| Scope of Work | ||
| NACHC and contractor will apply Human Centered Design Framework tools and strategies to develop a rapid cycle intervention through peer learning, iterative data submission and QI strategies, data dictionary, and clinical/data/quality measure workflow improvements. Results will include improved screening, testing, diagnoses, treatment, and SVR achievement within the Hepatitis C Care Cascade. Health center teams and IT staff iteratively extract data that supports shared health care decisions for patients and providers and enables the closure of care gaps. These data inform a proactive Hepatitis C “clinic” facilitated by the health centers that is both provider- and patient-centric. | ||
| Deliverables: | ||
| Task 1: Health center engagement for project work | ||
| · Identify 2-3 health centers within network that have a need for hepatitis intervention testing | ||
| · Identify Hepatitis C team (staff/roles) | ||
| · Establish project goal for HCCN and participating health centers | ||
| · Submit 2-3 personas highlighting specified populations who are at high-risk for Hepatitis C | ||
| · Map clinical workflow and dataflows and identify areas of improvement | ||
| · Create an implementation plan for proposed improvements | ||
| · Conduct baseline data pull using Data Dictionary and Data Pull Instructions provided by NACHC. | ||
| · Finalize an implementation plan for the QI implementation | ||
| Products: | ||
| o Engagement of 2-3 health center sites to work on Hepatitis intervention testing | ||
| o Monthly NACHC/Network meetings | ||
| o 2-3 persons (one per health center site) | ||
| o Baseline hepatitis clinical and data workflows for each selected site | ||
| o Quality Implementation and intervention plan | ||
| o Structure of Hepatitis team | ||
| Due Date: February 15, 2021 | ||
| Amount: $45,000 | ||
| Task 2: Implement Quality Improvement Strategy to identify and close gaps in hepatitis care | ||
| · Convene participant health centers monthly to design and test interventions | ||
| · Share lessons learned, facilitators, barriers, and best practices | ||
| · Provide monthly data extracts using NACHCs data dictionary and data pull instructions | ||
| · Provide feedback on data capture, process and mapping for hepatitis care processes and practices | ||
| · Implement an iterative process of using data to drive improvement of hepatitis screening, diagnosis, linkage, and if possible, treatment | ||
| Products: | ||
| o Monthly NACHC/Network meetings | ||
| o Submit detailed dataflow identifying how each Hepatitis C cascade elements is measured. | ||
| o Quarterly All-Participant meetings, including health center representation | ||
| o Summary of lessons learned challenges and best practices | ||
| o Monthly data extracts of QI metrics to NACHC | ||
| Due Date: May 30, 2021 | ||
| Amount: $50,000 | ||
| Task 3: Identify potential solutions and recommendations for scale and spread of hepatitis care | ||
| · Identifying gaps in evidence-based care using quality measures and responding to them using a human-centered approach. Evaluate the impact of the QI intervention | ||
| · Submit post-initiative data on lessons learned, and experience around hepatitis care | ||
| · Contribute to the QI Toolkit to reflect the care team and patient experience, challenges and recommendations for sustainability and scale. | ||
| Products: | ||
| o Monthly NACHC/Network meetings | ||
| o Quarterly All-Participant meetings, including health center representation | ||
| o Monthly data extracts and lessons learned | ||
| o Final report highlighting results of Quality Improvement Interventions aligning clinical, data, and quality metric workflows | ||
| o Participate in Harvest Meeting with NACHC, CDC, and health center sites | ||
| Due Date: July 31, 2021 | ||
| Amount: $50,000 |
