NPSF Best Practices in Clinical Test Results - Closing the Loop in Communications
The purpose of this talk is to provide insight on the improvement opportunities identified by NQF Safe Practices research. These relate to closing the communication loop and set the context as to what will be expected from groups like Leapfrog, which are using the SP to measure where organizations/hospitals are on their safety journey.
MPSC Conference - Baltimore, MD - March 30, 2006
Enabling Solutions: Your Instruments of Change
As the measures, standards, and practices of safety and quality converge into "harmony"; providers will need to center their focus on the best or better practices that deliver verifiable impact on outcomes, process, structure, and patient centered measures. They must identify the products, services, and technologies that truly enable those practices so that they can reduce harm, save lives, save money, and deliver value to the communities they serve.
Leadership, Values and Technology
The goal off this session was to create energy, leadership and commitment among transplant programs, organ procurement organizations and hospitals for using technology to maximize the number of life-saving organs transplanted from each and every donor. Participants also learned from the experience of the airline industry and one of its key leaders how to use technology, in combination with skills, expertise and knowledge to push the envelope on performance and results.
Quality and Safety as an Issue in Public Policy
The purpose of the presentation was to discuss the key issues of Patient Safety and Quality and how those are impacting public policy making.

Innovation Adoption: Turning Barriers into Accelerators
Health care has a very slow innovation adoption
rate due to complexity and bureaucratic inertia. The four barrier categories of innovation adoption
are awareness, accountability, ability and action — but they can just as easily be transformed into
accelerators of adoption. The breaking news in pay-for-performance will be provided as the important financial context for discussing innovation adoption.
The four barriers will be addressed using specific academic health care examples and an approach to turning these adoption barriers into accelerators will be defined.
After attending the session, you will gain an appreciation for the economics of health care innovation adoption in an academic institution, receive several examples of successful applications of the 4A Adoption
Accelerator Model and get a framework to apply the model in your own institution.
Breaking News in Pay-for-Performance: How to use P4P as a Roadmap for Market Success
