mental health youth first aid training
○ Conferences for all
○ Implement student voice into discussions
● Train teachers to reason why children are acting out (nexus to behavior) rather than
simply punish them
● Health and Wellness Day
○ Since Port Jervis has the highest domestic violence in Orange County, Port Jervis
started emphasizing inclusivity with interscholastic sports (variation of Special
Olympics) so students with disabilities are able to play sports and they can feel
included
○ Diverse literature with different textures of hair, homosexuality, non-traditional
families so children can see themselves in the books they’re reading
■ Port Jervis spent $2,000 on books to encourage reading and diverse
books
● Kinesthetic Lab
○ A space where they can move and exercise since cognition between moving and
learning yields to higher results
● Mindfulness Practices implemented within the curriculum
○ Yoga for kids
○ Helps de-escalate kids so they can be in a learning, calming environment
9. Spotlight on Zero-Hour Physical Education
The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that children ages 6-17
receive 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity every day.7 Unfortunately, roughly
one half of children in the country do not meet this minimum. Many studies have been
conducted highlighting the necessity of implementing quality physical-education programs in
elementary schools. A new approach called “zero-hour physical education” has been studied in
numerous settings nationally, though far less extensively. To make a decision in implementing
this, two cases should be observed.
A. Naperville, Illinois (Enhancing P.E. in Illinois: Naperville Central High School)8, 9
1. Study description
a) Town population: 147,682 (2017); school: 2,810 students.
b) Demographics: 14% free/reduced lunch, 67.3% White, 4% African American,
8.3% Hispanic, 16.2% Asian.
c) P.E. classes include 20 minutes of cardio and emphasize the use of smaller-scale
versions of popular sports, such as “4 on 4 soccer” so students are required to
run more. Teachers are given heart-rate monitors and software to track activity.
2. Results
a) Literacy improvement was tracked throughout the year in students enrolled in
regular PE and Learning Readiness PE (LRPE), which was an improved PE class
for underperforming students scheduled immediately before math and English
periods. In 2007, LRPE was conducted in both morning and afternoon, but in all
other years it was conducted only in the morning. In 2006, 2006, 2009, and
2011, there was significantly more improvement in literacy with morning LRPE
than with regular PE. It is important to note that in 2007, the improvement in
morning LRPE and afternoon LRPE was virtually the same.
b) Algebra improvement was tracked throughout the year. In 2006, students
improved by 20% with the LRPE and only 5% with regular PE. In 2007 and 2009,
the difference was significant but much smaller.

10. c) It is clear that scheduling high-quality PE before students’ most challenging
classes has benefits on their performance. However, this particular study noted
that afternoon LRPE was equally as beneficial as morning LRPE.
B. Southeastern city (unnamed) (Phillips)10
1. Study description
a) Town population: 115,00; elementary school: 379 students.
b) Demographics: 62% free/reduced lunch (similar to Port Jervis), 13% Hispanic,
24% African American, 49% White, 13% multiracial and multiethnic.
c) Program occurred prior to the beginning of regular school day for 80
participants; activities included jump rope games, cone and ladder drills, team
sport drills including basketball and soccer, rotating calisthenic stations, and
obstacle course games to reach 60-80% of maximal heart rate.
2. Results
a) Study noted there was a “significant difference in reading test scores for the
zero-hour physical activity intervention group ...”
b) When analyzing improvement in math performance, the study “did not find any
significant differences between the intervention and control group…”
c) Study noticed fewer disciplinary issues with students and elevated mood.
d) Study noticed significant benefits for students with ADHD.

11. Overview: ACE Awareness and Impacts in Orange County
Orange county is a county in New York City looking to start a program to increase ACE
awareness in their community. Currently, they are screening a film for important stakeholders
(i.e. teachers, doctors, social workers etc.) and collecting survey information to gauge the
community’s understanding of ACEs. As the survey team on this project, our goals are to help
analyze and present the data Orange County has already collected as well as to recommend
new ways to assess the community-level impact of ACE awareness and ACE-interventions.
So far, Orange County has organized the community café harvest event, during which the film
Resilience has been shown. The event has generated discussions on ACEs and thoughts on what
each community can do to improve the situation. In addition, Orange County has distributed
the measure of awareness and impact survey and received answers from 54 participants
representing various community groups in the county. The survey mainly gauges participants’
understanding of ACES and their awareness of available resources that can be leveraged to
buffer the effects of ACEs in their communities. The survey is detailed as it asks about specific
ways each participant intends to make changes; however, it is easy for participants to get lost in
details as some answers are personal rather than community-focused and goal-oriented.
A word cloud of responses to two questions asked at the community café: “What should we
change?” and “What are you going to do now?”
12. Orange County Measure of Awareness and Impact Survey: Key Takeaways
Participants overall were well-informed on how well they know the impacts of ACEs on physical
health (average score of 3.13 on a scale of 1-not at all to 4-very well), mental health (average
score of 3.30 on a scale of 1-not at all to 4-very well), as well as child behaviors (average score
of 3.15 on a scale of 1-not at all to 4-very well).
Resources participants are most aware of
o Mental health facilities: mentioned 15 times
o Religious organizations: mentioned 7 times
o Food pantries: mentioned 4 times
o Cornell Cooperative Extension: mentioned 4 times
o Other services/facilities include: library, school, parenting coalition, mobile outreach,
family and youth services, etc.
Actions participants can take include:
o Volunteer: involved in the community, run groups for caregivers
o Education: positive parenting, social skills
o Training: social-emotional learning,
o Screening: screen for ACEs
o Creative work: book on art therapy for children,
o Support: home visiting program
o Look for funding to support projects
o Sharing: information on ACE, the film Resilience
13. Orange County Measure of Awareness and Impact Survey: Recommendations
Strengths of the survey
• Detail-focused
• Personal
• Relatable
Opportunities for growth
• Improve long-term planning for evaluation
• Use survey as a tool for pre-post evaluation or progress monitoring
Strategy
We have identified two coalition groups that have performed cross-site evaluations: ACEs
Public-Private Partnership Initiative (APPI) in Washington State and Mobilizing Action for
Resilient Communities (MARC). Strategies of these groups could be adopted by Orange County:
1. A new survey can be composed for long-term monitoring of progress and evaluation.
“ACES and Resilience Collective Community Capacity Survey Instrument” from the
Washington State APPI can be adopted for usage. This survey would be useful because it
can be used as a regular monitoring tool to evaluate progress of each community group.
More importantly, this survey can reflectively evaluate the performance of the coalition
in supporting individual community groups (Sample questions are attached in figure 1
and 2)
2. Progress can also be mapped in a creative way to help the coalition understand the
progress within each community. For example, a general structure of progress reporting
is provided to each community group and each is required to send the report regularly
(e.g. monthly). An example of progress tracking and reporting is attached in figure 3.
14. Figure 1. Sample questions to track progress of each community group
Figure 2. Sample questions to evaluate the performance of coalition
16. Washington State’s ACEs Public-Private Initiative (APPI), is a group of public, private and
community organizations working together to address ACEs. They have done extensive studies
to evaluate the impact of their ACE program, which can be found in the APPI Cross-site
evaluation report. We recommend that Orange county should use similar methods.
At the time of this study, they had five APPI sites in the state working to address ACEs.
Washington APPI did a feasibility analysis to see if they could detect impacts of site-specific
ACE-related efforts at the county level. For each site, they examined trends in county-level ACE
related outcomes from before and after the sites shifted to ACE-specific work. They also
compared these trends to matched comparison counties in Washington state to see if the
changes were related to the site’s efforts or due to statewide policy.
The APPI identified 30 ACE indicators divided into 4 domains that represent both individual-
level changes as well as community-level changes. They collected this data from various state-
level data sources. These are all summarized in figures 4 and 5 below.
Currently, Orange County has only engaged in collecting subjective individual-level
measurements that consist of surveys after a film screening. In order to understand the
community-level impact of ACE awareness, we recommend that Orange County should start
measuring the same outcomes that Washington state has. Washington state has done a good
job of using both subjective (surveys) and objective (rates of hospitalizations, graduation rates
etc.) methods of measuring ACES. While it may take a while to implement the surveys and get a
good response rate, it is easy to access data concerning some of the objective measurements
(arrest rates, graduation rates etc.). Furthermore, instead of comparing their trends on these 30
indicators with another county, we recommend that Orange County follow a pre-post format,
looking at data within their own county over a few years. These changes will help Orange
County have a good measurement method for both individual and community level impact of
increased ACE awareness.
