Background

  • Patient‐Centered Medical Homes (PCMH)
  • Coordinated, accessible, team‐based care
  • Better clinical quality and lower cost
  • May reduce over utilization of health care services
  • Challenges for care provision for older adults
  • Providing care coordination
  • Scheduling longer appointments

Background

  • Development of innovative Geriatric Patient‐

Aligned Care Team (GeriPACT) model in VHA

  • Team composition
  • Panel size
  • Advanced geriatrics training
  • Opportunity to look at potential benefits of

GeriPACT model

Methods ‐ Site Selection

  • 8 sites strongly aligned with the GeriPACT

Operations Handbook

  • Sites varied on
  • Patient Aligned Care Team (PACT) Access
  • Team functioning

Methods ‐ Sample

Key informants included:

  • GeriPACT physician leaders
  • GeriPACT team members
  • Other staff working with GeriPACT
  • Referring providers
  • Executive and middle managers

SLIDE 9

Methods ‐ Data Collection

  • 2‐day in‐person site visits (11/2016‐2/2017)
  • 2 site visitors
  • Interview guide based on CFIR constructs
  • Interviews recorded and transcribed

SLIDE 10

Methods ‐ Data Analysis

  • Deductive coding based on CFIR constructs
  • CFIR construct summaries reviewed for each site
  • Site data reduced by:
  • creating construct summaries
  • supporting evidence and ratings into a matrix by site
  • Cross site summary created and ratings compared

Knowledge and Beliefs

“Some of the unique services that we're able to provide through GeriPACT interactions between the clinicians, social workers, and pharmacy include better management of social needs of the patient, additional supports in the home, and support for polypharmacy"

14

slide-15
SLIDE 15

Knowledge and Beliefs

  • Committed to caring for older Veterans
  • Knew patients well
  • Valued focus on collaborative care

15

slide-16
SLIDE 16

Relative Advantage

“In comparison to PACT, GeriPACT is a special team devoted to the frail or elderly population that have geriatric syndromes, that are better served by an interdisciplinary team than from a standalone provider"

16

slide-17
SLIDE 17

Relative Advantage

In comparison to PACT, staff reported:

  • Higher levels of rapport with Veterans
  • Additional available resources
  • Social worker
  • Pharmacist
  • Staff trained in geriatrics

17

Culture

"The values that VHA has are at the heart of everything that we do. In our clinic, we definitely are here to serve veterans, show compassion….we’re advocates for our patients"

18

slide-19
SLIDE 19

Culture

  • Fit with VHA’s mission
  • Fit with commitment to interdisciplinary team‐based

approach

slide-20
SLIDE 20

Learning Climate

“We work well together….we get along. If we don’t agree with something, we discuss and then everyone has input and we come out with a solution."

20

slide-21
SLIDE 21

Learning Climate

  • Positive learning environment
  • Leaders willing to listen to staff
  • Open discussions
  • Staff felt comfortable giving input
  • Team members felt providers respected them

Champions/Opinion Leaders/ Implementation Leaders

“It took staff buy‐in and support from our leaders. For example, our Nurse Manager is really good at escorting and encouraging , being on top of things, and making sure things are working…she rolls up her sleeves and gets in and helps out. She's always open for talking if there's an issue."

22

slide-23
SLIDE 23

Champions/Opinion Leaders/ Implementation Leaders

  • Many types of advocates
  • Leaders (Medical Directors and/or Service Line Leads)
  • Enthusiastic and committed front‐line team members

Negative CFIR Influence: Relative Priority

“Staff got split and spread…it's not best…it's competing priorities so depending on who the administrator is, the short‐term goals, the medical center priorities, geriatrics is not always…the resources aren't always

  • there. In fact, we have experienced a resource

reduction."

24

slide-25
SLIDE 25

Relative Priority

  • Many programs competing for resources
  • Priority on pressing needs
  • Performance and productivity metrics were less

applicable

25

slide-26
SLIDE 26

Conclusion

  • Variation in GeriPACT model implementation
  • Successful GeriPACTs:
  • fit within their organizational setting
  • have teams dedicated to the model and Veterans
  • Implementation limited by relative priority of

GeriPACT implementation

  • More research focused on how these variations may

affect patient outcomes
