1 MSHO Performance Improvement Project March 3 26 & April 6, 26 Project Overview March 3, 26 & April 6, 26 Welcome! Introductions Food/Facilities Project Overview CEU s Evaluations 1 2 Objectives for Training History Understand the Performance Improvement Project (PIP) process Increase knowledge of the importance of pneumococcal vaccine (PPV) for MSHO members Understand the PPV administration protocol and the options available Understand the Care Coordinators role and documentation requirements for the project CMS requirement for Medicaid programs administered by states Annual program Must be approved by DHS in collaboration with MPRO Program must demonstrate sustained statistical improvement Several health plans may work together on MSHO projects UCare, Medica, and MHP 3 4 Rationale for choosing disease causes approximately 4, deaths Vaccination MSHO Performance Improvement Project each year in this country [1] 5% of unvaccinated elderly didn't know they need PPV 59% say their provider didn t recommend it 47% believe they are not likely to get pneumonia [2] In 24, 67.9% of Minnesotans reported having received the Kristin L. Nichol, MD, MPH, MBA Professor of Medicine, University of Minnesota Chief of Medicine, Minneapolis VA Medical Cente Chair, MCAI pneumococcal vaccination [3] Claim rate from the Health Plans in estimated to be low 2% 5 6 1
