Member Engagement:the Roots of Impact
Compassionate Care16
•Wife stated member passed away with Hospice. Much emotional support given to spouse. She talked about what a wonderful life they had together, their children, all of the people's lives that he touched - they were married 49 years last Thursday and each year he would give her a piece of jewelry. On Tuesday when she walked into his room he had a gift and card laying on his chest, a beautiful ring that he had their daughter purchase. She was happy he gave it to her on Tuesday - on Thursday he was not alert. She stated through his business he touched many peoples lives, and they all somehow knew he was sick, and he has received many flowers, meals, fruit, cakes - she stated her lawn had become overgrown and the landscaper came and cleaned up the entire property, planted over 50 mums, placed cornstalks and pumpkins all around. She said she is so grateful for the outpouring of love. Also stated that Hospice was wonderful, as well as everyone at the doctors office, and everyone here at Aetna. {She tells all of her friends that "when you are part of Aetna, you have a lifeline.”} Encouraged her to call CM with any issues or concerns. Closed to Case Management.

Barriers and Solutions• Inability to Identify cases
• Members with Advanced Illness are not engaged in support in a timely manner
• Insufficient communication between case managers and physicians and staff
• Hospice eligibility criteria represent unnecessary barrier
• ID Algorithm, work with physicians to ID cases
• Case manager initiates outreach after verifying case with physician
• Case managers embedded in medical offices
• Liberalize Hospice entry criteria – concurrent care and 12 month course

“In most respects, the patient were like those
found in any ICU...yet these patients were
completely different.”

“But in La Crosse, the system means that people
are far more likely to have talked about what
they want and what they don’t want before they
and their relatives find themselves in the throes
of crisis and fear. When wishes aren’t clear,
families have also become much more receptive
to having the discussion.”

Value of Advanced
Care Planning
Value of respecting or honoring a patient’s values and goals
Avoiding treatments the patient considers burdensome, thus avoiding unnecessary suffering and indignity
Being better able to provide care where the person would want it
Diminishing or eliminating the moral distress and its lasting effects experienced by family or medical staff members who must make healthcare decisions when they do not know what the patient would want

Lessons for Healthcare Systems
Almost all patients and families are willing to consider and talk about future medical decisions IF they see how this effort will improve their own treatment....we
must be able to explain the benefits of the effort of having the conversation to the patient/family.
A standardized, patient-center, staged approach to these advance care planning conversations is crucial (rather than a legalistic approach).
An organized system of work flows, processes, and EMR is needed in all health care settings. The effort of ACP must be built into the routine of care and shown that it improves patient outcomes.
28
![Page 55: 2013 National Summit on Advanced Illness Care](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022103111/54c142d04a79596f5e8b4694/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Lessons for
Healthcare Systems
To be successful with ACP requires the
understanding, support, and involvement of the
whole community and the other institutions that
hold the community together: religious;
business; government; schools; service groups.
In order to actually honor the preferences and
goals of patients/families at the end of life, we
need a delivery system that is more versatile that
can be individualized to the patient’s goals and
health condition.

Lessons for
Healthcare Systems
The health organizations need to develop the “capacity” to assist patients with ACP and to honor plans before any public engagement.
Health organization should involve leaders from other organizations/institutions relatively early in this work and get these leaders on board.
Perhaps two years into the effort, the public at large need to be engaged about the value of this work for them knowing that all major institutions/leaders are supportive.

![Page 57: 2013 National Summit on Advanced Illness Care](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022103111/54c142d04a79596f5e8b4694/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
Lessons for Healthcare Systems
This approach not only insulates health organizations from negative attacks, but can create a more positive image of health care.
The evidence shows that families who face complex, moral/medical decisions are better prepared with effective advance care planning and deal with grief in a healthier way (fewer complications). One might assume that this leads to not only positive feelings toward the health organization who provide end of life care, but also to fewer missed days at work.

Definition: Advance
Directive (AD)
A plan, made by a capable person or their
surrogate, for future medical care regarding
treatments or goals of care for a possible or
probable event.
This plan could be expressed:
Orally or in writing
If written, it could be in strict accord with specific state statutes or simply a documentation of the plan, e.g., a physician’s note.
![Page 59: 2013 National Summit on Advanced Illness Care](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022103111/54c142d04a79596f5e8b4694/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
Definition: Advance
Care Planning (ACP)
A process of planning for future medical
decisions. This process, to be effective, needs
to meet similar standards as the process of
informed consent, i.e., the person planning
needs to... – Understand selected possible future situations and
choices;
– Reason and reflect about what is best; and
– Discuss these choices and plans with those who might need to carry out the plan
![Page 60: 2013 National Summit on Advanced Illness Care](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022103111/54c142d04a79596f5e8b4694/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
Relationship of
ACP to ADs
ADs are only as good as the process of planning:
If the person planning does not understand,
reflect on, or discuss their choices/options adequately, the plan has a high probability of
failure.
ADs success is directly tied to the quality of
the planning process or ACP.

Family Member...
“I just want to thank you again for helping my
Dad. The meeting was just what we needed. It
would have been difficult to broach those
subjects without you there to facilitate. I think
his mind was put to ease by getting everything
out in the open and it led to some very
productive and loving conversations later in the
day.”

C TAC’s Four Key
Areas of Focus Do what works: promote best practice care delivery (the models that work in clinical and community settings) to ensure high-quality, coordinated advanced illness care, across all settings;
Empower the public: help people to understand and make informed choices for themselves and their families and to call for change in care delivery and in policies;
Educate health professionals: to better serve patients and
families/caregivers so people know their options, make informed
choices, get the care they need, and avoid procedures they don’t
want;
Create policy change: develop and advocate for federal and state
legislative, regulatory, judicial, and administrative initiatives, and also
for private policies, to improve care for those with advanced illness.

Fragmentation of Care
People with advanced illness suffer greatly because our current system is fragmented:1.In space…from one setting to another we don’t share a common plan/approach;2.Over time…we don’t keep in tune with individuals changing goals of care;3.By protocol…we provide treatment approaches that are inflexible and at time either/or.

Correcting Fragmentation Requires:
1. A care model that puts the ill person at the center of the care model; and
2. A care team that can deliver this model through time and a cross settings of care in a way that meets the individual goals of each person.
![Page 94: 2013 National Summit on Advanced Illness Care](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022103111/54c142d04a79596f5e8b4694/html5/thumbnails/94.jpg)
A new care model for those with advanced illness requires:
• Care planning build into the routine of care• Care planning is achieved by well organized,
effective conversations with individuals (and those close to them) and are updated over time
• Care planning leads to clear plans• Care plans are always available to providers • Care plans are used thoughtfully when needed• The individual care plans can be met by a flexible
care system where treatments provided are consistent with treatments desired
![Page 95: 2013 National Summit on Advanced Illness Care](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022103111/54c142d04a79596f5e8b4694/html5/thumbnails/95.jpg)
Designing this new model requires
1. We change our approach to the process of care planning…we need a staged approach;
2. We need some fundamental redesign of the care system.

Last StepsACP: Establish a specific plan of care expressed in medical orders using the POLST paradigm.
Adults whom it would not be a surprise if they died in the next
12 months.
Next StepsACP: Determine what goals of treatment should be followed if complications result in “bad” outcomes.
Adults with progressive,life-limiting illness, suffering
frequent complications
First StepsACP: Create POAHC and consider when a serious, permanent neurological injury would change goals of treatment.
Healthy adults between ages 55 and 65 or anyone younger with a serious illness

We also need to…
• Redesign specific workflows, roles, and tools in the health system;
• Train health professionals to conduct the care planning conversations at each stage and to work as a team;
• Provide community engagement;• Improve these new systems through
continuous performance improvement.

Spiritual Support & Cancer
In a large study of advanced cancer patients:
88% said religion was at least somewhat important 72% said their spiritual needs were minimally or not
at all supported by the medical system 42% said their spiritual needs were minimally or not
at all supported by their faith community. Spiritual support was highly associated with QOL.

How do we better integrate hospice into our care?
• Have a “hospice information visit” when we think the person has 3-12 months to live.
• Can’t hurt. OK to predict wrongly.• Can dramatically help
• Makes us address difficult issues like “code status”• Informs family that the situation is serious and their
loved one is dying (moves the angst upstream)• MOLST• Will, Living Will, DPMA, Life Review, Dignity therapy

• fewer than half of baby boomers have discussed their parents’ treatment wishes in the event of terminal illness
• only 40% have discussed their parents’ will
– Adverse health effects (2010 MetLife)
• 8% increased health care expenses—13.4 billion/yr
– Leaving workforce
• Leave of absence (survey showed roughly 25% of caregivers considering and/or planning for it)

Summit GoalsA greater understanding of the issues and challenges, their causes and potential solutions among American society and leadership: health care consumers; faith-based organizations; clinicians; health insurance plans; employers; policy makers; and public advocates, including those representing culturally diverse communities. A shared sense of mission and action steps needed to reform and improve advanced illness care in America, including: system innovations; public engagement; policy changes; and health professional education and support. The emphasis will be on quality care and patient satisfaction, and an agenda that addresses COMMUNITIES, individuals, systems, and policy.

Cost and Benefits
Build on new and existing data from innovative advanced care management models that improve patient/family quality of life, lower costs, and affect other key metrics, to identify ways to improve data and evidence on supporting greater benefit/value through health care reform.
![Page 175: 2013 National Summit on Advanced Illness Care](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022103111/54c142d04a79596f5e8b4694/html5/thumbnails/175.jpg)
Public EngagementHighlight best-practices/innovations in public engagement including: receptive audiences, effective messages, metrics, and dissemination strategies.
Create awareness of the need for programmatic coordination among public engagement initiatives -- specifically, related to developing and coordinating a common language about the terms to use and shared messaging.
![Page 176: 2013 National Summit on Advanced Illness Care](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022103111/54c142d04a79596f5e8b4694/html5/thumbnails/176.jpg)
Professional EducationBuild consensus around the competencies clinicians need to deliver high quality advanced illness care. Raise awareness of existing innovative tools and solutions in clinician support and training. Empower champions within health care systems to advocate for curricula transformation.
![Page 177: 2013 National Summit on Advanced Illness Care](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022103111/54c142d04a79596f5e8b4694/html5/thumbnails/177.jpg)
Clinical ModelsIdentify clinical best practices in caring for people with advanced illness with the potential to effectively serve the advanced illness population across the country. Achieve consensus on common process and outcomes measures that can be used to assess the clinical effectiveness and patient and family satisfaction with treatment of advanced illness. Agree on the structure of a national pilot that can be used to scale and replicate effective innovations in advanced illness care and to create an evidence base that is critical to advocacy for payment reform.

Empowering EmployersThink about ways in which your organization can take steps to increase its support of employee caregivers. This can include items that are top-down such as flexible leave time and geriatric care managers or bottom-up such as brown bag info sessions and support groups. Review the Employer Checklist and share with your colleagues. Take proactive steps to implement one or more of the recommendations.

Faith & DiversityImprove the quality of spiritual care across settings by reducing variations in the quality of care, particularly for traditionally under-served and marginalized populations. Have clergy and faith communities help their members become more health care literate and invite discussion and dialogue about how their faith, beliefs, and values inform their health care choices. Credential clinicians and other health care professionals caring for persons with advanced illness based on their demonstrated ability to provide compassionate, high quality, whole person centered care, and to attend to the physical, psycho-social, and spiritual domains of care.

Policy & AdvocacyIdentify policy barriers to fundamental system change leading to more person-centered, comprehensive, team-based approaches to caring for Americans with advanced illness and lay out a roadmap to reform with legislative and regulatory remedies to overcome those barriers Design a targeted public engagement and advocacy campaign using identified networks and working with messaging experts on communication to create a grassroots and grasstops movement for change
