项目摘要

Background: The Office of Primary Care (OPC) is charged with overseeing primary care in the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). In 2010, VA primary care moved to a medical home model called the Patient Aligned Care Team (PACT). Over 5.7 million Veterans are assigned, or “empaneled”, to a primary care provider and team. Current VA panel sizes are based on historic means and there are concerns that these metrics should be updated given high rates of burnout among primary care providers. However, the evidence base is thin, and a recent a recent HSR&D Evidence Synthesis Program (ESP) report calls for greater evidence to manage the primary care work force of 7,995 primary care physicians and providers (PCP). Significance/Impact: This study will assist the VA with managing its primary care workforce to balance the needs for efficiency and the wellness of the workforce. The novel methods in this study will set the stage for future randomized program evaluations that can test ways to improve efficiency and outcomes for providers and patients. Innovation: The goal of the proposed study is to provide foundational evidence on primary care panel size by adapting and extending a recently developed methodology to assess the workload of primary care patients. The results of this study have a high probability of immediate impact in the VA by informing primary care work force management, in addition to providing evidence that longitudinal patient histories can be used to estimate time and workload for primary care panels. Specific Aims: Aim 1: To describe weekly demand, weekly capacity, and weekly overflow (i.e., demand > capacity) for every PCP and how these parameters vary by PCP, by team, by clinic and by health care system. Aim 2: To determine whether system-level funding is associated with PCP overflow. We will examine the association between the system funding and PCP overflow. Aim 3: To identify which patient events are leading to overflow. This aim examines random variation in weekly patient flow to determine whether random “shocks” in patient events are leading to overflow. Aim 4: To examine overflow in relation to workforce health, measured by provider burnout and turnover. Methodology: The proposed study extends a recently developed methodology to assess the workload of primary care patients and use this workload to develop time estimates for caring for populations of patients. This approach, recently published by Rossi et al. (2018), uses longitudinal data to enumerate patient-related events, or transactions, including both face to face visits and non-face to face care. These transactions are then combined with time estimates per transaction to determine the time it would take to care for a panel of patients. The method provides information on the flow of patients and the demand on primary care providers, and allows for calculation of overflow, where demand would exceed capacity to supply services. We have piloted this method in one health care system in VA and have demonstrated the feasibility of using this method for VA data and have calculated plausible estimates for overflow hours. Implementation/Next steps: The current proposal builds a methodology for tracking panel management. These results have implications for primary care workforce management in VA and other large integrated health systems. It will be through future randomized program evaluations, in combination with the tools we are building, that we will be able to understand the causal effects of policies on PCP productivity, while tracking adverse outcomes.
背景:初级保健办公室(OPC)负责监督卫生部的初级保健。 退伍军人事务部(VA)。2010年,VA初级保健转向了名为Patient Aligned的医疗家庭模式 护理队。超过570万退伍军人被分配或“任命”给初级保健提供者, 团队目前的VA面板大小基于历史平均值,有人担心这些指标应该 鉴于初级保健提供者的高倦怠率,应更新这一信息。然而,证据基础薄弱, 最近的一份HSR&D证据综合计划(ESP)报告呼吁提供更多的证据来管理 7,995名初级保健医生和提供者(PCP)的初级保健工作队伍。 意义/影响:本研究将协助VA管理其初级保健工作人员,以平衡 对效率和劳动力健康的需求。这项研究中的新方法将为以下方面奠定基础: 未来的随机计划评估,可以测试如何提高效率和结果的供应商 和病人。 创新:拟议研究的目标是通过以下方式提供有关初级保健小组规模的基础证据: 调整和扩展最近开发的方法,以评估基层护理病人的工作量。 这项研究的结果有很高的概率立即影响退伍军人事务部通知初级保健工作 力管理,除了提供证据,纵向病人的历史,可以用来估计 时间和工作量的初级保健小组。 具体目标:目标1:描述每周需求、每周容量和每周溢出(即,需求> 以及这些参数如何因PCP、团队、诊所和医疗保健系统而变化。 目标2:确定系统一级供资是否与五氯苯酚溢出有关。我们会研究 系统资金和PCP溢出之间的关联。目的3:确定哪些患者事件 导致溢出。该目标检查每周患者流量的随机变化,以确定是否是随机的 患者事件中的“冲击”导致溢出。目标4:审查与劳动力健康有关的溢出问题, 通过提供者的倦怠和营业额来衡量。 方法:拟议的研究扩展了最近制定的方法,以评估 初级护理患者,并使用此工作量来估计护理患者群体的时间。 Rossi等人(2018)最近发表的这种方法使用纵向数据来列举患者相关的 事件或交易,包括面对面访问和非面对面护理。这些交易是 然后结合每笔交易的时间估计,以确定照顾一组 患者该方法提供了关于病人流量和对初级保健提供者的需求的信息, 并且允许在需求将超过提供服务的能力的情况下计算溢出。我们有 我在弗吉尼亚州的一个医疗保健系统中试用了这种方法,并证明了使用这种方法的可行性 并计算了溢出小时的合理估计。 实施/后续步骤:目前的提案建立了跟踪小组管理的方法。 这些结果对VA和其他大型综合医院的初级保健劳动力管理具有影响。 卫生系统。它将通过未来的随机项目评估,结合我们正在使用的工具, 建设,我们将能够了解政策对PCP生产力的因果影响,同时跟踪 不良后果。
