1 American Academy of Pediatrics Chapter Quality Network Practice Improvement to Address Adolescent Substance Use Request for Applications (RFA) Application Deadline: July 15, 5:00PM CST Project Summary The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) is pleased to announce the launch of the Chapter Quality Network (CQN) Practice Improvement to Address Adolescent Substance Use (PIAASU) learning collaborative. The purpose of the PIAASU project is to improve care for adolescents with substance use and mental health concerns. The AAP will collaborate with 4 chapters to increase the use of validated screening tools, successful brief intervention techniques, and referral to treatment for substance use and mental health concerns among pediatric practices. Chapter and practice teams will have the opportunity to participate in a learning collaborative based on the Institute for Healthcare Improvement s Breakthrough Series Model, which includes a chapter leadership training at the AAP headquarters in Elk Grove Village, Illinois, 4 practice learning sessions, and monthly calls at both the chapter and practice levels. Chapter teams will be required to recruit pediatric practices for the project. With coaching from the chapter project leadership, practices will systematically change their practice by repeatedly conducting small tests of change and collecting data (Plan-Do-Study-Act cycles). Practice participation will begin in December 2015 and continue through May Through participation in the project, chapter project leaders will form a community that works together to develop a new model of service for chapter members. Chapter project teams will expand their quality improvement (QI) knowledge, gain leadership skills, and develop their capacity to support member practices in QI efforts, therefore, increasing the value of membership. The 4 selected chapters will each receive a stipend of $30,000 to help defray the costs of undertaking this effort. Chapter participation will begin September 2015 and continue through June Additionally, the AAP, as an approved portfolio sponsor, will offer American Board of Pediatrics Maintenance of Certification (ABP MOC) Part 4 credit (if approved) to pediatricians who complete the requirements of this 2 year project. The AAP will also apply for 20 credits of Performance Improvement Continuing Medical Education (PI CME) for clinicians who complete the entire project (including presence at 4 learning sessions). The CQN PIAASU project will provide the selected chapters with tools, educational resources, technical support, and access to a data collection system to lead this QI effort. Support for the project includes access to the national AAP team, including a QI advisor and coach, who will assist practices in making system-based changes that improve care for adolescents with substance use and mental health concerns. The AAP national team includes the following positions: Principal Investigator holds primary responsibility for the design, execution, and management of the project.
2 Project Advisory Committee pediatricians with expertise in substance use and mental health care who help guide clinical practice changes. Quality Improvement Advisor provides direction and guidance for overall design of the project. Supports chapters and practices throughout practice transformation. Quality Improvement Coach supports chapters and practices throughout practice transformation and coaches them as they learn to implement QI tools and resources. Quality Improvement Data Aggregator Manager responsible for data analysis (monthly data reports at the practice, chapter, and national level for the project. Project Manager responsible for overall direction of project, management of day-to-day project activities, and budget. As mentioned above, the project provides access to a data collection tool called the Quality Improvement Data Aggregator (QIDA). QIDA is a Web-based system that collects, collates, and reports QI data for multiple QI projects. Each participating chapter will be expected to form and manage a chapter project leadership team that includes a physician project leader, a chapter project manager and a local substance use or mental health expert who will develop a learning community amongst recruited practices and build a sustainable QI infrastructure within the chapter. The participating practices will be asked to identify a QI team and develop practice-specific improvement goals to help focus their efforts to improve substance use and mental health care for adolescents. To be successful, each chapter team will be required to meet the chapter expectations outlined on pages 8-9 of this RFA. Practice expectations are included, as well. This opportunity for chapters is made possible by generous support from the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation. 2

9 Chapter Quality Network PIAASU Project Chapter & Practice Expectations Expectations of Chapters Participate in the entirety of the CQN PIAASU project through June Develop a chapter project leadership team that includes (at a minimum) a physician project leader, a chapter project manager, and a local substance use and/or mental health expert, as described on pages 6-7 of this document. This team will be responsible for managing key components of the learning collaborative. Attend the 1.5-day chapter leadership training in Elk Grove Village, Illinois, in September 29-30, Recruit diverse practices. Identify local substance use and mental health resources for patient/family education. Coordinate and lead 4 learning sessions. Learning sessions are large learning events that your chapter will organize and host for participating member practices. There will be a total of 4 learning sessions throughout the project and these will be held within the month/year based on the project timeline set forth by the AAP. The entire chapter team is expected to attend all 4 sessions. Two of these sessions will be face-to-face and involve all 10 to 15 of your chapter s practice teams in a day-long meeting in your state. The chapter will be responsible for coordinating and managing these face-to-face meetings. The 2 additional learning sessions will be held via webinar, which the national office will coordinate. Learning session content and materials will be developed by the chapter leaders with ongoing consultation from the national AAP leadership team including the PAC, QI advisor, and QI coach. PI CME for completion of the project (including the 4 learning sessions) will also be coordinated by the AAP. Participate in monthly chapter leadership calls with the national leadership team and other chapters to share learnings and data. Once a month, the physician project leader and project manager will attend a conference call with the teams from the other participating chapters and the national project staff. The purpose of this meeting is to review the chapters data, troubleshoot problems that the chapters encounter, and share strategies for the continuous building of chapter infrastructure. Other team members may attend these meetings as available. Support practices by facilitating monthly practice conference calls and listservs throughout the project. Specifically, the physician project leader will co-lead conference calls. Once a month, the physician project leader will co-lead, with assistance from the national QI coach, a conference call with all of the participating practice teams. The topics of these meetings will vary; however, the general agenda will include the review of monthly data, troubleshooting problems that teams encounter, and highlighting 9
10 teams that are doing exceptionally well. The entire chapter team should attend these meetings. Coordinate the practices submission of data and narrative reports to track improvement. Chapter teams will take responsibility for practice data by sending monthly reminders, communicating with practices with low data submission, and congratulating practices who succeed at this activity. The national QI coach will assist chapters with the format of monthly reminders. Coach practice teams with support from the national QI coach. Chapter teams, especially the physician project leader, will coach practices throughout their improvement with the support of the national QI coach. Coaching includes reviewing and analyzing data, encouraging practices to make changes in their practice, persuading them to move out of their comfort zone, and taking responsibility for their successes and failures. Through coaching, the chapter team will drive practice outcomes. Complete all activities outlined in the Chapter Key Driver Diagram. Chapters will be expected to make changes that increase their current infrastructure for QI. The Chapter Key Driver Diagram will serve as a guide for managing the learning collaborative and provide tools and templates for making QI activities sustainable at the chapter level. Recruit support from key stakeholders, including payers, hospitals, and health systems. Monitor practice improvement activity and provide feedback about each physician s meaningful participation required for ABP MOC Part 4 credit. The physician project leader will be responsible for attesting that individual physicians have participated in the CQN PIAASU project and completed its requirements. Develop and implement strategies to sustain practice engagement in measurement and improvement activities after formal learning concludes. Expectations of Practices Form a core QI team with at least 3 members. These members must include: a physician leader; a nurse, nurse practitioner or medical assistant; and administrative staff or an office manager. One member is asked to commit to being the day-to-day team contact. Complete the work outlined in the CQN PIAASU pre-work packet. Attend and participate in all 4 learning sessions, as described above. Attend monthly conference calls with other participating practices to review data and share best practices. At a minimum, the core team must meet twice a month to plan and carry out tests of change. 10
11 Complete all activities outlined in the Practice Key Driver Diagram. This requires a willingness to build QI into practice activities. Practices will be expected to engage in small tests of change (ie, using planned care templates, practice protocols and self-management strategies) affecting their office system to make improvements in the care delivered to adolescents with substance use and mental health concerns. Utilize QIDA for data collection. The QIDA Web-based system allows practices to manage the care of adolescents with substance use and mental health concerns. The user-friendly system generates real-time data reports for practices to provide feedback on performance. Engage and partner with families. Physician practice leaders are expected to attest to other physicians meeting participation requirements for ABP MOC Part 4 credits. 1 Please note these numbers serve as only an estimate to the amount of time the Physician Project Leader and Chapter Manager will commit to the CQN PIAASU project. Actual FTE will differ between participating chapters. 11
