Day in the Life of a Primary Care Physician Presented by Dr. David Voran, M.D. April 6, 2011 Heartland Clinic
2 Heartland Health
Heartland Clinic of Platte City Free standing clinic 30 miles away from hospital Located in suburb of Kansas City 3.5 physician FTE 1,000-1,200 visits/moth Specialists visit periodically CONFIDENTIAL 3
Typical Day 20-24 patient visits Mini meetings 1-3 procedures Exam room operative or diagnostic 1 meeting Staffing, billing, marketing or professional 20-40 asynchronous messages Nurses, patients colleagues 10-15 interruptions Pharmacies, phone calls, detail reps So how does technology help? 4
5 Single EMR Ambulatory Schedule Inpatient Patient List
One Place for all Visits 6
Integrated HIE 7
8 Ditched Paper … 	What’s Changed? Paper chart pulls Eliminated 6-8 hours of work/week/nurse Paper chart creation Chopped 8 hours of clerical work Saved $32 in material cost per patient Point-of-care documentation Instant access instead of 24-48 hour delay Saving $20-$30K per physician per year Electronic patient access Eliminated 1-2 hours of phone conversations per day Quick access to results (36 hours) OVER A DAY A WEEK IN LABOR SAVED
Point-of-care documentation Use flexible templates Over 500 that can be combined in unlimited ways Most work done with patient at provider’s side Increased transparency Increased accuracy Nurses and Physicians contribute equally Information carries forward Eliminates redundant documentation Improves quantity and quality of clinical information Simplifies work flow and training Significantly streamlined workflow
POC Technology Push as much technology to the point of care as possible Device is as much for the patient as the provider Used as a “window to the world” Evolution  notebook > tablet > standard workstations > expanded large screen workstations > multi-touch wide-screen devices 10
Clinic Visit Interview Standardized “SOAP”  Subjective What the patient says Objective What we see and measure Assessment Diagnosis Plan Prescriptions, orders, education and follow up 11 Templates provide structure and consistency distribute work to even the patients
12 Message Center All communication in one location Incoming Paper converted to digital documents at the door Reduced workflow variability Can now manage incoming information
Decisions, Decisions, Decisions What to ask? What to examine? What to include? What to exclude? Diagnosis ~40% uncertainty What tests to order? What to prescribe? CONFIDENTIAL 13 25 - 50 decisions each visit 625 - 2,500 a day
Prescribing ePrescribe – Uses CPOE interface Part of the documentation process Launched from the template Actions rendered as text in the note Usually done at the point of care Can get outside information before decisions are made Can tell which meds are on formulary before ordering List of various medications available with generic components Shows alternatives Dramatically reduces interruptions and increases productive time in the exam room 14
Real Decision Support 15
Have more to do …. Pharmacy selection should be smarter Many pharmacies identified by number Lack of maps Entering zip codes don’t help as nearby zip codes not listed Product status Dither out products that are no longer available Indicate relative prices Diagnostic orders Medications “Gotcha” discern support Alert fires AFTER selection Should act like formulary notification Indicator to AVOID selection Lack of condition-based prescription recommendations Make a diagnosis > produce a list of orders and medications indicated for this diagnosis 16
InterruptionsThe biggest bane Not easy to recover from many of them Interruptions are more than lack of timely decision support Technology has eliminated more than half Patient portal Electronic messaging Many pharmacies still resorting to telephones and faxes Electronic communications preferred Good news is that the industry is slowly catching on Long way to go 17
About that trip… Meaningful Use Feds missed the boat Should be building highways instead of buying cars Very little benefit from the incentives  Much larger costs are interfacing EMRs to the all of the other systems involved in the care of a person However, every little bit helps Need to have similar mandates for 3rd party payers Too much emphasis on documentation Concerned about the leaves instead of the trees Should do more to help us manage the forest Conflicting mandates between different regulatory branches ePrescribe EXCEPT for scheduled medications (What the #I@*?) Everyone will still follow the money Ride the RVU and fee-for-service wave until it crashes Need some reward for those of us that are voluntarily “falling on our swords” 18
At the end of the day CONFIDENTIAL

Day in the life of a primary care for pdr net p pt version 4

  • 1. Day in the Life of a Primary Care Physician Presented by Dr. David Voran, M.D. April 6, 2011 Heartland Clinic
  • 3. Heartland Clinic of Platte City Free standing clinic 30 miles away from hospital Located in suburb of Kansas City 3.5 physician FTE 1,000-1,200 visits/moth Specialists visit periodically CONFIDENTIAL 3
  • 4. Typical Day 20-24 patient visits Mini meetings 1-3 procedures Exam room operative or diagnostic 1 meeting Staffing, billing, marketing or professional 20-40 asynchronous messages Nurses, patients colleagues 10-15 interruptions Pharmacies, phone calls, detail reps So how does technology help? 4
  • 5. 5 Single EMR Ambulatory Schedule Inpatient Patient List
  • 6. One Place for all Visits 6
  • 8. 8 Ditched Paper … What’s Changed? Paper chart pulls Eliminated 6-8 hours of work/week/nurse Paper chart creation Chopped 8 hours of clerical work Saved $32 in material cost per patient Point-of-care documentation Instant access instead of 24-48 hour delay Saving $20-$30K per physician per year Electronic patient access Eliminated 1-2 hours of phone conversations per day Quick access to results (36 hours) OVER A DAY A WEEK IN LABOR SAVED
  • 9. Point-of-care documentation Use flexible templates Over 500 that can be combined in unlimited ways Most work done with patient at provider’s side Increased transparency Increased accuracy Nurses and Physicians contribute equally Information carries forward Eliminates redundant documentation Improves quantity and quality of clinical information Simplifies work flow and training Significantly streamlined workflow
  • 10. POC Technology Push as much technology to the point of care as possible Device is as much for the patient as the provider Used as a “window to the world” Evolution notebook > tablet > standard workstations > expanded large screen workstations > multi-touch wide-screen devices 10
  • 11. Clinic Visit Interview Standardized “SOAP” Subjective What the patient says Objective What we see and measure Assessment Diagnosis Plan Prescriptions, orders, education and follow up 11 Templates provide structure and consistency distribute work to even the patients
  • 12. 12 Message Center All communication in one location Incoming Paper converted to digital documents at the door Reduced workflow variability Can now manage incoming information
  • 13. Decisions, Decisions, Decisions What to ask? What to examine? What to include? What to exclude? Diagnosis ~40% uncertainty What tests to order? What to prescribe? CONFIDENTIAL 13 25 - 50 decisions each visit 625 - 2,500 a day
  • 14. Prescribing ePrescribe – Uses CPOE interface Part of the documentation process Launched from the template Actions rendered as text in the note Usually done at the point of care Can get outside information before decisions are made Can tell which meds are on formulary before ordering List of various medications available with generic components Shows alternatives Dramatically reduces interruptions and increases productive time in the exam room 14
  • 16. Have more to do …. Pharmacy selection should be smarter Many pharmacies identified by number Lack of maps Entering zip codes don’t help as nearby zip codes not listed Product status Dither out products that are no longer available Indicate relative prices Diagnostic orders Medications “Gotcha” discern support Alert fires AFTER selection Should act like formulary notification Indicator to AVOID selection Lack of condition-based prescription recommendations Make a diagnosis > produce a list of orders and medications indicated for this diagnosis 16
  • 17. InterruptionsThe biggest bane Not easy to recover from many of them Interruptions are more than lack of timely decision support Technology has eliminated more than half Patient portal Electronic messaging Many pharmacies still resorting to telephones and faxes Electronic communications preferred Good news is that the industry is slowly catching on Long way to go 17
  • 18. About that trip… Meaningful Use Feds missed the boat Should be building highways instead of buying cars Very little benefit from the incentives Much larger costs are interfacing EMRs to the all of the other systems involved in the care of a person However, every little bit helps Need to have similar mandates for 3rd party payers Too much emphasis on documentation Concerned about the leaves instead of the trees Should do more to help us manage the forest Conflicting mandates between different regulatory branches ePrescribe EXCEPT for scheduled medications (What the #I@*?) Everyone will still follow the money Ride the RVU and fee-for-service wave until it crashes Need some reward for those of us that are voluntarily “falling on our swords” 18
  • 19. At the end of the day CONFIDENTIAL

Editor's Notes

  1. Heartland Health is located in St. Joseph, MO (pop. 80,000) about 50 miles north of Kansas City. Composed of Heartland Regional Medical Center and Heartland Clinic. HRMC is a 300 bed hospital and Heartland Clinic is a combination of 30 clinics employing a little over 100 physicians of all specialties.Heartland Health is the proud recipient of last year’s Malcolm Baldridge National Quality Award.
  2. Heartland Clinic of Platte City is one of the 30 Heartland Clinic clinics. It is a free standing clinic located just north of the Kansas City International Airport and 30 miles south of St. Joseph. It faces a totally different environment than other Heartland Clinics in that it is located in a suburb of Kansas City and most patients receive other medical services in 7 different hospitals in the Kansas City area instead of exclusively at HRMC.There 4 physicians (3.5 FTE) 2 Family Practice 1 Pediatric 1 Internal MedicineVarious specialists come down from St. Joseph on most days of the week to have half-day clinics Cardiology Podiatry Surgery Pain Management Endocrinology
  3. Typical day involves a wide range of interactions with patients, staff, administration and colleagues. So how have we leveraged technology to help us?
  4. First, it can work to simplify the location of information for the physician.We use a single electronic chart for both Inpatient and Outpatient patient recordsTwo sides of the same coinData entered once is immediately available across the entire spectrum of careShare problem lists, medications, labs, registration, everythingHeartland Health has completed certification for HIMSS Analytics Level 6 Award and is just short of achieving Level 7 status putting us in the top 2% of all health care organizations
  5. Second: Eliminates paperWe’ve been “paperless” for over 2 years and here’s what’s changed:Dramatically changed the work flows Nurses don’t waste time pulling charts Administrative personnel don’t create paper charts Dramatically simplified and streamlined the process of seeing patientsDo most documentation at the point-of-careWeb portal exposes the chart to the patientIncrease productivity (we see the same number of patients with one less FTE per physician than clinics with paper charts)
  6. Pushed work to the point-of-care like most other industriesBy simplifying the documentation work flow and doing it in the exam room in a way the patient can see the documentation being generated has:Decreased training time and effort (everyone using the same tools)Reduced the amount of redundant data entryIncreased the quality and quantity of the data collected during the visitCan be leveraged to increase patient through-put. Our overall cycle time (time from when a patient hits registers to discharge is now 40 minutes with 37 of those minutes spent with a provider instead of in the waiting room)Increases patient satisfactionPreliminary suggestions that it improves patient compliance and understanding
  7. Point of care encourages us to continually improve exam-room technology.Are constantly experimenting with improving the point-of-care devices …. Goal is touch enabled living walls that can interact with both providers, patients and equipment … “living” exam rooms.
  8. Standardized the patient visit to reduce variability, improve data accuracy and thoroughness and distribute work flow. Still labor intensive compared to what it could be.
  9. Fourth, All communications movingas much communication to asynchronous, electronic forms as possible.Reduces interruptions.Improves communications and reduces mistakes.
  10. No matter what automation is in place the physician is making a thousand decisions a day … does exhaust the mind.
  11. ePrescribing has helped many of these decisions and new electronic features are preventing mistakes, call-backs and delays in patients getting the right medication. Still has room for improvement, though.
  12. Having this information in advance helps us look intelligent and provides value added services for the patient
  13. Decision support is complicated and, except for a significant chunk of ePrescribing, is still in the “gotcha” phase where a clinician has to make a decision and then get slapped. Negative reinforcer?
  14. Interruptions are still the bane of the day and can undermine a well planned day. Technology is helping and we’re seeing a slight glimmer of hope in the horizon.
  15. Meaningful use: Where would we be if the Eisenhower Administration had subsidized automobiles instead of putting in the Interstate system?Incentives help but the real value is in the interfaces to labs, pharmacies, hospitals, 3rd party payers, hospitals and other clinics … total cost of that dwarfs the cost of an office EMRNeed to make sure 3rd party payers push enrollees, their historical claims data to physicians … we just don’t know who we need to see and have to do the heavy lifting of de-novo data entry.Spend way too much time documenting minutia and as a result we miss the really important information. Requirements need to be more like they are in the UKOh, and wouldn’t it be nice if there was a unified set of regulations?People will continue to do what brings in the bacon until they can’t do it any more. Change always follows money.
  16. Still, most of us are exhausted when we head home …. Only to be called several times during the intervening hours before the next day starts. Day is never really done.
