Here’s a 2024 #Healthcare Prediction from Greg Samios, President and CEO of Clinical Effectiveness at Wolters Kluwer Health: We predict as healthcare explores #GenAI and patient care, the source and vetting of the underlying content will become a key factor in the speed in which it is deployed. https://lnkd.in/eYX9QVHn

Great post as always Helen Bevan. The 2nd and 3rd points are most important (I think?) as separate bureaucratic infrastructures (like a "Quality team"), no matter how well intentioned or talented, can perhaps set up a culture where the people most able to make effective changes do not see it as a core part of their role. Not mentioned here (but perhaps embedded in the financial considerations in the first point?) are the valid concerns that improvement work will lead to jobs disappearing, or perhaps "wasteful" work being replaced with work that is markedly worse than the status quo. I wonder if this latest wave of "AI related lay-offs" in the private sector will lead to further reluctance to participate in improvement activities, and if so, what could be done to consider these relatively new influential factors like AI forward?

QIIP made strides in On with the distribution of Quality coaches to primary care aligned with dedicated QI staff and resources to other sectors. Unfortunately, with the emphasis, albeit needed, to create standards with Heslth Quality On, the resources and staff expertise were removed from primary care. This left busy clinicians to be “one man bands” trying to do KT of staff and patients, implementation of standards, stewardship of system resources, and monitoring and interpretation of data in their practices. This is not in my eyes a gap of knowing standards but rather not having a business model that affords QI staff or resources. When we talk of current over head funding, we talk of what doctors report now, not where we hope they will aspire to be. Current overhead does not include QI. Practice facilitation has been shown to be a good approach but the lack of ownership on “who pays” is a barrier that has been in spin for over 1.5 decades. Fund practice facilitation that includes QI coach and resources and you will implement standards. Value QI by paying time spent by doctors. For chronic disease standard implementation fund Best Care and SCOPE both are evidence based primary care programs.

So true of any teams that focus on change & improvement including OD & QI & strategy… value isn’t just in direct financial savings but releasing time, innovation & creative, sustainable solutions
