Improvement Methodology
• A goal is a desired result the workgroup
envisions, plans and commits to achieve an
organizational desired end-point by a specified
deadline.
• AIM statements are written, measurable, and
time-sensitive objectives that move the team
toward achieving the goal .

CV Heart Failure
Goal: Decrease 30 day readmission rates of heart
failure patients
Establish a baseline of all cause 30
day readmission rates for HF
patients, create and validate 30 day
and 90 day readmission rates for all
HF patients.
AIM #1
AIM #2
AIM #3

7
CV Heart Failure
failure patients
Identify high risk heart failure
patients and extend the
identification of these patients to a
Risk Stratification Model to predict
the likelihood of all cause 30-day
readmission rates.
AIM #1
AIM #2
AIM #3

8
CV Heart Failure
failure patients
Schedule a follow-up appointment
for all HF patients within 24 hours of
discharge with a focus on high risk
patients being seen within 48-72
hours after discharge.
AIM #1
AIM #2
AIM #3

AIM #3
Establish a medication reconciliation
baseline and track compliance in
order to achieve 75% compliance by
X date.

AIM #5
AIM #4
A follow-up phone call from a nurse
post-discharge to assess whether
the patient has obtained his/her
medication and has no barriers to
making their follow-up appointment.

Two Important Questions…
• Why is a deployment system
necessary?
• What is the most important ingredient to
make a deployment system successful?

Why is a deployment system
necessary?
To spread best practice…
…to sustain improvements..
…and to support continuous learning and
continuous improvement.

For different results, something
has to change…
“Insanity is doing the same thing over and over
and expecting different results.”
Albert Einstein
"Every system is perfectly designed to get the
results it gets."
Paul Batalden, MD

Outcome of a Traditional Deployment System

Characteristics of a
typical team
• Temporarily
assigned
• No technical team
members
• Approach work like
a project (one-time
event)
• No analytic system

Levels of Engagement
Engaged

• Hungry for best practice
• Committed to continuous learning
Disengaged∧
Traditional Craft of Medicine
Accepting the need for change;
more team oriented, data-driven
profession style of practice
• Less hungry
• “Do it my way”
Traditional Craft of Medicine
Need to be convinced a new way
is necessary; want to be shown it
is necessary and that it works

Engaging the “Smart Cogs”
Focus on the opinion leaders
2º
Many studies have looked at how these groups differ:
• Innovators are highly cosmopolitan and open to new things.
• Early adopters tend to be opinion leaders.
• Early majority provide “legitimization” of the innovation.
• Late majority are skeptical.
• Laggards put trust in the status quo.
Innovations do not
spread equally over
different society
segments (social
groups),but through 5
stages with a particular
profile of reaction.

20% adoption

Two additional points…
We are never too old or too young
We achieve the most when we get together
and figure out best practice.

Poll Questions
2. Does your organization have the necessary
organizational structure that not only supports the
spread of innovation and improvement, but also
allows improvements to be sustained over time?
79 Respondents
a. 5 – Definitely – 15%
b. 4 – 17%
c. 3 – 31%
d. 2 – 27%
e. 1 – Not at all – 11%
