Ongoing Efforts at
Cleveland Clinic
• Initiatives align with goals and metrics
from Affordable Care Act
– Patient experience / HCAHPS
– Access to care
– Readmissions
• What’s next?
Targeted Counseling
Targeted Counseling
Med Rec
Target:
Discrepancies
Discharge
Counseling
Target: HCAHPS
First Dose
Teaching
Target: HCAHPS
• For home-going patients:
• Review discharge prescriptions
• Ensure clear medication list and instructions for
discharge
• Use electronic health record to prioritize work
• For home-going patients:
• Education on medication purpose and side effects
• Reinforce after-hospital medication-related follow up
plans
• Use electronic health record to prioritize work
• For all neurology patients, educate on:
• Anticonvulsants
• Antidepressants
• Antipsychotics
• Use electronic health record to identify inpatient
orders
Impact - HCAHPS
• Counseling 4-6 patients per day
- ~66% capture rate of home discharges
Highest-ever
98th percentile
Bedside Delivery of Medications
• Bedside delivery option for discharge
prescriptions
– Program targets discharging patients to
improve access to medications and increase
compliance
– Assures patient has tools necessary to
continue medication therapy plan after
discharge
Bedside Delivery Win-Win
• Large increases in revenue for pharmacy
department
– 13% return on investment
• Large patient satisfier
– 98% would recommend
Pharmacy Heart Failure Education
• Patients with actively managed heart
failure (HF)
– Multi-disciplinary discharge checklist
– Pharmacy education as required element
• Hard stop in electronic health record if
pharmacist education not documented
What’s Next?
• HCAHPS remains a high focus of the
enterprise
– COPD education
– Targeted expansion to high-risk patients
using complexity score
• Medication reconciliation
• Patient counseling
• Messaging: No quick fix – follow the data,
adjust the focus
What’s Next?
• Patient safety indicators
• Readmissions
• Increasing emphasis on hospital acquired
infections
– Pharmacist role?
