PFCC Presentation to Masspro: Engaging Patients and Families in Redesigning Care
1. Pamela K. Greenhouse, M.B.A.
Executive Director
PFCC Innovation Center
(greenhousepk@upmc.edu)
Engaging Patients and Families
in Redesigning Care Delivery:
Go Shadow
2. What is UPMC and How Did
PFCC Come About?
• UPMC is a $10 billion global health
enterprise; 55,000 employees; 20
hospitals; 400 clinical locations;
passion for innovation
• PFCC is a grass roots effort; spread
through word of mouth; bottom-up
initiative; now looking at top-down –
meets-bottom-up
3.
4. Why Do We Need to Change?
Just ask patients and
families – we are not
delivering even the
basics well
5. Is Patient Experience Important?
84% of those completing the 2012 HealthLeaders
Media Patient Experience Survey placed patient
experience among their top three priorities.
Yet, 85% said they have not made specific
investments in time or resources for improving
the patient experience in the past year.
The biggest stumbling blocks to creating a
patient experience strategy are “higher priorities”
6. There are successful examples…but
most can’t explicitly explain how
they got there… “no methodology”
Are solutions transferrable?
Everyone’s “current state” is different
There are success stories…
but how can we all get there?
7. We need a new
Operating System
for the delivery of care…
12. The PFCC Methodology
• Singular goal to provide exceptional care
experiences for patients and their
families
• Which also delivers better outcomes and
decreases waste and cost (PFCC Trifecta)
• Re-focus existing resources…does not
require new ones
• Engage patients, families, and care givers
to identify opportunities implement
solutions
13. Common Misconceptions
about PFCC
• Another clinical pathway
• Takes too much time
• Expensive
• Too big an initiative
• PI “flavor of the week”(i.e. TPS,
Lean, CMI, Six Sigma, CQI…)
• Requires renovation or building a
“new” hospital
14. What is a Care Giver?
ANYone in the health
care environment who
affects the patients’
and families’
experience at any
point in their health
care journey
Doctors, nurses,
therapists,
technicians,
housekeepers,
parking attendants,
appointment
schedulers AND
those behind the
scenes – finance
reps, medical records
clerks…

17. Step 1
Define the Care Experience:
Example: Total Joint
Begins:
The initial phone call
for an appointment
Ends:
When the patient
returns to the MD
office for 1 month
follow-up visit

Responsibilities:
• Go Shadow
• Develop the Care Experience Flow Map
• Expand into the PFCC Working Group
• Guide PFCC Working Group
Step 2

Experience Guiding Council
20. Example of Step 2:
Diabetic Care Experience Guiding Council
Administrative Champion =
Vice President, Ambulatory
Services
Clinical Champion =
Program Director, Center for
Diabetes and Endocrinology
PFCC Coordinator =
Practice Manager, Center for

22. What is Shadowing?
Shadowing is repeated
real time
observation of patients
and families as they
move through each step
of their health care
journey
23. Understand the Current
State
• Walk the walk of patients and
families…
• Shadow patients and families through
the selected care experience, record
subjective and objective observations
and insights
• High impact for the $’s and effort
Step 3
24. It’s Easy
“We watch what people do (and do not do) and
listen to what they say (and do not say). The
easiest thing about the search for insight – in
contrast to the search for hard data – is that it’s
everywhere and it’s free.”
“This enlightened perception reveals the
experience, not just the process.”
Tim Brown, Change by Design
25. Who Can Shadow?…Anyone!
Guiding Council and care givers
New hires and light duty staff
Health profession students, volunteers,
summer interns, patient advocates
All of the resources
already exist within our organizations!
27. Re-Shadow Periodically Over Time!
1.Current states change
2. Need to assess whether previous
projects are still in place and relevant
3. Need to assess whether previous
projects achieved what was intended
4.Creates sustainability!
28. Care Experience Flow Maps
• Inefficiencies in processes
• Transitions in care issues
• Communication gaps
• Bottlenecks and redundancies
• Care delivery silos
• Opportunities to improve experiences
and clinical outcomes while decreasing
cost
What they will reveal…
31. If Any Doubts…Go Shadow
• Engages patients and families as
full partners in care delivery
redesign
• Creates empathy and urgency to
drive change
• Establishes true current state
Engage Patients and Families
in Re-Designing Ideal Care
32. A Physician Becomes a Patient
"So now, on the other side of the fence, I have also
been able to think about being a patient, and one
whose life is threatened. I have come to regret how
much better a doctor I might have been, had I been at
the receiving end of medical care earlier in my
career. In the past eighteen months I have learnt as
many lessons from sometimes unwittingly insensitive
doctors and nurses as from many others
whose patience, encouragement and
quiet humor have sustained me through
dark times."
-Elizabeth Bryan

Restructure of Level I Trauma Teams

Black Gold Blue
48. “Patients complained that
they didn’t know who
their doctors were, and
they didn’t know the plan
of care because it
changed depending on
which doctors they saw.”
Patient and MD Partnerships
--Dr. Louis Alarcon, MD
PFCC Champion Trauma Working Group
49. Problems with the Current State
(Old System)
• Patients: “who is my doctor?”, “what is
the plan (trauma and consultants)?”
• Nurses: “which resident is covering this
patient?”
• Attendings: “discovery rounds”, resident
continuity lacking
• Residents: workflow issues, work-hour
violations
• Unpredictable and inconsistent rounding
