Developing a Spread Plan• Is improvement a key strategic initiative?
• Is there a budget for spread?• Has time been allocated for spread?• Are goals and incentives aligned?
• Identify and develop your spread champions.• Leverage your improvement data—tell your
improvement story!• Document your ROI and other benefits.• Measure, show comparative data, and provide
feedback.• Develop learning “communities of practice”
among those with similar roles.
Adoption is a social thing!
A better idea… communicated through a social network… over time.

Tell Us About Your Spread Efforts
Sustaining ImprovementDrop off in measures is common but preventable!• Initial excitement, urgency wear off.• Possible change fatigue.• Pay particular attention to yearly measures (foot
exams, eye exams, LDL tests, etc.) as you approach end of initial 12 months.• If strong system of population management is in place
should not see these decline.• Staff/Provider turnover, particularly among
change leaders.
Use Wedges to Hold the Gains
DATA
Wedges signify making the work routine.No backsliding!

Improvement
Strategies to Hold the Gains• Establish and document standard processes• Make changes to job descriptions• Use measurement and audits• Pay attention to orientation and training• Assign ownership• Address the social aspects of change (who
are the peer leaders, who talks to whom)
Your Sustainability Experience• How are you checking to make sure
changes are sticking?• What kind of shared ownership exists in
your practice for your improvement data?• How have you been documenting revised
processes and revised job duties?
Final Thoughts on Sustainability• Patient engagement!
• Involve patients/families in your improvement efforts.
• Ask them what is working, what is not.• Consider peer-based self-management
support.
