5/29/24

CareQuest

June 6^th webinar:  Christine will submit slides May 31^st and await feedback. 

AAPCHO webinars on SDOH went well---

Slow and steady process for collecting SDOH---applying template going well.  No needs for change.

What keeps coming up---how to train staff…why this is important to collect.  Often questions are being collected at different points.

“Housing” and “language” access questions are tricky. 

Scripts will be included in final products for spread/scale. 

Readiness assessment tool is almost ready…KPHC is testing 1^st.  PRAPARE form adapted to test the readiness of staff to use.  Finalized mid-June.

Outline for final report in development.

• Emailed updates:

• Closed Loop Transportation Project Update

  • AAPCHO met with KPHC today and discussed the progress of the closed loop tracking system. They shared their draft reports targeting diabetes and hypertension measures. They are working on additional revisions to include not only transportation (the focus of this project)  but other SDOH measures. 

  • To better understand KPHC staff implementation experiences, KPHC completed their staff process evaluation after making suggestions to shorten AAPCHO’s original survey. Results were generally positive (details below).

    • There were 20 total responses, and 60% of respondents identified as "Clinical Support Staff."

    • Mostly all the participants felt that it was "very easy" and "somewhat easy" to complete the SDOH Template

    • Mostly all the participants felt that it was "very comfortable" and "somewhat comfortable" for the patients to answer questions in the SDOH Template

    • 65% or 13 participants answered that it was "somewhat easy" for the patients to understand the questions -- 3 participants said "very easy"; 3 participants said "somewhat difficult"

    • On average, 45% of participants reported that patient's "some of the time" refuse to answer a question on the SDOH Template; 50% of the participants said "rarely/never"

    • As for analyzing some of the comments, some respondents shared that some patients may misinterpret questions due to language barriers, and sometimes they're more open to answer these questions with their providers. In some cases, with explanations of the questions for patients with language barriers, it may take longer to get through the SDOH Template questions.

  • We are prepping for the webinar in May to get input from other stakeholders. We’ve sent KPHC a ppt template for them to complete and they are working on their draft.

• Idea - If we standardize measure and workflow, this is what can happen in 3, 6 months

  • Who have we asked?

• AAPCHO did paper on PRAPARE on screening rates

• “Closing the loop” - we asked HCs what vaccines they keep on site and which they refer, asked if they closed the loop

  • Of the patients referred out, how many were also asked about transportation issues, were they addressed, and if so, what was the immunization outcome?

  • A lot of patients can be lost to follow up, want to make sure that loop is closed - what percent of patients actually went by the recommendation, didn’t? A lot of different scenarios

  • We have tools on self-inventory and referral

• Narrow it to prototype we can scale after - by disease, age group?

  • Focus by payer?

• NACHC will send publication list to Rosy once
