National Behavioral Health Network for Tobacco & Cancer Control

An Integrated Approach to Cancer Screening and Prevention in a Community Primary and Behavioral Health System

Pittsburgh Mercy Health System

Alicia Kirley, MBA Director of Integrated Services

• J. Todd Wahrenberger, MD Chief Medical Officer

Pittsburgh Mercy Family Health Center

• A 2010 survey of over 25,000 patients showed that only 50% of

Pittsburgh Mercy Health System service consumers were receiving any routine primary care

• PMFHC opened its doors in May 2012, providing a fully integrated

Primary and Behavioral Health Practice

• Engaging a highly complex population with complex needs takes a

TEAM!

• ACT Model in Primary Care:

> Multi-disciplinary Care Team approach, pulling in resources from all programs > Highly engaging team meets the patient where they are in their lives

5

It takes a team!

Tobacco Cessation and Lung Cancer Screening

• Make tobacco cessation a part of your workflow

> Know your upcoming schedule: is patient a tobacco user? If so, plan to have a TTS or other staff counsel on tobacco use Ask at EVERY encounter! > Create a system for flagging enabling services

• Develop a tobacco cessation protocol that is efficient and

effective

• Track referrals to Tobacco Support Specialists and lung cancer

screens

• Document patient progression through stages of change to

continuously improve your process

Tobacco Screening & Cessation: The Evidence

“In God we trust; all others bring data”

How can you choose the best screening and prevention guidelines?

U.S. Preventative Services Task Force

Recommendations for Grading

There is high certainty that the net benefit is substantial. Offer this service. There is moderate certainty that the net benefit is moderate to

• substantial. Offer this service.

“It depends” there may be a benefit depending on individual patient and their S/S. No benefit and possible harm. Discourage using this service. I Statement: “I/We don’t know”

A B C D I

Breast Cancer Screening

• Referral To:

> Mammogram (Film and Digital)

• Women age 40-49: Grade C recommendation
• Women age 50-74, every 2 years: Grade B recommendation

16

Colorectal Cancer Screening

17

Tobacco Use & Lung Cancer Screening

• Low Dose Computed Tomography (CT Scan): Grade B

> Asymptomatic adults aged 55 to 80 years who have a 1 pack per day for 30 years smoking history > Screen annually > Discontinue screening when the patient has not smoked for 15 years

• Tobacco Use: Grade A

> Questionnaire:

Are you a tobacco user? Frequency and duration Motivation to quit? Counseling and education

18

Cancer Screening (what not to do…)

• Oral Cancer: Grade I
• Ovarian Cancer: Grade D (unless BRCA gene, etc.)
• Pancreatic Cancer: Grade D
• Prostate Cancer PSA Testing: Grade D
• Skin Cancer: Grade I
• Testicular Cancer: Grade D
• Bladder Cancer: Grade I

19

Putting Prevention into Practice

• Embed Tobacco Support Specialists in a variety of settings
• Trainings to all staff to understand screening criteria
• Involve your ENTIRE team
• Use handouts and keep it simple!
• Use charts and graphs to remind yourself
• Utilize EHR alerts and CDSS
• Know the evidence, don’t waste time on practices that have

no evidence, even if they are easy to perform

Why Screening?

People with serious mental illnesses die 25 years earlier on average than the general population

• Medications, especially atypical antipsychotic drugs, effect on weight

gain, dyslipidemia and glucose metabolism

• Modifiable risk factors: High rates of smoking, lack of weight

management/nutrition, and physical inactivity

U.S. Preventive Services Task Force Rankings

Cervical A The USPSTF recommends the service. There is high certainty that the net benefit is substantial. Colorectal Breast B The USPSTF recommends the service. There is high certainty that the net benefit is moderate or there is moderate certainty that the net benefit is moderate to substantial. Lung

Cervical Cancer Screening

• Women ages 21 to 65 years with cytology (Pap smear) every

3 years Or

• For women ages 30 to 65 years who want to lengthen the

screening interval, screening with a combination of cytology and human papillomavirus (HPV) testing every 5 years

Colon Cancer Screening

• Adults age 50 to 75 years

> High-Sensitivity FOBT (Stool Test): Once a year > Flexible Sigmoidoscopy: Every 5 years, with FOBT every 3 years > Colonoscopy: Every 10 years

Breast Cancer Screening

• Women 50-74 years, mammography every 2 years

– Women aged 40-49 years, individualize decision to begin biennial screening according to patient’s circumstances and

• values. (Grade C)

Lung Cancer Screening

• Adults ages 55 to 80 years who have a 30 pack-year

smoking history and currently smoke or have quit within the past 15 years, annual screening with low-dose computed tomography.

> Screening should be discontinued once a person has not smoked for 15 years.

Why Don’t People Get Needed Screenings?

• Fear of results
• Misconceptions
• Embarrassment
• Don’t know they need one
• Access, wait times, prep
• No symptoms
• Costs

What Can We Do About It?

Ability Response

Workflows & System Design

• 1. Tracking system
• Reports, alerts, prompts
• 2. Logistics
• Onsite screening, referral relationships
• Access, scheduling
• 3. Communication
• Multiple touch points
• Roles & responsibilities

“At every opportunity”

Questions to Ask When Developing your Process

• 1. What is our clinic’s approach to whole health & wellness?
• 2. Which screenings will have the greatest impact on our

population, partners and stakeholders?

• 3. How will I know what screenings are due?
• 4. Who does what?
• 5. Who supports & reiterates what?
• 6. What if the patient refuses?
• 7. How can my skills and relationships influence behavior?

Motivational interviewing is a patient-centered, directional method for enhancing intrinsic motivation to change by exploring and resolving ambivalence.

Miller & Rollnick, 2002

Engagement & Messaging

Instead of… Try…

• 1. Can you cut back on your

smoking?

• 1. What are the good things, and the

not so good things about smoking for you?

• 2. Do you know you’re due

for a colonoscopy?

• 2. What do you know about

screening options for colon cancer?

• 3. Why haven’t you had a

mammogram?

• 3. Tell me about your health goals in

relation to prevention & screenings.

Enhancing “Change Talk”

• What would be good about…?
• What else have you been thinking about?
• How might you make the best of it?
• So where does this leave you now?
• What is your next step?

Messaging

• Social Proof
• Authority
• Liking
• Commitment

Social Proof

“We discuss colon cancer screening with all our patients age 50 and older.”

We tend to accept a concept or approach if we know others are doing it

Authority

We respond to those with perceived influence

“The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force recommends yearly screening for people ages 55 to 80 years who have a 30 pack-year smoking history and currently smoke – and even for those who have quit within the past 15 years.”

Liking

We are persuaded by people & things we like “We’ve partnered with mobile mammogram services and they are going to be in our parking lot every Tuesday!”

Commitment

We want to show we honor commitments “Will you stop at the front desk and make an appointment?”

Screening Strategies

 Setting screening goals, posting data, promoting data  Pre-visit planning  Staff training in MI  Staff-developed messaging  Group events (Ladies Spa Night, Men’s Monday)  Awareness promos & blitz campaigns: Buttons, posters, freebees  Birthday postcards  Convenient screening – same day, workplace/onsite
