commissioning systems to reveal problems in safety

Atticus Finch, To Kill A Mockingbird

August 2013
Berwick report

• Former President and CEO of IHI
• Administrator for centres of Medicare and
Medicaid services (CMS)
• Asked by PM as an independent perspective,
how ‘to make zero harm a reality in our NHS’
• Delivered August 2013
Berwick report - recommendations
1. Embrace ethic of learning
2. Quality of care, in particular patient safety, a top
priority
3. Patients and their carers should be present, powerful
and involved at all levels of HCOs
4. Sufficient staff
5. Quality and patient safety science and practice part of
lifelong education of all HCPs
Berwick report - recommendations
6. NHS as a learning organisation with support for change
7. Transparency should be complete, timely and
unequivocally shared with the public
8. All organisations should seek out patient and carer
voice
9. Regulatory systems should be simple and clear,
avoiding diffusion of responsibility
10. Responsive regulation of organisations
What does this actually mean for me?
• What was the last audit/project you did?
• Why did you do it?
• Who benefitted most – the patient…the
department…you? How do you know this?
• If you had asked the patients on your ward what
you should do as a project – what might they have
said? If you had done this, would have made
things better for your patients?
Keogh Review
• Feb 2013 -> July 2013
• Review hospitals with persistently high
mortality rates post Francis Report
• 14 trust reviewed
– Hard data and soft intelligence
– MDT planned and unannounced visits
– Listening – focus group/community
– Risk summit – coordinated plan of action
Mortality rate
• Is it of any use?
• What is the correct measurement?
– HSMR – Hospital Standardised Mortality Ratio
•
•
•
•
Hospital deaths
56 diagnosis groups (80% of deaths)
Allowances for palliative care
If observed = (standardised) expected deaths = 100
– SHMI – Summary Hospital-level Mortality Indicator
•
•
•
•
30 days of discharge
All diagnosis groups (100% deaths)
No allowance for palliative care
Ratio of observed death compared to expected (risk-adjusted
model) deaths. Expected deaths = 1
