1 Process we are using: A3 Thinking 1.Reason for Action Chief complaint 4.Gap Analysis Chasm between Current & Target 7.Completion Plan Project plan 2.Initial State Current process 5.Solution Approach Hypothesis 8.Confirmed State Sustainment measures 3.Target State By how much to improve? 6.Rapid Experiments 9.INSIGHTS Learnings & spread
2 REASON FOR ACTION We cause patient harm through vaccine errors including: Wrong order Wrong vaccine Wrong interval/time Wrong route Wrong patient Wrong dose Missed opportunity Incorrect/failures in storage Incorrect labeling/stocking Wrong documentation
3 This interdisciplinary team is seeking to design ideal workflows Specifically: Define vaccine process for CHMG Standardized storage: same storage and labeling for all vaccines at every practice based on template Dedicated oversight of vaccine process Clear role definition of vaccine coordinator with supervision and monitoring by Clinical Leader Each practice is responsible to report compliance Develop a CHMG standard of practice for vaccine management and administration Education Competency Ongoing auditing of vaccine process elements 3
4 CURRENT STATE Quality & Safety Recent errors related to: Administration of incorrect vaccine with look-alike/sound-alike names TDap vs Td vs DTap vs dt Pediatric vs Adult formulations and doses
5 CURRENT STATE Quality & Safety Source: PIDS data
6 CURRENT STATE Quality & Safety Recent errors related to: Reconstitution of HIB vaccine with non-hib sterile diluent
7 CURRENT STATE Quality & Safety: Family Health Center Concord Pediatric Flu HepatitisA Hepatitis B Pediarix (Dtap, IPV, Hep B combo) Varivax Adult Flu Hepatitis A Hepatitis B TwinRix (HepA/B combo) Zostavax # instances any of these vaccines are administered = Data taken from Vaccine Estimates Family Health Center
8 CURRENT STATE Quality & Safety Min = 6.6 fc Data from Fall 2013 measurements, Facilities
9 CURRENT STATE Effectiveness *Does not include FHC-Concord s Large Storage Refrigerator 4 practices do not have freezers Data from Fall 2013 measurements, Facilities
10 CURRENT STATE Effectiveness Vaccine Refrigerators
11 CURRENT STATE Effectiveness Vaccine Refrigerators
12 CURRENT STATE Timeliness & Effectiveness Recent errors related to: Administration of vaccines at incorrect intervals Administration of HIB diluent to patient in lieu of HIB vaccine
13 CURRENT STATE Human Development 24% of staff who administer vaccines have taken the CHMG Immunization Basics Class
14 CURRENT STATE Financial Sources: vaccines and doses on hand at FHC-Concord; McKesson pricing per dose
15 CURRENT STATE Financial Practice F Practice G Practice H Practice I Practice M Practice N Practice J Practice J Practice K Practice L Practice L Practice L Practice M Source: CHMG Practice reports and Pharmacy ordering reports
16 CURRENT STATE MAP
17 IDEAL STATE Pictorial & Attributes
18 FUTURE STATE MAP 50,000 Ft Level
19 TARGET STATE Target Current Metrics: Quality / Patient Safety FY 2013 Timeliness / Effectiveness 2013 Satisfaction / Team Development 2013 Financial / Growth 2013 Independent double-checks prior to vaccine administration 100% standardized Non-standard % of CHMG employees who administer vaccines attend Immunization Basics class Reduce financial impact of equipment-related storage malfunction/error (by use of pharmacy-grade refrigerators throughout CHMG primary care practices) Standardized labeling for all CHMG Primary Care vaccine refrigerators 100% of new hires beginning June % as of 04/11/14 50% $46, % standardized Non-standard Watch Metrics Increase in event reporting 01/01/ /01/2014 = 104 events reported 19
20 GAP ANALYSIS Phase 1 Parking LOT? ( ) A standardized process for moving vaccines when power outage expected Phase 2 Computerized order entry in CHMG A dedicated vaccine prep area that provides interruption-free work time A standardized procedure for vaccine administration Dedicated, uninterrupted time from vaccine order administration and documentation completed Best practice/evidence-based process Standardized set up of vaccine prep areas with visual management Standardized patient education Barcoding New EHR Establish min/max amounts for inventory process in collaboration with CH Pharmacy and NHIP
21 Parking Lot 1 Barcoding 2 New EHR 3 Establish min/max amounts for inventory process in collaboration with CH Pharmacy and NHIP 4 A standardized process for moving vaccines when power outage expected 5 Computerized order entry in CHMG 6 Lighting that meets industry standards 7 A dedicated vaccine prep area that provides interruption-free work time 8 A computer system that clearly showed the vaccines due 9 Barcoding for vaccines throughout CHMG 10 Variance of handouts end of visit summary 11 Cramped exam rooms 12 Limited exam room for post-vaccine monitoring 13 Comfort items (Child Life Specialist) 14 Outdated Centricity forms 15 Varying EMR tools populate flowsheetdifferently 16 Appt start times: consider accounting for Reg and MA time prior to provider visit (ie. Backing up appt time to accommodate)
22 SOLUTIONS APPROACH Item # If we had Then (expected Results) Wireless temperature monitoring, Standardized, pharmacy-grade refrigerators, A standardized process for vaccine storage and layout, Standardized staff reference tools throughout CHMG Independent double-checks Phase 1 Phase 2 A standardized process for moving vaccines when power outage expected Computerized order entry in CHMG Lighting that meets industry standards A dedicated vaccine prep area that provides interruption-free work time A standardized procedure for vaccine administration Dedicated, uninterrupted time from vaccine order administration and documentation completed Best practice/evidence-based process Standardized set up of vaccine prep areas with visual management Standardized patient education A computer system that clearly showed the vaccines due Barcoding for vaccines throughout CHMG Feasibility TBD We could be notified of temperature variances sooner We would have more reliable vaccine storage We would have few mistakes related to selection We would have up-to-date, standardized staff guidance Fewer errors would reach the patient We would reduce our cost associated with vaccine replacement We would have fewer ordering errors We would reduced our vaccine prep errors We would have fewer vaccine errors Variation could be eliminated and correct process would be clear Supply readiness would be obvious at a glance We would have up-to-date, standardized patient guidance We would have fewer ordering errors We would have fewer vaccine errors reach the patient 22
