The Art of Outreach Facilitation
Brief Review thus far• Chronic Disease Model -acute to chronic focus in
approach to health care• Science of Outreach Facilitation- development of
facilitation and how it has been used in prevention services
• Facilitation is an effective and supportive way of changing practice behaviour, as well as being cost effective
![Page 3: The Art of Outreach Facilitation](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102912/5681603d550346895dcf5f63/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
What is a facilitator?
A helper and enabler whose goal is to support others as they achieve exceptional performance.
Facilitation is a way of providing leadership without taking the reins.

IDOCC: Creation of the CCPN• The University of Ottawa Heart Institute
– Prioritized Prevention of CVD – Recognizing the need for a true collaborative approach
• Advent of Local Health Integration Networks– Regionalized focus – Allows for development of Chronic Disease Management in a way that
has never been done before
• Reorganization of Public Health in Ontario and Canada– A focus on integrated approaches to chronic disease prevention– Public Health Agency of Canada, Ministry of Health Promotion
![Page 8: The Art of Outreach Facilitation](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102912/5681603d550346895dcf5f63/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

IDOCC: Recruitment • Complex due to no single entity identifying primary care physicians
• Multiple contacts with OMA, OCFP, CME events, pharmaceutical events,
• Public speaking, promotion through the LHIN, press releases, get opinion leaders and community leaders on board to that they can spread the word and convince their colleagues
• Cold calling- barriers, phone calls, in person visits
• Printed material
• Built our own comprehensive list of primary care physicians
![Page 10: The Art of Outreach Facilitation](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102912/5681603d550346895dcf5f63/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

Evaluation-Key Indicators
• Quality of care process indicators - 29 evidence- and consensus-based indicators chosen to assess whether recommended clinical actions were followed in the clinical situations calling for those actions eg BP taken and recorded at least once in last year
• Outcome of care indicators - 14 evidence-based reflecting whether patients achieved the the recommended treatment goal targets
Source of data: Patient Chart Audit

The Primary Care Environment
A physician who has recently moved to EMR tries desperately to retrieve the patient records he has just lost.
![Page 29: The Art of Outreach Facilitation](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102912/5681603d550346895dcf5f63/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
The Primary Care EnvironmentUnpredictability
•A productive relationship v a “good” relationship
•The agent for change can be anyone in the team.
•Never Never

The facilitator is uncertain where to go next with the practice

2. Payment Models (Ontario)
![Page 33: The Art of Outreach Facilitation](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102912/5681603d550346895dcf5f63/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
2.Payment Models
• FFS- accounts for largest number of practices, physicians and patients seen, no rostering, no other funding
• FHG-(FFS remuneration) but incentives for some conditions, patient rostering, after hours care, THAS, currently some funding for IT
![Page 34: The Art of Outreach Facilitation](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102912/5681603d550346895dcf5f63/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
2.Payment Models
• FHN, FHO-capitation, rostering, prevention and disease management incentives, provider governance, use of IT, some allied health personnel, 24/7 access
• FHT- Capitation or salary, rostering, allied health personnel, prevention and disease management incentives, professional or community governance, IT, 24/7 access
![Page 35: The Art of Outreach Facilitation](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102912/5681603d550346895dcf5f63/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
2.Payment Models• CHC-salaried, rostering (operates within defined community),
incentives, IT, allied health personnel, community governance, 24/7 access
• AHAC-Aboriginal Health Access Centres- similar to CHCs, include traditional aboriginal approaches to health and wellness- salaried
Russell, GM et al 2009, Muldoon L et al 2009
![Page 36: The Art of Outreach Facilitation](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102912/5681603d550346895dcf5f63/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Patient –Physician Perspectives
• Payment model and organization may not affect day to day practice
• A doctor in a FFS, FHG, or FHO may for most purposes work as a solo physician with receptionist and /or nurse
• There may be more similarities across models than within models
![Page 37: The Art of Outreach Facilitation](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102912/5681603d550346895dcf5f63/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

Community•Only CHCs have a “catchment” area•Patients often follow the doctor, therefore the idea of community resources and links becomes complex•Patients find doctors who speak the same language even if geographically distant•Rural/Urban differences•Quebec Patients
![Page 39: The Art of Outreach Facilitation](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102912/5681603d550346895dcf5f63/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)

Culture
• The practice culture (shared beliefs and values embedded within an organization)
• Organisational culture
• Patient culture
![Page 41: The Art of Outreach Facilitation](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102912/5681603d550346895dcf5f63/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
The Primary Care Environment
Culture can influence the types of programs used to assure Quality- survey from 88 medical groups
• Strong Information culture favoured electronic data systems and evidence based data
• Quality centred culture favoured patient satisfaction surveys• Business orientated culture favoured benchmarking• Collegiate culture appeared to rely more on informal peer
review• Autonomous culture negatively associated with all the
programs ( but not significantly so)
![Page 42: The Art of Outreach Facilitation](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102912/5681603d550346895dcf5f63/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Authors Conclusions
• Culture does not make a difference in quality of care and patients safety
• Culture does affect the slow adoption of quality assurance programs
• It is important to consider congruence
Kaissi et al, 2004

The Primary Care Environment
“ …practices often lack the office systems to support improved chronic illness self-management, delegation, care management and systematic tracking to assure optimal processes and outcomes of diabetes care.”
“ Practices operate on a narrow financial margin, have minimal flexibility in resource use and are quite different from those systems in which adoption of chronic care management components have been demonstrated.” Crabtree et al, 2011

• Facilitator can identify and help establish liaisons with these partners and/or find these resources for practice
• Eg. Extra phone billing incentives at time of H1N1• Eg. Referrals to specialist care or community programs

identify, inform and promote• Action plans- ranging from simple to complex, feedback to
patients • Promoting the idea that patient and team are working together
to improve or maintain health- both patients and staff need to agree (attitude change)
• Provide ongoing support for practices and patients

Tailoring
![Page 59: The Art of Outreach Facilitation](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102912/5681603d550346895dcf5f63/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
Tailoring
“Practice assessment and intervention tailoring are complex and intuitive processes and are generally not amenable to linear or sequential steps and simple descriptions”. Ruhe, 2009
“ Tailored interventions have the potential to match motivations and acknowledge conditions within the practice environment that influence and sustain change efforts.” Bobiak, 2009
![Page 60: The Art of Outreach Facilitation](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102912/5681603d550346895dcf5f63/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
Systematic Review, Baker 2009
• 26 studies• Tailored interventions can change professional
practicehowever
• As yet there is insufficient evidence on the most effective approaches to tailoring including how barriers should be identified and how interventions should be selected to address barriers”.
![Page 61: The Art of Outreach Facilitation](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102912/5681603d550346895dcf5f63/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
Tailoring
Interventions can be tailored more effectively by:
Assessing the practice’s capacity for change
Appraising the cultural-structural fit
