Participatory (re)design of a sociotechnical healthcare delivery system: The Group Health Patient-Centered Medical Home
Type:
Journal Article
Year:
2010
Publication Place:
Netherlands
Abstract:
This paper describes one organization's interpretation of the Patient-Centered Medical Home concept and the healthcare delivery system that has emerged from their participatory redesign initiative. Group Health, a large integrated healthcare system based in Seattle, Washington, USA initiated a Patient-Centered Medical Home care delivery system transformation in January 2007. Current theories and evidence about the Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH), the Chronic Care Model, and effective primary care were interpreted via a facilitated group process and translated into a core set of 5 system design principles. These design principles guided all subsequent system transformation activities. The central organizing principle is supporting and sustaining the patient-primary care physician relationship. The emergent PCMH healthcare delivery system comprises both opportunistic point-of-care and outreach components, many of which leverage and enhance the organization's health information and communication technologies.

Partnership work between Public Health and Health Psychology: Introduction to a novel training programme
Type:
Journal Article
Year:
2010
Publication Place:
England
Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Public health services implement individual, community and population level interventions to change health behaviours, improve healthy life expectancy and reduce health inequalities. Understanding and changing health behaviour is complex. Integrating behaviour change theory and evidence into interventions has the potential to improve services. METHODS: Health Psychologists apply evidence and theories aimed at understanding and changing health behaviour. A Scottish programme is piloting the training of Health Psychologists within NHS contexts to address prominent public health challenges. RESULTS: This article outlines the details of this novel programme. Two projects are examined to illustrate the potential of partnership working between public health and health psychology. CONCLUSION: In order to develop and improve behaviour change interventions and services, public health planners may want to consider developing and using the knowledge and skills of Health Psychologists. Supporting such training within public health contexts is a promising avenue to build critical NHS internal mass to tackle the major public health challenges ahead.

Partnerships between health care organizations and medical schools in a rapidly changing environment: A view from the delivery system
Type:
Journal Article
Year:
2004
Publication Place:
United States
Abstract:
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The Undergraduate Medical Education for the 21st Century (UME-21) project encouraged the formation or enhancement of partnerships between medical schools and health care organizations distinct from the traditional teaching hospitals. The purpose was to prepare medical students in nine content areas that were components of the UME-21 project. Despite their importance today to medical schools, such partnerships with health care organizations are a challenge to develop and maintain in the midst of a rapidly changing health care environment. This article categorizes the partnerships formed and discusses the benefits and the barriers encountered in such collaborations. METHODS: Information about the partnerships was abstracted from written reports from each of the UME-21 partner schools. Additional information was obtained from personal communications with external project representatives and from a post-project survey presented to all UME-21 partner schools. RESULTS: The eight partner schools established or enhanced 32 educational partnerships with external organizations. External partner organizations contributed to curriculum planning and implementation, course development and presentation, and provision of clinical sites and preceptors. Twenty-seven of 32 initial affiliations continued in some form beyond the contract period. CONCLUSIONS: Partnerships formed as part of the UME-21 project improved medical students' exposure to the health care system and their knowledge and skills for effective practice in the 21st century health system. Barriers encountered included financial pressures, changes in leadership, different organizational missions and priorities, and preexisting prejudices against new relationships. Factors associated with successful partnerships include the presence of a health care organization and an academic "champion" dedicated to the project, strong individual relationships, and a medical school commitment to involve external partners.
