Denver Health’s Smoke-Free
Campus Policy
Announcement by CEO • Our employees, patients and visitors’ health always comes first…
Denver Health must take a proactive role in addressing the impact of smoking and tobacco use.
• By role modeling as a community and not smoking while at work, we are showing our commitment to keeping our employees, patients and visitors as healthy as possible.
• Before we can ask patients and visitors to follow our policy, we need to do this ourselves.
Tobacco Cessation Workgroup
• Multidisciplinary: Family Medicine, General Internal Medicine, Denver Public Health, Inpatient Provider, Operation Coordinators, Data and Analytic Team, IT (Epic)
• Monthly meetings• Activities
o Metric development ▪ Communications▪ Training/Implementation▪ Monitoring and reporting
o Intervention development▪ Communications▪ Training/Implementation▪ Monitoring and reporting
Tobacco Smoking and Second Hand Smoke Exposure Prevalence
Data represent the last tobacco use / second hand smoke exposure status documeted in LCR for all patients seen in the year prior to the Year-end Date.
• Tobacco use = cigarette, cigar/pipe, chew and/or electronic cigarette use among patients >= 18 years old.
• Smoking = cigarette smoking only among patients >=18 years old.
• Second Hand Smoke Exposure = exposure among patients <= 17 years old w ho don't themselves smoke cigarettes/cigars/pipes.
Systems changes
Patient Handouts
Implementation Process
• Created an algorithm
• Created Educational materials
• Educated providers and clinics with 15 – 30 minute trainings.
Monitoring Process: AAR
Are Medical Assistants asking?
Tobacco Cessation Intervention:
Provider Focus
Denominator:• Patients >=18 years old who smoke cigarettes• Had at least 1 visit in the past month in Ambulatory Care Services
(ACS), Inpatient/ED, Denver Public Health (ID/AIDS clinic), or OBHS• Had at least one other visit in the previous 12 months
Numerator: number of patients in the denominator who had at least 1 tobacco cessation intervention, provided by any care provider in any area, in the 6 months prior their last visit. Tobacco cessation interventions included:• Quitline referral • Tobacco Cessation Clinic referral placed or visit attended• Tobacco counselling• On a medication for tobacco cessation for any length of time during
the 6-month look-back period • Referral to text messaging program• Provided patient educational materials specific to cessation
Monitoring Process: Tobacco Intervention
“Team Approach”
Example using a patient who was seen by 2 different providers in reporting period. Illustrates the team-based approach.
Intervention: Mar 5, 2015
Start: Jun 8, 2015
End: Dec 8, 2015
FAIL for Provider 2
Start: Jul 1, 2015
All patients seen by ACS Providers in 6-month reporting period who had >= 2 visits in past year in ACS and who were >= 19 at end of reporting period.

End: Aug 3, 2015
Take last visit date with each ACS Provider where they had a recorded smoking history:
Look back 6 months for evidence of a smoking intervention* given by any provider.

For the ACS rollup measure, this patient
would PASS since they passed for at least one provider.
Then came a new EHR: Epic
• The focus was to develop a process that transferred our pre-Epic worko Multiple, multiple meetings with Epic
Analystso Competing priorities for changes made it
challenging• Re-training staff on the new process
• Tobacco Cession Intervention• AAR (ongoing)
• Modify monitoring process
Monitoring Process: Ask Cigarette
