- 2. Incumbents vs. Revolutionaries
• Incumbents
– The old model has worked for an extended time period
– In “Maintenance Mode” – don’t want to mess with “the
formula”
– Leverage brand and historical reputation
– Adopting any new approach puts the model at risk
• Can cannibalize one’s own business
– Very few have adopted a revolutionary mindset and have
been successful at changing the model
• Revolutionaries
– Victory comes by changing the model
– Being scrappy, open to invention, leverage out-of-the-box

- 26. Paradigm Shift – an overused term from the 1990s?
• Paradigm Shift defined:
– Coined in 1962 by Thomas Kuhn, a scientist
– “A radical change in thinking from an accepted point of
view to a new belief.”
– “A paradigm is what members of a community, and they
alone, share.”
• Key question to be examined by us:
– Are we so “locked in” to our current paradigm of health
delivery that it will inhibit us from envisioning and building a
new future for our ministry?
– Or, can we open our minds to develop new beliefs?
• Radical change never happens quite as quickly as we
may initially think it will, but it does happen!
– When it sneaks up on us gradually, we may miss
opportunities if we are still viewing the world through the old
paradigm.

• From “patients” (passive) to “consumers, members,
guests” (active) – “person-centered” as our new
mantra!
• More customer-centric “retail” strategies
• “Hardwire” approach to capturing customers/patients
– Scheduling, follow-up, digital connections
• Patients/customers as “members” of our system, not
episodic “transactions”
– How do we help them maintain/improve their health?
• “Digital channel” expectations
• Different leadership needed
• Competing for price sensitive customers with access to
lower cost niche providers
• Quality, safety and the care experience are Job One!
– “The price of admission”

- 47. It Requires Demonstrated Leadership in Managing the Health of
our Own Associates (Employees)
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Our total annual spend for health coverage for our associates, spouses and dependents
amounts to $78.6 million per year, and the associate cost contribution to premiums is about
$22 million per year (this does not include deductibles, coinsurance and copayments, which
are an additional cost to our associates and families)
19% of our spend is in prescription drugs
There were 129 “catastrophic” claims (serious conditions like cancer and major orthopedic
care that exceed $100,000 per claim) in 2012, and the median spend per claim was 23%
higher than the Cigna norm for their entire covered groups
Our “outlier” (very long) lengths-of-stay for inpatient care were in four areas: major
gastrointestinal disorders, cardiothoracic surgery, joint replacements and elective back
surgery and mental health/substance abuse care
Young adults (ages 18-26 yrs.) accounted for 11% of adult inpatient admissions, and 33% of
those admissions were for mental health/substance abuse care (an unfortunate sign of the
times?)
Expenditures on emergency care were our second highest outpatient costs. Our emergency
department usage is higher than external benchmarks. And young adults had
disproportionately higher rates of ED utilization than the rest of our population
Chronic pain care drives significant outpatient costs for our population, with interventional
pain procedures, advanced imaging and prescription drugs
47
© SCL Health System
- 48. Opportunities to Improve Health of Our Associates
• Care management opportunities for those experiencing
chronic pain
• Better coordination of care for those with requiring joint
replacements
• Use of more non-surgical treatment options for those
with low back pain who would otherwise end up having
elective back surgery where the medical evidence on
outcomes may not lead to better health status
• Improving access to primary care and urgent care for
common ambulatory conditions to avoid use of
expensive emergency services
• More options to encourage routine preventive care and
screening, and use of outpatient mental health and
substance abuse support for young adults
48

48
- 49. It Requires a Commitment to PERFECT CARE
• We are not striving for incremental improvement
• We are striving for PERFECTION in the care experience:
– Quality, safety, satisfaction
– Empowered and engaged patients and families
– Outcomes
• To be a “trusted partner” means we must be a HIGH RELIABILITY
ORGANIZATION
• Our Model for Perfect Care: Quality, Safety and Care Experience
Collaboratives
– Focused teams learning, identifying and implementing best practice
solutions
• This is meaningful work that requires teamwork to move us to the
next level!
