SCIP Compliance has been a major struggle for many Healthcare Providers. Specific quality programs are often inflexible in the data collection and reporting demands they place on care providers, which leads to poor documentation on care delivery and compliance.
Learn how to leverage near-real-time alerts to ensure compliance with best practices, driving the highest quality surgical care. In this 1 hour webinar you will gain valuable insight into how you can:
Facilitate more informed decisions by providing visibility into hospital-wide and cross-facility metrics and trends
Prioritize the need for corrective actions by benchmarking against industry standards, best practices and internal goals
Improve hospital performance by identifying and replicating demonstrable best practices across the organization
Increase staff productivity and data accuracy through automatic and embedded performance monitoring
2. The Well Known Challenges Continue ⊠Variations in the quality of care and resulting patient outcomes Technology adoption to support clinical insights lags behind other areas After the fact performance improvement programs often allocate scarce resources to âpaper chasingâ activities that have little value and almost no hope of impacting current cases Regulatory bodies impose ever increasing reporting requirements that todayâs solutions just canât handle Hospitals are paying too many punitive penalties and often fail to attain all available pay for performance quality incentives / performance-based rewards based on slow or poor reporting

5. Data is scattered throughout multiple, disparate sources resulting in labor-intensive processes ( including chart abstraction for Core Measures) to satisfy reporting needs
6. The excessive timeframe to integrate, analyze, and report data prohibits âIn-processâ measures from benefiting current patient outcomes
7. Lack of clinical data strategy for integrating multiple diverse sources to support analytics and clinical decision supportï Each subject area investigated offers similar challenges with actionable alerting due to data quality and availability issues

Current State â Post-Discharge CPT-4 Coding RECOMMENDATION Concurrent Coding/Code at Booking Medical Coding (CPT-4 / ICD-9) Quality Measures Analytics Decision Support Systems Discharge Date Opportunity to change core measure results Admission Horizon Clinical Systems Patient Records are Scanned Electronic Physician Orders are 30-40% CPOE 2-3 days post-discharge Medipac â Patient Registration Patient Records in Picis (free text and discrete data) Physician Orders are Verbal, or entered later CURRENTLY Arrival Surgery Medical Records Coding (HDM) Registration (Medipac) Pre-Op (Picis) OR Surgery (Picis) PACU / Admission Orders with diagnosis (PICIS/Horizon) Arrival Surgery Prep Procedure Recovery Post-Discharge
14. Too frequent use of the Picis memo field Eliminates the ability to efficiently and automatically analyze the data No standardized processes for collecting and documenting data There are no consistent data collection points and locations for the data across clinical workflows; and no data owners responsible for its quality No designated, authoritative sources for each piece of data collected SCIP Chart abstractors have to look in up to 9 places for SCIP data Like the Accountability Matrix, all data needs a trusted source and owner Current State: Obstacles to Discrete Data Collection Canât analyze thefree-format text collected here!

33. Feasibility of open sourcetechnologies to meet the needs of the near-term business requirements, while still being in alignment with the long-term visionThe Solution â Core Functions & Benefits
34. Retrospective Reporting â This component includes the following functionality: The creation of the underlying dimensional data mart The creation of the Business Objects Universe to access the underlying dimensional data mart The Xcelsius dashboard, WEBI reports and/or Crystal reports for retrospective reporting This functionality is included due to: Ability to demonstrate the value of the overall solution â Dimensional data marts, Business Objects Universes and Xclesius dashboards Dashboards
35. Main Points Consistently high Core measure compliance benefits: Quality of Care Patient Satisfaction Hospital Reputation Financial Returns Discrete data is essential for automating the reporting, analysis, and presentation of core measure compliance An alert mechanism is scalable for future measures by simply expanding business logic/rules Alerts can be delivered via text, email, page, widget prompt An alert is as real-time as the systems holding the data Alerts are clinician âRemindersâ not âDictatorsâ Superior Outcomes Dollars Spent = Value to the Patient

We anticipated and discussedextending these concepts (org impact, data collection, process reengineering, alerts and escalation, technical platform, analytics) to the other core measures, and to other performance improvement contexts.
The question âhas incision been made?â is important because thatâs the first point at which we start collecting âtriggersâ (basically we canât tell them before this point because it will be telling them how to do their jobs). Also, you might as well put the actual trigger questions in this slide straight from the use cases for SCIP-1 â âhas surgery finished?â, âhas post anesthesia checkout list begun in PACU?â
