Clinicians have to make difficult decisions on a regular basis. And when
different clinicians within the same health system make markedly different
decisions about medical treatment, significant waste and inconsistent
outcomes arise.
Join Dr. Timothy Sielaff (CMO & SVP Specialty Care and Research) and Dr. Anna
Kleckner (MPH, PhD, Evidence-Based Practice Consultant) as they share how Allina
Health is tackling this variation with evidence-based decision-making (EBDM)
models and clinical practice guidelines (CPGs).
Date: Wednesday, April 27, 2016
Time: 1:00–2:30 PM ET
Specifically, these outstanding presenters will discuss the following:
-
Establishing peer-reviewed and approved CPGs
-
Prioritizing improvements
-
Developing the CPG checklist
-
Engaging and collaborating with clinicians
Don't miss hearing firsthand how Allina established a systemwide EBDM model and
realized a five percent decrease in Stage 1 lung cancer treatment variation as
well as a 20 percent decrease in the number of heparin protocols.
