Cross-Part Quality Management Plan Development 2. Our Commitment!! 3. Successful PDSA & QI Projects • • CAREWare Training Syphilis QI Data 4. Excellent Data Analysis (thank you Mike Ostapoff!) 5. QA Self Assessment Scores Improved! 18 New Jersey Jane Caruso 19 New Jersey Partners Funding streams create silos Breaking down silos through partnership Share data and best practices Coordinate efforts & promote a statewide delivery system geared towards improving patient outcomes. 20 The Cross Part Model A team of dedicated and diverse leaders is needed to provide support and guidance to the network of providers who can impact change. Integrated efforts bring improved outcomes to fruition NJ Collaborative Team: The roots of innovation for improved service delivery 21 40 agencies providing medical care are each now a branch on the same tree Services are the trunk support of positive client outcomes A common work plan with different approaches Sample PDSA cycle 22 Results When all providers unite in one effort to promote the improvement of one medical care indicator, results are realized.
