The Surgeon as a Leader: Improving Quality, Decreasing Costs

Leadership Quality Costs

Defining leadership

Leadership is a combination of a meaningful vision with the ability to influence others by non-coercive means. Leadership is personal and is exercised using values and styles that must fit the circumstances (time, environment, etc.)

IS THIS A NEW CONCEPT? Surgeon’s role in leadership as it relates to Quality of Care

“End Results” – The Vision

Ernest Amory Codman, MD

5/17/2013 6

"We believe it is the duty of every hospital to establish a follow-up system, so that as far as possible the result of every case will be available at all times for investigation by members of the staff, the trustees, or administration, or by other authorized investigators or statisticians."

Codman’s Books – Reprinted

The Hype:

“Discover the All-Natural Formula that’s Clinically Proven to Help You Retain and Regrow Your Hair. If you are a man concerned about stopping hair loss, Our Product (Procerin) can help. It comes in a convenient tablet form and topical solution that are used daily for the treatment of male hair loss. It is an all-natural supplement available without a prescription. And, it has no side effects.”

National Tour

Collecting health care leadership insights, best-practices and case studies from each tour stop to develop….

Exercising Leadership in QI

Identify practical opportunities for individual surgeons in the areas of

Training Certification Participation in National Programs of Quality Creation of Regional Programs Creation of Local Programs Teamwork

The idea is how can You participate and Become a leader….. Regardless of whether you Work in an Academic or In a Private environment

TRAINING Facing the challenge

Do not just “teach” – use training

Focus on the importance of Quality Make Students-Residents-Fellows participate actively in safety and quality Drive into them the notion of constant change Create the ability to define “gaps” Train to proficiency/competency/expertise

Training and Education of Residents

Knowledge Ability/ dexterity Values and Aptitudes

PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT /MOC

Challenge yourself…..

Introduction of new technology

Is it for you? Is it in your field? Does meet “quality” criteria? Is it a gimmick?

Maintenance of Certification

Use the process to your advantage

  • 4. THE ACS NSQIP

(NATIONAL SURGICAL QUALITY

IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM)

A professional organization meets the Challenge

Program Overview

  • ACS NSQIP is a data-driven,

risk-adjusted, outcomes-based surgical quality improvement program.

Quality Improvement Process

  • 1. Hospitals abstract data.
  • 2. Data are analyzed by ACS NSQIP

.

  • 3. Data are reported back to hospitals.
  • 4. Targets for improvement are identified

5.Hospitals act on their data.

  • 6. Hospitals monitor interventions with data.

Interpretation of Results

Observed to Expected (O/E) Ratio

  • Hospital’s outcomes compared to the other ACS-NSQIP hospitals,

adjusted for inter-hospital differences in patients’ characteristics, comorbidities, and preoperative laboratory values

LOW OUTLIER: If the upper bound of the O/E confidence interval is <1.0, the hospital’s outcomes are statistically better than expected. Thus, the hospital’s outcomes are “Exemplary.” ACS NSQIP Hospital ID Number HIGH OUTLIER: If the lower bound of the O/E ratio is >1.0, the hospital’s outcomes are statistically worse than

  • expected. Thus, the hospital’s outcomes “Need

SURGICAL CARE AND OUTCOMES PROGRAM (SCOAP)

Washington State initiatives to improve surgical outcomes

Focus in process and outcomes Led by Surgeons

What is SCOAP?

A surgeon-led collaborative using a data driven quality surveillance and response system to deliver more appropriate, safer and higher quality surgical care across the Pacific Northwest How does it work?

Surveillance of surgical process and outcome metrics Compares to other hospitals and to benchmarks Focused on a given operation Created and monitored by surgeons

What does SCOAP provide?

  • Washington State program targeting quality and

cost-effectiveness

  • Clinicians define metrics and hospitals track them
  • Improve through benchmarking and intervention

SCOAP Reports SCOAP Regional meetings SCOAP Box newsletters SCOAP Interventions SCOAP ROI

Surgeons Get “Signal”

SCOAP has 3 high-level signals

Red=Metrics that are greater than one standard deviation away from SCOAP average Yellow=Metrics that do not reach the SCOAP average Green= Metrics that meet or exceed the benchmark performance rate Note: Metrics in gray are at least meeting the SCOAP average, but do not meet the benchmark rates

Conclusion

Progress and innovation in science and medicine have outpaced quality improvements in the delivery of care Society is paying attention to the safety, efficacy and compassion with which medicine is applied There is an opportunity for surgeons to make a substantial impact in this area Such an impact requires moving beyond traditional measures Awareness and willingness to join the quality process is a first good step Commitment, not just involvement needed
