Focused execution drives the value equation: NCQA Results (current)
Based on 2016 NCQA data. NCQA is a private, non‐profit organization dedicated to improving health care quality. NCQA accredits and certifies a wide range of health care organizations. It also recognizes clinicians and practices in key areas of performance. NCQA’s Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS®) is the most widely used performance measurement tool in health care. Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (CAHPS®) is a registered trademark of the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ).

Leadership:What leadership roles should physicians play within the health-care system, and what capabilities and skills do physicians need to fill these roles?

The Unique Qualities of Permanente Medicine
Physician responsibility for quality, service, design of operations and cost of care
Physician leaders emerge from clinical ranks; professionals leading professionals
Accountability exercised through self-managed and self-governed medical groups
Culture of both collective and individual physician accountability
Multispecialty Physician Leadership is King 20
• Performance matters
• “Value” is not a bad word
• Teamwork improves performance ( sacrosanct physician “autonomy” is not synonymous with quality)
• Integrate providers to improve communication and close gaps in care
• Maintain the altruistic vision
• Patients ALWAYS First 21
An Homage to Dr. Thomas Lee, formerly of Partners Medical Group: “Turning Doctors Into Leaders,” Harvard Business Review, March 2010
Actions…• Executives set bold goals & the context
within a broad vision Belief in what is achievable is source-based.
• Managerial governance in physician hands Ownership = Responsibility = Action
• Local leaders should have significant autonomy, but accountability still held firm A prescriptive approach merely “talks down to” a highly educated, motivated group… they just want the tools!
Physician Leadership Key Take-Aways
Set a high bar & clear vision
Set the What…not the How
Learn from each other
Principles
22
A Theory of Lofty Goal Setting
Rapid performance improvement requires lofty, not the proverbial “achievable,” goal setting. That does not mean that lofty goals are not achievable. But unambitious goals will bring unambitious progress.
Locke, “Towards a Theory of Task Motivation and Incentives,” 1968Locke and Latham, A Theory of Goal Setting and Task Performance, 1990“clarity, challenge, commitment, feedback, complexity”
Collins and Porras, “big, hairy , audacious goals”, or BHAG’s, in Built To Last, 1994
Amabile and Kramer, “progress, not praise,” HBR, January 2010
23
Focus, focus, focus – on flawless execution of a limited set of imperatives
It’s not enough to think Big Thoughts –implementation must be a core competency.
• A less-than-generous observation - lots of people like to dream up solutions, but fewer are willing to do the hard work of rolling up sleeves and getting it done. Reward the do-ers.
Think BIG, Start small, Move fast; if something is “imperative,” must create a sense of urgency around it
General Observations About Any Worthy Endeavor
24
Relationships:
How can physicians be more fully integrated into the system, and how can the system better partner with physicians?
25
Kaiser Permanente’s Secret Sauce –Dyad Leadership in Healthcare
• Physicians have decision-making authority over strategy development, finance, quality, care delivery, and more
• Every function has representation from both Kaiser Foundation Health Plan and Medical Group
26
Physician Leadership and Involvement in Integrated Aligned System
• Aside from being direct care providers, physicians are involved in all aspects of the KP framework, from Benefits Committee (insurance coverage determinations), to resource stewardship, to capital planning, to quality improvement, and exercise primary authority over billions of dollars of KP revenue.
27
Data and accountability:What data and analysis supports are needed to help physicians build evidence-informed improvement into practice? What does accountability look like within a redesigned system?
28
Get it.
Share it.
Use it…
and
Data without leadership is just computer code.**
** Corollary: FOCUS and execution beat Big Thoughts
every day.
KP “Secrets” to Using DATA To Improve Care and Value
really,and relentlessly.
29
Ask the right questions, so you can set the right goals
Which correlates best with favorable patient perception of speed of access to services?
1. Number of patients seen in a defined time interval
2. Actual length of interval to first available appointment
Get it
30
Share the Data
Tailored to needs
Push it out,and deposit it
Challenge all to “Match the
best”
Local/regionalGroup/individual
In their handsIn the library
Transparency
Share it
31
Getting the Data Right:Practice “data humility”
• It won’t always be right the first time
• Encourage people to find the mistakes
• Be transparent about correcting it
32
FACT: Most low performers don’t know that they are, because no one ever told them.
If you don’t provide individual-level and unblinded data, everyone assumes it’s the “other guy” who’s “bringing down the average”.
Feedback is a Gift

34
Actions…Data & Reporting Key Take-Aways
If you want to move something, measure it; you won’t move it unless you do
‘Some’ is not a number; ‘soon’ is not a due date – be specific in goal setting
You need both macro & granular results
Put the data right in the hands of influencers
Transparency… High & low performers should meet each other, and talk
Practice data humility
Pick your key metrics; set clear, specific goals
Be relentless in communication about patient care as driver for what we do, why we do it
Publicly report at geographic, department, team, & individual levels
Establish repository for reports so people have a reference library of performance
Challenge everyone to match the performance of the best
Publicly recognize and celebrate success! Actually use your data
Principles
35
Compensation:How can we best align physician compensation models with improvements in patient care and physician work-life balance?
36
Incentives
“Just the way we do things around here.”
Not really
37
Driving Performance through Culture• Permanente physicians are all salaried, based
on competitive salaries in their specialties and geographic areas, and receive generous benefit packages.
• A small incentive bonus (usually less than 10%) is awarded if both the facility (practice site) and the individual physician achieve some specific quality and patient experience measures at the individual, department, and facility levels.
• Their performance in these areas compared to local and regional averages affects their bonus as well as their annual pay increase.
Payment scheme should favor the interests of patients (altruism).38
Physician Leadership Compensation
• Remunerated appropriately to convey and endorse policy, sanction change, and execute plans – in short, take on the mantle of leadership
• Protected administrative time to manage and lead a group to high levels of performance
