Practice Transformation - Brave New World
We constantly see practices stumble over new regulations, become frustrated with the complexity of incentive programs and get overwhelmed by ever-changing expectations from payers. There are paths available to build a highly functional practice that meet new competitive and regulatory pressures while improving practice vitality. In this session, we will look at three models of practice design that have been shown to improve efficiency and effectiveness in primary care. Using principles from the Future of Family Medicine model, the Enhanced Primary Care model and the Institute of Healthcare Improvement, we will discuss the elements of practice design that increase productivity while avoiding change fatigue and restoring the "Fourth Aim" - improving the work life of healthcare clinicians and staff.
