Anyone involved in healthcare knows we need to improve quality and lower
costs—but where do you start? And how do you reduce the time it takes to
realize improvements after deciding on a course of action? Then there’s the
added responsibility of managing the transition to risk-based payment models
where the consequences of getting it wrong increase with each passing year.
For these reasons we feel compelled to break
from our standard webinar routine and present a new webinar, where we will
introduce the Health Catalyst Academy’s Accelerated Practices (AP) Program, a
unique learning experience that has been designed to help you tackle these
problems. First, you will hear from Tommy Prewitt, MD, director of the
Healthcare Delivery Institute at HORNE LLP. He will share his perspective about
the need for change. He will also talk about how programs like ours are critical
to surviving and thriving in this new era of healthcare. Then you will
hear from Bryan Oshiro, MD, senior vice president and chief medical officer of
Health Catalyst. He will explain how the AP Program equips you with the tools
and knowledge to mobilize others in accelerating outcomes improvement work and
sustaining the gains.
Date: Wednesday, May 27, 2015
Time: 1:00–2:00 PM ET
In specific, Tommy Prewitt, MD, will discuss:
- The problems the industry is facing
- How variations in care delivery impact
quality and cost
- The value of giving clinicians the right
tools to effectively use data to drive outcomes improvement
- Sustainable improvements course participants
have achieved by attending HORNE’s Advanced Training Program
In specific, Bryan Oshiro, MD, will discuss:
- The components required to make a quality
improvement training course successful
- The need for course participants to apply the
science of improvement to course projects in a practical, immersive format
- Why leaders need to learn how to understand
the nuances of human behavior as a way to affect positive change
- The return on investment a quality
improvement training program such as Health Catalyst’s Accelerated Practices
(AP) Program provides
- What attendees of the AP Program will learn
Both presenters are graduates of and
proponents for Intermountain’s Advanced Training Program (ATP), a quality
improvement program started by Brent James, MD. Their goals with this webinar
are to give you greater insight to the problems the industry is facing and a
renewed sense of purpose knowing that resources are available to help you
through this challenging time.
We look forward to you joining us.
