1.
I enjoyed reading your post and I completely agree with your points. I would like to comment on one of your points regarding controlling the quality of care by using independent contractors. There are benefits to this initiatives, but there could be disadvantages too. The benefit of using teams of experts that you did not hire saves the organization costs associated with keeping full time employees, and patients are seen in a timely manner (In some cases). Many years ago, some departsments in a HMO that I work for had access problem such as patients having to wait 3-4 weeks when they need to see a specialist within the organization. No patient with ear infection or difficulty swallowing wants to wait for 3 three weeks to be seen.
We were sending patients outside for urgent MRIs, CT scans, as well as to different specialists even though the company has capabilities to perform some of these functions in house. Apart from the rising costs this created, the level of patients dissatisfaction went through the roof as some patients get to their appointments and were told that referrals that were to be autofaxed to the outside vendors were never received. Some patients were sent away (no referral, no service). Our Utilization Management department was bombarded with approving these external referrals. We have improved, regrouped, and expanded. State of the art facilities were built and still continue to be built, More physicians, nurses, and support staff were hired, and our patient satifaction rate has grown greatly. For example, we used to send our deaf patients to John's Hopkins Hospital for cochlear implants which cost way over hundred thousand dollars, but that's done in house now

Quality of care is a very sensitive subject for every party involved in the healthcare system. They all have different perspectives, each looking at healthcare from a different lens. Patients see quality of care in the results of their treatment and whether their treatment was effective immediately. It can also be measured by how the provider thinks, If a provider were to say that a patient would heal in 2 weeks, the patient would check for the dulling of pain around 2 weeks after the visit. Providers, on the other hand, see quality of care as the credentials that they need to get in order to renew and keep their license to practice.
Quality has its place in the healthcare system, with its positives and negatives. The positives are that it creates an air of steady improvement within competing facilities, and that it encompasses the entire scope of the patient's feelings and their care, such as the friendliness of staff to the patient, and number of services provided. The negatives are that the rating system could list quality as bad for a number of reasons that culminate in the spirit of customer service, and that constant high quality for providers means that their licenses are constantly being improved with items that fit the demanding.
1. For me personally this can be both ways depending the the situa.docxambersalomon88660
1. For me personally this can be both ways depending the the situation that has to be dealt with. But if this circumstance has to be due to long term care is would most likely choose a nurse practitioner to deal this examination or procedure because they see patients at every phase of their lives, and typically don not specialize in any one area. They can function well as primary care providers because their background includes knowledge of both holistic and wellness oriented programs, which spotlight education, risk identification and preventive care. Any surgical has to be done by a physician no doubt but apart from that the nurse practitioner can handle the rest which is why most patients go to nurse practitioner to handle their care. Therefore, any condition that can be identified by treating acute and chronic illnesses, order and analyze labs and other diagnostic tests and prescribe medications then the nurse practitioner is ideal. And lastly would choose them because they have more time on their handle than physicians.
2. in some areas of the United States there is a shortage of doctor in primary care. Because of this, hospitals, urgent care centers and private clinics are looking for nurse practitioner to fill those needs. Nurse Practitioners are licensed and capable to treating illnesses and injuries and educating patients. They can also diagnose and treat acute and chronic conditions. The most common certification for NP’s is primary care so the majority of them do not have certification qualifications in specialties like cardiology, neurology, gastroenterology or surgical practice just to name a few. So for examinations in a primary care setting, I would be willing to have one done by a nurse practitioner or a physician depending on their appointment availability. Mostly it will be with a NP because you can get an appointment sooner. So when it comes to procedures, I would rather have one done by a physicians because they have more extensive and comprehensive training.
3. In reading this discussion forum question, I could tell you based on my experience working with a few (NP's)-Nurse Practitioners and the majority of patients who were seen by them, I would never want to be medically seen by an NP based on several problems that I have encountered which have made me biased, in my choices. To Illustrate, I have endured working alongside an Asian American NP, who made black patients uncomfortable with the treatment they received during their office visit, as the NP did not listen to their health concerns while rushing through their visit, not examining the patients and at times refusing to prescribe medications, like Vitamin D or Multivitamins when the patient requested them. They were also refused diagnostic testing which they wanted done, just to make sure there was nothing, to be worried about. As these black patients faced these health disparities, they vowed never to return to the clinic for medical services, as they f.

Feeding plate for a newborn with Cleft Palate.pptxSatvikaPrasad
A feeding plate is a prosthetic device used for newborns with a cleft palate to assist in feeding and improve nutrition intake. From a prosthodontic perspective, this plate acts as a barrier between the oral and nasal cavities, facilitating effective sucking and swallowing by providing a more normal anatomical structure. It helps to prevent milk from entering the nasal passage, thereby reducing the risk of aspiration and enhancing the infant's ability to feed efficiently. The feeding plate also aids in the development of the oral muscles and can contribute to better growth and weight gain. Its custom fabrication and proper fitting by a prosthodontist are crucial for ensuring comfort and functionality, as well as for minimizing potential complications. Early intervention with a feeding plate can significantly improve the quality of life for both the infant and the parents.
Health Education on prevention of hypertensionRadhika kulvi
Hypertension is a chronic condition of concern due to its role in the causation of coronary heart diseases. Hypertension is a worldwide epidemic and important risk factor for coronary artery disease, stroke and renal diseases. Blood pressure is the force exerted by the blood against the walls of the blood vessels and is sufficient to maintain tissue perfusion during activity and rest. Hypertension is sustained elevation of BP. In adults, HTN exists when systolic blood pressure is equal to or greater than 140mmHg or diastolic BP is equal to or greater than 90mmHg. The

14. A new model
Funding "There is no magic money tree"
GP shortage Multidisciplinary team
Demand Maximising efficiency
Complexity Consultant-led not consultant-delivered
Safety More funding is essential
15. A new model
We need a system to safely manage more patients
via a multidisciplinary team
We need to know what the patient has contacted us
for and triage to the appropriate person/team
Signposting can start the process
But cannot differentiate safely on clinical
presentations
Clinical triage
16. Efficient clinical triage
Allow the patient to provide the history before it
even enters the system – a "zero time" step
Weed out non-clinical queries and those that don’t
need an appointment
Send the issue to the most appropriate team
member first time
Use the most appropriate mode of consultation to
resolve the problem
18. Online consultations
Zero-time history step
Effective triage
And little documentation afterwards
Shorter consultation pathway on average
Maximises multidisciplinary working
• Efficiency
• Cost-effectiveness
19. Not just for acute problems
Effective triage
Faster and more efficient
Maximises multidisciplinary working
• Why not use it for all problems?
21. Appointments
An appointment may clearly be needed after initial
triage
With Engage consult a clinician may identify this
before even speaking with the patient
22. Follow-up
Follow-up appointments are needed for a variety of
reasons
Patients are often willing to update the surgery after a
specified time period
E.g. stress-related problems
23. Medication review
Medication review scenario
I am awaiting an operation in 3 weeks time; the
naproxen and codeine I was prescribed
previously is working alright, I just need more
whilst awaiting my surgery
24. Gain of additional information
Non-acute problems eg GAD7, PHQ9
Domestic violence scenario
25. Part of multimodal consulting
Online is not a replacement for face-to-face
Some patients still need seeing
Online only is not a universal model
"one of the first merits of this Bill is that it provides a
universal health service without any ... qualifications
of any sort. It is available to the whole population"
Aneurin Bevan
26. Patient feedback
The online service is an excellent way to
communicate, I have used this twice and both
experiences have been positive. I have also used
the telephone service and this also is a positive way
of communication.
Engage consult is quick and easy to use especially
outside of opening hours. I am really impressed by
the service and I always get a call back or
assistance within 24 hours
27. Efficient clinical triage
Allow the patient to provide the history before it
even enters the system – a "zero time" step
Weed out non-clinical queries and those that don’t
need an appointment
Send the issue to the most appropriate team
member first time
Use the most appropriate mode of consultation to
resolve the problem
28. Patient feedback
It made me think more about my symptoms and I had
time to think about the answers and go back and
change them
I feel that I have time to give a more thorough
explanation of my symptoms - aided by the relevant
questions which appear, and by being given the
opportunity to put in my own words all that I wish to
say. This is an excellent service since I can submit it
in my own time and not have to wait to get through
by phone, only then not explain myself fully
29. Patient feedback
I used it as I felt I did not need to actually see a doctor
and take up an appointment time unless the GP felt
it necessary. I could explain my symptoms clearly
online and await a response
Good so far - I don’t like to take up Doctors time
unnecessarily so this is a good way of
communicating for non urgent cases
30. Patient feedback
Easy to use. Asks the relevant questions and a good
system for someone like me that finds it hard to
discuss certain things face to face
I've used engage consult to describe a problem that
I've had in order to get an experts opinion on it as I
am unsure of my symptoms and therefore would not
have been able to give a clear explanation over the
phone.
31. Patient feedback
Better than waiting to get through and more
confidential
I like the fact I don't have to find somewhere private
during the day to make a call to the surgery, in all
honesty I don't want my colleagues overhearing my
medical problems
32. Patient feedback
Used it because I feel unable to attend the Surgery,
also Influenza is Contagious, so would be unfair to
expose other folk with it.
Used it as to not call the reception unless full
emergency
a good way of communicating for non urgent cases
Report a non urgent health issue
37. But...short-cuts in care?
More antibiotics for phone consultations?
No, actually less – despite a jump in consultation
number due to moving to uncapped access
Telephone triage did not impact the quantity of
antibiotic prescribing
– n2015=2147
– n2016=2042
– n2017=2061
38. Better cancer care
Cancer wait time audit – a shorter pathway
Once seen by a clinician referral is swift regardless
of system
Much shorter waits to see a clinician
39. Multimodal not unimodal
Restricting access to online-only, phone only (or
services such as smartphone-based providers) or
walk-in only constrains access and results in worse
care
Multimodal consulting maximises access, rather
than restricting it
40. Endnote ...
Necessity is the mother of invention
General Practice is still underfunded
Safe working levels are not achievable currently
Many experienced GPs are voting with their feet
GP numbers are actually falling
Cutting funding whilst asking primary care to take
activity away from hospitals is perverse and
doomed to failure
