Q&A

Q: for Elizabeth- are the CHW's using the same EMR as PCPs?
A: Yes! The CHWs spend a little time in clinic, where they do their charting and talk directly with the PCP/care teams

Q for Emily - can you tell us what the medication quality measure is that you’re using in the run charts? Is it med rec?
A: I see you answered it! It’s high risk meds - I’m assuming this is from the Beers criteria.
A: We pull data on all the medication on the IHI list, so if the patient is on 1 or more of the medications, then they are considered to have not met the measure. I know that is more strict that the goal of the M, which is medication review, but it was the best way for us to capture the data.
