Lessons from 1st PCMH Demo • Becoming a PCMH requires transformation (not incremental change) • Technology needed for PCMH is not “plug & play” • Transformation to PCMH requires personal transformation (esp. physicians!) • Change fatigue is serious concern • Transformation to PCMH is developmental process, & local process • The medical home is not something that can be “installed”
Lessons Learned fromMaine PCMH Pilot • Change starts with effective leadership – clinician, administrative, and organizational • Recognize risks of “change overload” – need to focus, prioritize, sequence change efforts • Recognize that successful change happens only through effective teams (make changes with people, not to people) • Recognize value of external & internal QI coaching
Change is Hard • Hard to change your shorts while running! (and hard to practice while practicing) • PCMH requires practice and personal change • People fear change (loss) - any change
Sustaining Change is Even Harder! • PCMH requires transformation, not incremental change • Making many changes is harder than single change • Sustaining change can be exhausting • Marathon, not a sprint!
Next Steps • Participate in practice on-site assessment (Sept-Dec) • Attend monthly “ramp-up” team calls/webinars (2nd Thurs each month, 7:30A & 4:30P) • Plan for leadership team to attend Expansion Launch – November 16, 2012 Augusta Civic Center • Hold your own team meetings (ideally, weekly!), spread communications about Pilot across team
Summing Up: Medical Home Is Where… • Patients feel welcomed • Staff takes pleasure in working • Physicians feel energized every day 28
