Planning the scale-up of integrated care programs: A qualitative multiple-case study of case management for adults with complex needs in Quebec, Canada

Type: Journal Article

Authors: C. Hudon, A. Lemay-Compagnat, M. Bisson, M. C. Chouinard, G. Moullec, Rodriguez Del Barrio, É Angrignon-Girouard, M. D. Poirier, M. M. Pratte

Year: 2025

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Adults with complex needs require health and social services from a variety of providers. Appropriate care for these people calls for integrated care. However, few studies have assessed the organizational conditions conducive to implementing integrated care programs in preparation for scale-up. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to 1) implement a case management program as part of an integrated care program initiative for adults with complex needs in health and social services organizations and primary care clinics, 2) evaluate the organizational factors influencing implementation, and 3) share recommendations from key stakeholders to facilitate scale-up. METHODS: A qualitative multiple-case study was conducted in two health and social services organizations and five primary care clinics in Quebec, Canada. We collected data through participant observation, semi-structured interviews, and focus groups with stakeholders. The data were analyzed using deductive (RE-AIM framework) and inductive thematic analysis. Case stories were developed and then compared. RESULTS: Identifying patients targeted by the program was challenging. Better access to health information technology for case-finding was strongly recommended. Remuneration methods compatible with family physicians' expected levels of commitment to the program were needed to promote their engagement. Appropriate change management was also important to promote implementation and ensure sustainability of the program over time. CONCLUSION: This study may inform stakeholders interested in scaling up integrated care programs for adults with complex needs.

Plausibility of patient-centred care in high-intensity methadone treatment: reflections of providers and patients

Type: Journal Article

Authors: K. Marshall, G. Maina, J. Sherstobitoff

Year: 2021

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Patients with opioid use disorder (OUD) often have complex health care needs. Methadone is one of the medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD) used in the management of OUDs. Highly restrictive methadone treatment-which requires patient compliance with many rules of care-often results in low retention, especially if there is inadequate support from healthcare providers (HCPs). Nevertheless, HCPs should strive to offer patient-centred care (PCC) as it is deemed the gold standard to care. Such an approach can encourage patients to be actively involved in their care, ultimately increasing retention and yielding positive treatment outcomes. METHODS: In this secondary analysis, we aimed to explore how HCPs were applying the principles of PCC when caring for patients with OUD in a highly restrictive, biomedical and paternalistic setting. We applied Mead and Bower's PCC framework in the secondary analysis of 40 in-depth, semi-structured interviews with both HCPs and patients. RESULTS: We present how PCC's concepts of; (a) biopsychosocial perspective; (b) patient as a person; (c) sharing power and responsibility; (d) therapeutic alliance and (e) doctor as a person-are applied in a methadone treatment program. We identified both opportunities and barriers to providing PCC in these settings. CONCLUSION: In a highly restrictive methadone treatment program, full implementation of PCC is not possible. However, implementation of some aspects of PCC are possible to improve patient empowerment and engagement with care, possibly leading to increase in retention and better treatment outcomes.

Policies related to opioid agonist therapy for opioid use disorders: The evolution of state policies from 2004 to 2013

Type: Journal Article

Year: 2016

Publication Place: United States

Abstract: BACKGROUND: State Medicaid policies play an important role in Medicaid enrollees' access to and use of opioid agonists, such as methadone and buprenorphine, in the treatment of opioid use disorders. Little information is available, however, regarding the evolution of state policies facilitating or hindering access to opioid agonists among Medicaid enrollees. METHODS: During 2013-2014, we surveyed state Medicaid officials and other designated state substance abuse treatment specialists about their state's recent history of Medicaid coverage and policies pertaining to methadone and buprenorphine. We describe the evolution of such coverage and policies and present an overview of the Medicaid policy environment with respect to opioid agonist therapy from 2004 to 2013. RESULTS: Among our sample of 45 states with information on buprenorphine and methadone coverage, we found a gradual trend toward adoption of coverage for opioid agonist therapies in state Medicaid agencies. In 2013, only 11% of states in our sample (n = 5) had Medicaid policies that excluded coverage for methadone and buprenorphine, whereas 71% (n = 32) had adopted or maintained policies to cover both buprenorphine and methadone among Medicaid enrollees. We also noted an increase in policies over the time period that may have hindered access to buprenorphine and/or methadone. CONCLUSIONS: There appears to be a trend for states to enact policies increasing Medicaid coverage of opioid agonist therapies, while in recent years also enacting policies, such as prior authorization requirements, that potentially serve as barriers to opioid agonist therapy utilization. Greater empirical information about the potential benefits and potential unintended consequences of such policies can provide policymakers and others with a more informed understanding of their policy decisions.

Policy challenges in building the medical home: Do we have a shared blueprint?

Type: Journal Article

Authors: R. J. Stenger, J. E. DeVoe

Year: 2010

Abstract: BACKGROUND: The notion of a patient-centered medical home features prominently in policy reform initiatives across the country, with both state and federal legislation focusing on this new model. We sought to understand the views of key stakeholders and to examine the challenging landscape facing policymakers and practitioners as they attempt to translate the medical home concept into widespread practice change. METHODS: We reviewed legislative documents from state legislative sessions in the year 2007 to identify pieces of legislation that included the medical home concept. Concurrently we conducted an in-depth qualitative analysis of de-identified field notes from a purposeful sample of semistructured interviews conducted with key stakeholders in Oregon after the passage of health reform legislation in 2007. RESULTS: Legislation that further defined and expounded on the medical home concept was introduced in states across the country in 2007, and some federal and state demonstration projects were already underway. However, we identified a number of barriers to widespread implementation of the medical home, most notably lack of a clear operational definition. Key stakeholders had widely disparate views about elements central to the success of medical home demonstrations, including delivery system reform, payment reform, and performance incentives for providers. CONCLUSIONS: Since 2007 the concept of the medical home has gained increasing attention in health care reform debates. Our findings suggest that translating this concept into successful, widespread reform will require that policymakers build further consensus among key stakeholders and require them to address critical barriers to avoid repeating pitfalls of past reform efforts.
