The Model for Improvement (MFI)
Reference The Improvement Guide A Practical
Approach to Enhancing Organizational Performance-
2nd Edition. Langley GJ, Nolan KM, Nolan TW,
Norman CL, Provost LP. San Francisco
Jossey-Bass 2009
4
What are we trying to accomplish?
  • Understand the Model for Improvement
  • Experience running PDSA cycles
  • Start an improvement charter

5
Prerequisites of transformational improvement
  • Will to do what it takes to change to a new
    system
  • Ideas on which to base the design of the new
    system
  • Execution of the ideas

6
Characteristics of the Model for Improvement
  • Action-oriented What are you going to test
    next Tuesday
  • Rapid-cycle testing of changes
  • Evaluation and revision of all changes before
    implementation
  • Testing and implementing the changes in small
    populations, then spreading then spreading to the
    larger population
  • Impact evaluated using annotated run charts
  • Monthly reporting of tests and outcomes

7
Three fundamental questions for improvement
  • What are we trying to accomplish?
  • How will we know that a change is an improvement?
  • What changes can we make that will result in an
    improvement?

8
What are we trying to accomplish?
  • Develop an aim statement

9
Establish the aim
  • Involve senior leaders
  • Focus on issues that are important to your
    organization
  • Write a clear statement of aim with numerical
    goals
  • Guidance include anything to keep the effort
    focused (location, strategies, client
    populations, office, spread plans, etc.)

10
Template
  • We aim to improve _________(name the process or
    topic) in _____(location) so that _________ (a
    numerical goal). By working on the process, we
    expect ____________(list benefits). It is
    important to work on this now because
    ________(list imperatives.) Some things we have
    to keep in mind as we work are _______ (guidance
    scope).

11
Example aim statement
  • Improve the patient partnership in our office so
    that in one year
  • Decrease no-show rate by 50
  • 80 of patients have a self-management goal
  • 40 of patients have improved self-confidence
  • 75 say they would recommend us to a friend
  • Guidance
  • Budget, personnel
  • size start with 5 patients with diabetes and
    expand to all patients with diabetes in the
    practice

12
How do we know that a change is an improvement?
  • Measurement tells us whether or not we are
    hitting our target

13
Measurement guidelines
  • Need a balanced set of 4 to 7 measures report
    weekly or monthly to assure that system is
    improved
  • Measures should reflect aim statement be
    specific
  • Integrate measurement into routine
  • Plot data for the measures over time and annotate
    graph with changes
  • Post run charts where others can see update
    regularly

14
Types of measures
  • Outcome measures
  • Results - system level performance
  • Process measures
  • Inform changes to the system
  • Balancing measures
  • Unintended consequences
  • What you are afraid might happen to another
    part of the system

15
Measurement example
16
The improvement charter
  • One or 2 page document
  • Aim statement (answers question 1)
  • Guidance
  • 4-7 measures (answers question 2)
  • Who is on the team leader, content experts,
    front line staff
  • Can include run charts and be a record of what
    was accomplished

17
Improvement Charter Template Team name here
Date What are we trying to accomplish? Our Aim
Statement is TEMPLATE We aim to improve
_________(name the process or topic) in
_____(location) so that _________ (a numerical
goal). By working on the process, we expect
____________(list benefits). It is important to
work on this now because ________(list
imperatives.) Some things we have to keep in
mind as we work are _______ (guidance
scope). How will we know that a change is an
improvement? Our measures are The recommended
number of measures is 4-7. A balanced
measurement set includes 1-3 process measures,
at least one outcome measure and a balancing
measure. Consider the triple aim, which is an
example of a balanced set of measures clinical
outcome, patient provider experience and cost.
  • Team Members (Names and Roles)
  • Who are the right people to make this happen?
    Look at the process you are improving and assure
    that those affected by the process are included.
  • Organizational leadersnames
  • Clinical Expertisenames
  • Key staffnames
  • Client representative--names
  • Tips
  • Try to keep charter to one page (front and back
    is okay)
  • Should be understandable to anyone, including the
    public
  • Reviewed and accepted by leadership
  • If you want to make a report about your
    improvement effort, add the ideas you tested and
    the graphs of your results.

18
What changes can we make that willresult in
improvement?
  • The clinical ideas for excellent care
  • Ideas about processes
  • Models

19
The PDSA cycle Plan, Do, Study, Act
  • Also known as
  • Shewhart Cycle
  • Deming Cycle
  • Learning Improvement Cycle

20
Use the PDSA cycle to
  • Answer first two questions
  • Develop a change
  • Test a change
  • Implement a change
  • Spread a change

21
Why test?
  • Increase the belief that the change will result
    in improvement
  • Predict how much improvement can be expected from
    the change
  • Learn how to adapt the change to conditions in
    the local environment
  • Evaluate costs and side-effects of the change
  • Minimize resistance upon implementation

22
The PDSA cycle
Act
Plan
  • Objective
  • Questions and
  • predictions (why)
  • Plan to carry out
  • the cycle (who,
  • what, where, when)
  • What changes
  • are to be made?
  • Next cycle?

Study
Do
  • Complete the
  • analysis of the data
  • Compare data to
  • predictions
  • Summarize what
  • was learned
  • Carry out the plan
  • Document problems
  • and unexpected
  • observations
  • Begin analysis
  • of the data

23
Repeated use of the PDSA cycle
Changes that result in improvement
DATA
Implementation of change
Wide-scale tests of change
Hunches theories ideas
Follow-up tests
Very small scale test
24
Do Study
  • Reasons for failed tests
  • 1. Change not executed well
  • 2. Support processes inadequate
  • 3. Hypothesis/hunch wrong
  • Change executed but did not result in local
    improvement
  • Local improvement did not impact our measures
  • Collect data during the Do phase of the cycle to
    help differentiate these situations.

25
Measurement and data collection during PDSA
cycles
  • Collect useful data, not perfect data - the
    purpose of the data is learning, not evaluation
  • Use sampling as part of the plan to collect data
  • Use qualitative data rather than wait for
    quantitative
  • Record what went wrong during data collection
  • Use paper pencil until information system is
    ready

26
Successful cycles to test changes
  • Plan multiple cycles for a test of a change
  • Think a couple of cycles ahead
  • Scale down size of test ( of patients, location)
  • Do not try to get buy-in, consensus, etc.
  • Be innovative to make test feasible
  • Collect useful data during each test
  • Test over a wide range of conditions

What are we trying to accomplish?Aim Statement
Characteristics
  • States that we are going to improve care for
    patients (knowledge, skills, and resource
    availability related to management of youth
    depression and anxiety in GP offices).
  • Describes the target population for improvement
    (provider and patient).
  • Describes in general terms changes we are going
    to use to improve care for the population (Youth
    Depression and Anxiety Change)
  • Describes the most important outcomes (measures)
    that we want to improve for the population that
    define our success (Use of screening and
    diagnostic tools, treatment plans, support
    mechanisms, improved patient experience, etc.).

35
The Fundamental Questions for Improvement
  • What are we trying to accomplish?
  • How will we know that a change is an improvement?

    improvement?

36
What are we trying to accomplish?Youth
Depression Aim Statement
  • Aim The care for youth with depression in the
    Killarney HS will be redesigned by increasing GP
    capacity in the provision of youth mental health
    services including a coordinated effort amongst
    GPs, school personnel, and community mental
    health providers. A youth depression change
    package will be used so that GPs increase the use
    of depression screening tools, diagnostic tools,
    treatment interventions, and coordinate care
    with school personnel and mental health
    specialists. Change will be evidenced by
    improved GP capacity, improved access for youth
    with depression, and improved youth /family
    experience.
