2003 HCSDB ResultsAccess / Wait Times
  • Health plan ratings for all TRICARE enrollment
    groups have increased from levels in 2001.
  • Active duty have the lowest health plan and
    getting healthcare access ratings.
  • MTF users are no more likely than users of
    civilian or VA facilities to report long waits in
    doctors offices, but are more likely to report
    long waits for appointments and that their
    doctors visits are too short.

7
2003 HCSDB ResultsContinuity/Care/Service
  • Most active duty Prime enrollees do not have a
    personal doctor or nurse, nor do one-third of
    non-active duty enrollees.
  • Breast and cervical cancer screening rates of
    both active duty women and dependents of active
    duty exceed Healthy People 2010 goals, but rates
    of first trimester pregnancy care fall short of
    the national benchmark.
  • Since 1999, the proportion of TRICARE users who
    report that claims handling is correct and timely
    has gone up every year.

OB/GYN Care Facts
  • Childbirth is the primary reason for
    hospitalization in the United States and in the
    Military Health System (MHS). It accounts for 40
    of the health care in the MHS.
  • Obstetrical care is often the first experience a
    family member has with the military health care.
    Impressions of these encounters can affect health
    care decisions following childbirth.
  • National Defense Authorization Act for 2002
    created the opportunity for TRICARE Standard
    patients to obtain obstetric without a
    non-availability statement from a military
    hospital. This was effective December 28, 2003.

20
Standards for OB/GYN Care
  • Prior studies have shown that OB/GYN customer
    service has lagged behind the civilian sector.
  • The Family Centered Care Policy which was enacted
    in January, 2004 is focused on improving early
    intervention and continuity of obstetrical care
    by offering comprehensive coordinated service.
  • Little data at present due to recent start.
    Ancedotal evidence is available regarding MTFs
    that have started and/or enhanced their programs.

21
Partial List of New Standards
  • Continuity of Care with the same provider/small
    group no fewer than 75 of routine visits.
  • Follow-on appointments available prior to leaving
    clinic.
  • DoD/VA Clinical Practice Guidelines for
    uncomplicated pregnancies.
  • Steamlined DEERS Registration for the newborn.
  • 24/7 Lactation Support.

22
Civilian Comparison Data
  • National Perinatal Information Center (NPIC)
    contract for 2002 data. Compared 22 MTFs with OB
    services to comparable civilian facilities
    regarding case mix and outcomes. Study to be
    repeated in 2004.
  • Preliminary results show that these MTFs are very
    similar in types of OB patients seen and the
    outcome of care.

23
Civilian-Military Studies
  • Medical Team Training Combined study of 15
    military and civilian hospital Labor and Delivery
    Units to study how teamwork among staff may
    reduces errors and affect outcomes. Based on
    model utilized at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical
    Center (Boston, MA).
  • Results pending summer, 2004.
  • Concepts can be used in other hospital settings,
    e.g. Operating Suites, Intensive Care, etc.

24
Summary
  • Be the provider of choice for our military
    families.
  • Recognize where we must do better.
  • Examine not only our perinatal care, but other
    types of care for quality processes,
    effectiveness and results.
  • Continue with surveys, research and trying new
    things!
  • Share successful approaches to care such as group
    prenatal support visits, Daddy Bootcamp and
    recapturing neonate intensive care patients.
