Simply adding an onsite / near site clinic or a Direct Primary Care (DPC) strategy won't reduce an employers costs. Our leading broker partners have been using onsite/near site/DPC strategies as part of a strategy to reduce healthcare costs for years. Alithias Board member and investor, John Torinus (Chairman of Serigraph), was a pioneer of this strategy over 20 years ago. What John learned is that simply offering a primary care alternative doesn't reduce healthcare costs. If your benefits consultant suggests this strategy it's critical you remember these four facts: 1) Managing primary care costs is just part of a broader cost containment strategy that will NOT reduce costs on it's own. 2) Offering easier access to primary care through onsite/near site/DPC may INCREASE medical spend in the near term. 3) Onsite/near site/ DPC providers in the clinic often have NO information about who the local high value, high quality specialist options are. 4) If your onsite/near site clinic is affiliated or sponsored by a local health system, expect referrals to that health system to increase, regardless of the cost or quality of the care. Alithias has found that our employer clients incorporating onsite/near site/DPC as part of their cost containment strategy can be effective, but only if the employer also incorporates certain other strategies as well. I will breakdown how to address each of the above limitations to an onsite/near site/ DPC strategy in a subsequent post.

One common misconception about eCQM reporting, and the necessary QRDA I files produced by certified EMR systems, is that these QRDA I files are aggregated for the population. This is not the case. QRDA 1 files are per patient, per measure, and the quantity of these files can add up quickly with large populations.

Understanding the Basics: What is Healthcare Quality Improvement? In the realm of healthcare, quality improvement stands as a cornerstone of providing optimal patient care. But what exactly does it entail? At its core, healthcare quality improvement is a systematic approach to enhancing the effectiveness, efficiency, safety, and patient-centeredness of healthcare delivery. It encompasses a range of methodologies, tools, and strategies aimed at identifying areas for improvement, implementing changes, and evaluating outcomes to continuously enhance the quality of care. Quality improvement in healthcare is not a new concept. Its roots can be traced back to the early 20th century with pioneers like Florence Nightingale, who emphasized the importance of sanitation and hygiene in healthcare settings. Since then, quality improvement initiatives have evolved significantly, influenced by various factors including advances in medical technology, changes in healthcare policy and regulation, and shifts in patient expectations. Today, healthcare quality improvement is guided by key principles such as patient safety, evidence-based practice, teamwork and collaboration, and continuous learning and adaptation. It involves the active participation of healthcare professionals at all levels, from frontline staff to senior leaders, as well as engagement with patients and their families. One of the fundamental aspects of healthcare quality improvement is the use of data to drive decision-making. By collecting and analyzing data related to processes, outcomes, and patient experiences, healthcare organizations can identify opportunities for improvement, track progress over time, and make informed decisions about interventions. In essence, healthcare quality improvement is not just a goal to strive for but a journey of ongoing improvement. By embracing a culture of continuous learning, innovation, and accountability, healthcare providers can deliver safer, more effective, and more patient-centered care, ultimately improving outcomes for individuals and communities alike.
