COMMUNITY SERVICE PLAN	SCHEDULE H PART I LINE 6A	2009 COMMUNITY SERVICE PLAN SUBMITTED SEPTEMBER 15, 2010 BY FAXTON ST. LUKES HEALTHCARE 1656 CHAMPLIN AVENUE, UTICA, NY 13502 315.624.6000 WWW.FAXTONSTLUKES.COM COMMUNITY SERVICE PLAN FAXTON ST. LUKE'S HEALTHCARE - UTICA, NEW YORK SUBMITTED: WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 2010 FAXTON ST. LUKE'S HEALTHCARE (FSLH) PRESENTS THE 2009 COMMUNITY SERVICE PLAN. THE PLAN INCORPORATES OUR WORK WITH COMMUNITY PARTNERS INCLUDING THE HEALTH DEPARTMENTS OF ONEIDA AND HERKIMER COUNTIES, ONEIDA COUNTY HEALTH COALITION, HERKIMER COUNTY HEALTHNET, LOCAL HOSPITALS (ST. ELIZABETH MEDICAL CENTER AND ROME MEMORIAL HOSPITAL), ALONG WITH INPUT FROM MANY OTHER HEALTH AND SOCIAL SERVICE AGENCIES, BUSINESS LEADERS,CLERGY, EDUCATORS, AND LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS. THIS PLAN IDENTIFIES SPECIFIC COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT ACTIONS IN RELATIONSHIP TO THE STATE OF NEW YORK DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH PREVENTION AGENDA. IT IS NOT THE INTENT OF THIS COMMUNITY SERVICE PLAN TO DUPLICATE THE DATA, COMMUNITY INPUT,AND DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PROCESSES THAT ARE CONTAINED IN BOTH THE ONEIDA COUNTY AND HERKIMER COUNTY COMMUNITY HEALTH ASSESSMENTS. THAT INFORMATION IS AVAILABLE ON THE COUNTY WEB SITES OR BY CONTACTING THE COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENTS. SECTION 1: MISSION STATEMENT OUR MISSION CONTINUES TO BE TO PROVIDE THE HIGHEST QUALITY HEALTH CARE IN OUR REGION. SECTION 2: FSLH GEOGRAPHIC SERVICE AREA FSLHS PRIMARY AND SECONDARY SERVICE AREAS, AS BASED ON A ZIP CODE ANALYSIS OF PATIENT ORIGIN, INCLUDES ALL COMMUNITIES, EXCEPT THE MOST DISTANT WESTERN TOWNS, IN ONEIDA COUNTY AND ALL BUT THE MOST SOUTH EASTERN TOWNS, IN HERKIMER COUNTY. THE POPULATION OF THIS SERVICE AREA IS APPROXIMATELY 284,552 PEOPLE. FOR SELECTED SPECIALTIES, SUCH AS DIALYSIS AND CANCER CARE, FSLH IS RECOGNIZED AS A TERTIARY CENTER SERVING PARTS OF MADISON, LEWIS, FULTON, HAMILTON, AND MONTGOMERY COUNTIES. THE POPULATION OF THE TERTIARY MARKET IS APPROXIMATELY 361,000 PEOPLE. SECTION 3: PUBLIC PARTICIPATION FSLH IS AN ACTIVE PARTICIPANT IN THE ONEIDA COUNTY AND HERKIMER COUNTY COMMUNITY HEALTH ASSESSMENTS. THIS PLAN INCORPORATES THE PRIORITIES FROM THE REGIONAL HEALTH SUMMIT WHICH WAS HELD IN APRIL 2009. REGIONAL HEALTH PRIORITIES: APRIL 2009 - RECAP ONEIDA AND HERKIMER COUNTIES HAVE SIMILAR HEALTH ISSUES WHICH ARE ADDRESSED BY ORGANIZATIONS SERVING BOTH COUNTIES. THE AREAS UNITED WAY IS ALSO ENGAGED IN AN INITIATIVE TO IDENTIFY HEALTH INVESTMENT AREAS FOR THE ONEIDA-HERKIMER REGION. IN APRIL 2009 BOTH COUNTIES COORDINATED THEIR PRIORITY-SETTING EFFORTS TO IDENTIFY THE HEALTH PRIORITIES FOR THE REGION FROM THE NYSDOH PREVENTION AGENDA. THIS COLLABORATIVE REGIONAL HEALTH SUMMIT WAS SPONSORED AND COORDINATED BY REPRESENTATIVES FROM THE REGIONS HOSPITALS, LHDS, CHA PLANNING TEAMS, AND THE UNITED WAY AND INCLUDED THE FOLLOWING AGENCIES: .. FAXTON ST. LUKES HEALTHCARE .. HERKIMER COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT .. HERKIMER COUNTY HEALTHNET .. ONEIDA COUNTY HEALTH COALITION & MAPP ADVISORY TEAM .. ONEIDA COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT .. ST. ELIZABETH MEDICAL CENTER .. ROME MEMORIAL HOSPITAL .. UNITED WAY OF THE VALLEY AND GREATER UTICA AREA .. MOHAWK VALLEY PERINATAL NETWORK ACTIONS PLANS WERE DEVELOPED AND VOLUNTEERS INTERESTED IN EACH PRIORITY AREA WERE IDENTIFIED, COLLECTED AND ORGANIZED BY THE SPONSORS (REGIONAL PLANNING TEAM).SECTION 4: COMMUNITY HEALTH PRIORTIES THE COMMUNITY ASSESSMENT FOR HERKIMER AND ONEIDA COUNTIES IDENTIFIED THE SAME ITEMS FROM THE PREVENTION AGENDA AS THE HEALTH PRIORITIES FOR THEIR RESPECTIVE COUNTIES. MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE HEALTHY MOTHERS, HEALTHY BABIES, HEALTHY CHILDREN CHRONIC DISEASE ACCESS TO QUALITY HEALTHCARE PHYSICAL FITNESS AND NUTRITION FOCUS AREAS FOR FAXTON ST. LUKES HEALTHCARE, ST. ELIZABETH MEDICAL CENTER (SEMC), ROME MEMORIAL HOSPITAL, ONEIDA COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT AND THE HERKIMER COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT ARE: MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE SPECIFIC ACTION AREA THE LACK OF ACUTE EMERGENCY SUPPORT, ESPECIALLY COMMUNITY MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES FOR ADOLESCENTS. HEALTHY MOTHERS, HEALTHY BABIES, HEALTHY CHILDREN SPECIFIC ACTION AREA COMPLETE THE CONSOLIDATION OF THE PCAP CLINICS OPERATED BY FSLH AND SEMC AND ENHANCE THOSE SERVICES WITH THE POTENTIAL OFFERING OF COMMUNITY SERVICES, SUCH AS MEDICAID ENROLLMENT AND WIC ENROLLMENT AT THE NEW SITE. THIS TACTIC WOULD ALSO INCLUDE ACTIONS FOR INCREASING THE HEALTH DEPARTMENTS ROLE IN PRENATAL AND POST NATAL EDUCATION. CHRONIC DISEASE SPECIFIC ACTION AREA TOBACCO USE IS A SIGNIFICANT FACTOR/CONTRIBUTOR TO MANY CHRONIC DISEASES. THE HOSPITALS AND HEALTH DEPARTMENTS COLLABORATE WITH THE SMOKING CESSATION EFFORTS OF TRI-COUNTY SMOKING CESSATION CENTER. THESE 3 IDENTIFIED ACTION AREAS FOR THE HOSPITAL COMMUNITY SERVICE PLANS ARE THE FOCUS OF THE THREE YEAR ACTION PLANS REQUIRED BY THE NYSDOH FOR COLLABORATIVE HEALTH IMPROVEMENT INITIATIVES BY THE HEALTH DEPARTMENTS AND THE HOSPITALS.
COMMUNITY SERVICE PLAN	SCHEDULE H PART I LINE 6A	SECTION 5: UPDATE ON THE PLAN OF ACTION THE ONEIDA COUNTY HEALTH COALITION STEERING COMMITTEE MEETS MONTHLY, AND HAS BECOME THE BODY THAT OVERSEES PROGRESS OF THE PUBLIC HEALTH PRIORITIES WORK GROUPS. THE STEERING COMMITTEES PURPOSE IS TO IMPROVE COMMUNICATION; COORDINATE HEALTH SUMMIT WORKGROUPS; PROBLEM-SOLVE, COMMUNICATE AND REPORT ON SUCCESSES AND CHALLENGES. REPRESENTATIVES INCLUDES THE HOSPITALS (FSLH, SEMC AND ROME MEMORIAL), CATHOLIC CHARITIES, ONEIDA COUNTY HEALTH COALITION, KIDS ONEIDA, MEDICAL SOCIETIES OF HERKIMER AND ONEIDA COUNTIES, MOHAWK VALLEY RESOURCE CENTER FOR REFUGEES, AND HERKIMER COUNTY INTEGRATED PLANNING, MEMBERS OF THE ONEIDA COUNTY HEALTH COALITION STEERING COMMITTEE/MAPP TEAM AND HERKIMER COMMUNITY HEALTH ASSESSMENT STEERING COMMITTEE. THE TOP THREE SELECTED PRIORITIES ARE PROFILED IN DETAIL, ALONG WITH THE ADDITIONAL TWO PRIORITIES WHICH HAVE BEGUN TO DEVELOPMENT ACTION PLANS. THE 5 PRIORITIES AND THEIR ACTION PLANS ARE NUMBERED 1 TO 5. PRIORITY 1 MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE THE THREE-YEAR PLAN OUTLINED IN 2009:2009-2010 WORK GROUPS IN EACH OF THE IDENTIFIED PRIORITY AREAS WILL IDENTIFY STRONG LEADERS, EXAMINE DATA AND DETERMINE SPECIFIC COMMUNITY NEEDS AND MEASUREMENT TOOLS.2010-2011 MEMBERS OF THE REGIONAL HEALTH COORDINATING COUNCIL (RHCC) WILL ALLOCATE RESOURCES, BOTH STAFF AND FINANCIAL, TO ADDRESS THE PRIORITY ISSUES AND TAKE ACTION. 2011-2012 MEMBERS OF THE RHCC WILL MEASURE THE ACTIONS FOR POSITIVE OUTCOMES AND DETERMINE NEXT STEPS. THE WORK GROUPS MEETINGS WITH THE ONEIDA COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF MENTAL HEALTH TO COORDINATE PRIORITIES WITHIN THEIR PLANNING PROCESS RESULTED IN A CHANGE IN THE ACTION AREAS. ACCESS TO MENTAL HEALTH CARE, CROSS-SYSTEMS COLLABORATION AND SUICIDE RATES ARE AREAS THAT THE COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENTS MENTAL HEALTH SUBCOMMITTEE HAVE IDENTIFIED AND INTEGRATED WITH THE FINDINGS OF THE COUNTYS COMMUNITY HEALTH ASSESSMENT. THE MENTAL HEALTH PRIORITY IS PREEXISTING AND ACTION IS URGENTLY NEEDED FOR ACUTE AND COMMUNITY MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES FOR ADULTS, ADOLESCENTS AND CHILDREN. THE ONEIDA COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF MENTAL HEALTH (OCDMH) CREATED AN EMERGENCY PSYCHIATRIC SERVICES SYSTEM (EPSS) COMMITTEE, WHICH MET QUARTERLY IN 2009 AND INCLUDES REPRESENTATIVES FROM ALL THREE ONEIDA COUNTY HOSPITALS (FAXTON ST. LUKES HEALTHCARE, ST. ELIZABETH AND ROME MEMORIAL), AND THE MOBILE CRISIS ASSESSMENT TEAM (MCAT) OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD CENTER. ALSO INCLUDED WERE REPRESENTATIVES OF LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT AND COMMUNITY MENTAL HEALTH PROVIDERS. AS THE ONEIDA COUNTY MOBILE CRISIS ASSESSMENT TEAM (MCAT) CEASED ASSESSING ADULTS IN EMERGENCY DEPARTMENTS AS OF AUGUST 1, 2009 AND CEASED ASSESSING CHILDREN IN THE EDS AS OF OCTOBER 1, 2009, THREE EPSS SUBCOMMITTEES WORKED ON PLANS TO IMPROVE MENTAL HEALTH/SUBSTANCE ABUSE SERVICES TO PATIENTS. EACH COLLABORATIVE COMMITTEE IS COMPRISED OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE ABOVE ORGANIZATIONS. THE COMMITTEES ARE TRANSITION SUBCOMMITTEE, 9.41/UTILIZATION REVIEW SUBCOMMITTEE AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT SUBCOMMITTEE. THE LAST FULL GROUP MEETING OF THE EMERGENCY PSYCHIATRIC SERVICES SYSTEM (EPSS) COMMITTEE WAS HELD JANUARY 25, 2010, AT WHICH TIME IT WAS DECIDED THAT QUARTERLY MEETINGS WERE NO LONGER NEEDED IN LIEU OF ONGOING SUBCOMMITTEE WORK. THE THREE SUBCOMMITTEES, TRANSITION, 9.41/UTILIZATION REVIEW AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT, CONTINUED TO MEET PERIODICALLY SINCE THEN ON THEIR APPOINTED CHARGES. DATA IS ALSO BEING COLLECTED REGARDING MCATS SHIFT FROM A PRIMARY ED RESPONDER TO GREATER MOBILITY TO THE COMMUNITY-AT-LARGE FOR SITUATIONS INVOLVING BOTH CHILDREN AND ADULTS. SUBCOMMITTEE RESULTS IN 2010 ARE: TRANSITION (ADULT) THIS IS NO LONGER OPERATIONAL, AS FORMAL PROTOCOLS HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED AND IMPLEMENTED AND ALL RELATED TRAININGS HAVE BEEN COMPLETED; LOCAL HOSPITALS HAVE HIRED OR REALIGNED STAFF TO REPLACE MCAT FUNCTIONS IN THE ED. TRANSITION (CHILDREN AND YOUTH) THE TRANSITION SUBCOMMITTEES GOAL WAS TO CONVERT MCATS ED COVERAGE TO HOSPITAL STAFF BY TRAINING IN SCREENING AND ASSESSMENT FOR ADULTS AND CHILDREN. THIS ENABLES HOSPITALS TO DEVELOP RESOURCES AND INTERNAL PROFICIENCIES TO HELP MEET THESE NEEDS. THE GOAL ADDRESSS SYSTEMS OBSTACLES, PARTICULARLY THE PROCURING OF APPROPRIATE REFERRALS TO INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT RESOURCES. THE SUBCOMMITTEE DEVELOPED A SURVEY AND DISTRIBUTED IT TO VARIOUS STAKEHOLDERS (INCLUDING NYS OFFICE OF MENTAL HEALTH, HOSPITAL EDS, AND THE MVPC PINEFIELD UNIT) TO EXAMINE PERCEPTIONS AND POSSIBLE REASONS FOR THE ONGOING FACT OF CHILDREN WITH LENGTHY ED STAYS. THE TRANSITION SUBCOMMITTEE OUTCOME MEASURE WAS DEFINED: TO REDUCE THE LENGTH OF STAY FOR CHILDREN WHO REMAIN IN THE ED, ONCE MEDICALLY CLEARED VIA: A. DATA COLLECTION AND PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT B. CONTINUED REVIEW AND REFINEMENT OF EXISTING PROTOCOLS C. TRAINING FOR ALL PROVIDERS RELATED TO THE 3 PROTOCOLS D. FINALIZATION OF THE MCAT FOLLOW-UP PROTOCOL, SO EDS CAN UTILIZE MCAT AS PART OF A VIABLE DISCHARGE PLAN. FAXTON ST. LUKES HEALTHCARE IS NOW PROVIDING TWO NURSE PRACTITIONERS NPS)WITH PSYCHIATRIC BACKGROUNDS TO ASSESS CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF 18 WHO ARE IN THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT. THE ASSESSMENT IS IN COLLABORATION WITH A NEWLY-HIRED HOSPITAL PSYCHIATRIST. FUNDING FOR THE NPS WAS SECURED THROUGH THE CHILDRENS MIRACLE NETWORK, A FUNDRAISING ARM OF THE HOSPITAL, TO SUPPORT THIS SERVICE. THE SERVICE BEGAN IN MAY 2010 AND FUNDING IS AVAILABLE THROUGH APRIL 30, 2011. THROUGHOUT THIS INITIATIVE FSLH WILL ACCESS THE PATIENT CARE OUTCOMES AND MAKE FURTHER RECOMMENDATIONS FOR 2011. ONEIDA COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF MENTAL HEALTH HAS ALSO TRAINED THE FOLLOWING PROVIDERS IN THE USE OF INFORMATION-SHARING PROTOCOL AND/OR THE CHILDREN & YOUTH ED PROTOCOL: NEIGHBORHOOD CENTER IN UTICA AND ROME; UCP/CHBS, INSIGHT HOUSE, HOUSE OF THE GOOD SHEPHERD, MILESTONES AND THE UTICA RESCUE MISSIONS ADDICTION CRISIS CENTER. TRANSITION SUBCOMMITTEE MEMBERS ALSO MET WITH REPRESENTATIVES OF ONEIDA COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL SERVICES (OCDSS), TO DISCUSS REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS TO ADMIT CHILDREN AND YOUTH TO DSS CUSTODY AT MVPC PINEFIELD. THE NEED FOR A CASE REVIEW PROCESS FOR HIGH USERS OF EDS AND INPATIENT PSYCHIATRIC SERVICES HAS ALSO BEEN DISCUSSED. A MEETING WAS HELD ON JULY 16, 2010. THE SUBCOMMITTEE CONTINUES TO MEET MONTHLY IN AN EFFORT TO ADDRESS ONGOING COMMUNICATION ISSUES BETWEEN PROVIDERS, EDS AND MVPCS PINEFIELD. 9.41/UTILIZATION REVIEW THE UTILIZATION REVIEW SUBCOMMITTEES GOALS IDENTIFY AND REVIEW ALL INDIVIDUALS WHO PRESENTED WITH A PSYCHIATRIC DISABILITY AT LOCAL EDS AND DETERMINE, CASE-BY-CASE, IF THE PATIENT WAS APPROPRIATE FOR THE ED, FOR MCAT INVOLVEMENT OR FOR ANOTHER RESPONSE. IT ALSO ADDRESSS INDIVIDUAL AND COLLECTIVE SYSTEM OBSTACLES AND ARRANGES FOR CASE CONFERENCES. THE TEAM MET ON JULY 20, 2010 WITH ONGOING MONTHLY MEETINGS SCHEDULED. A MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING BETWEEN ONEIDA COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF MENTAL HEALTH, ONEIDA COUNTY LAW ENFORCEMENT, ONEIDA COUNTY HOSPITALS, EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES AND LOCAL COMMUNITY SUPPORTS (KNOWN COLLECTIVELY AS THE EMERGENCY PSYCHIATRIC SERVICES SYSTEM) IS NEARLY FINALIZED, AWAITING SIGNATURES; CASES ARE REVIEWED FOR APPROPRIATENESS AND ARE TRACKED BY TRANSPORT METHOD AND PRESENTING PROBLEM(S). IN ADDITION, PROGRESS INCLUDES FINALIZATION OF A REQUEST FOR EXAMINATION FORM FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIALS, A CASE REVIEW FORM, AND A STATISTICAL REPORTING PROCESS THAT MONITORS OUTCOMES. PERFORMANCE OUTCOME MEASURES ARE: 1. MCAT FACE-TO-FACE COMMUNITY SCREENINGS WILL ACHIEVE THE SAME NUMBERS AS PRIOR TO MCAT LEAVING THE EDS. 2. MCAT WILL DEMONSTRATE INCREASED LAW ENFORCEMENT INTERACTIONS ON THE 4-12 PM SHIFT. 3. TOTAL 9.41S (EMERGENCY ADMISSIONS FOR IMMEDIATE OBSERVATION, CARE AND TREATMENT) WILL DECREASE IN NUMBER. COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT THIS SUBCOMMITTEE NO LONGER MEETS. ITS GOAL WAS TO EXPAND MCATS EXPERTISE BY ADDING PEER ADVOCATES, AGREEING UPON NEW TASKS AND APPROACHES, AND ENHANCING PARTNERSHIPS WITH OTHER COMMUNITY PROVIDERS SUCH AS LAW ENFORCEMENT AND DSS PROTECTIVE SERVICES IN ORDER TO ACHIEVE THE MOST EFFECTIVE EPSS RESPONSE FOR ONEIDA COUNTY RESIDENTS.
COMMUNITY SERVICE PLAN	SCHEDULE H PART I LINE 6A	MCAT HAS PROVIDED NUMEROUS TRAININGS THROUGHOUT THE COMMUNITY REGARDING ITS CHANGED ROLE AND HOW TO EFFECTIVELY NEGOTIATE THE RESTRUCTURED EMERGENCY PSYCHIATRIC SERVICE SYSTEM. DATA COLLECTED OVER TIME REFLECTS A GRADUAL DECREASE IN LAW ENFORCEMENT PICK-UP ORDERS, WITH A CORRESPONDING INCREASE IN MCAT COMMUNITY SCREENINGS. PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT INDICATORS HAVE BEEN IMPLEMENTED FOR MCAT. NO PEER STAFF MEMBERS HAVE BEEN HIRED TO DATE. THE ONEIDA COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF MENTAL HEALTH CONTINUES TO GATHER RELEVANT DATA ELECTRONICALLY FROM THE EDS AT FAXTON ST. LUKES HEALTHCARE, ST. ELIZABETH MEDICAL CENTER AND ROME MEMORIAL HOSPITAL, AND ADULT INPATIENT PSYCHIATRIC UNITS (INCLUDING MOHAWK VALLEY PSYCHIATRIC CENTER) TO HELP IDENTIFY A GROUP OF HIGH- RISK, HIGH-USE INDIVIDUALS OF SERVICES AND MEDICAID, IN HOPES THAT A MORE STRATEGIC, COST-EFFECTIVE FOCUS CAN THEN BE APPLIED TO THESE CASES. IT IS ANTICIPATED THAT THE NEXT FULL GROUP EMERGENCY PSYCHIATRIC SERVICES SYSTEM (EPSS) MEETING WILL BE HELD IN JANUARY 2011. ONE OF THE OVERALL GOALS OF THE STRATEGIES WAS TO RECRUIT A PEDIATRIC PSYCHIATRIST TO THE AREA OR DEVELOP A CONTRACT WITH A PEDIATRIC PSYCHIATRIST VIA TELEMEDICINE, SO CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS WILL RECEIVE TIMELY, EFFECTIVE TREATMENT. THIS GOAL HAS NOT BEEN MET. ANOTHER GOAL IS TO INSTALL COMPUTER PROGRAMS AND GAIN ACCESS FOR COMMUNITY PARTNERS TO SHARE INFORMATION AND INPUT DATA ON PATIENTS. OCDMH IS RESEARCHING GRANT FUNDING FOR AN ELECTRONIC MEDICAL RECORD FOR THIS PURPOSE. ANOTHER GOAL IS TO RESEARCH NYS GUIDELINES TO LEARN IF MEDICATIONS MAY BE ADJUSTED FOR PATIENTS WITH DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES OR MENTAL HEALTH PROBLEMS. GOALS WILL CONTINUE TO BE MEASURED FOR EFFECTIVENESS BY: . INCREASED NUMBERS OF COMMUNITY SCREENINGS, SO PATIENTS DO NOT GO TO THE ED FOR INAPPROPRIATE MENTAL-HEALTH CONCERNS . DECREASED NUMBERS OF ED VISITS AND INVOLUNTARY TRANSFERS OF SUCH PATIENTS . DEVELOPMENT OF A MEDICALLY MANAGED DETOXIFICATION PROGRAM IN THE AREA. THERE ARE NOT MANY SERVICES IN THE REGION THAT PROVIDE SERVICES FOR HEAVY SUBSTANCE ABUSERS. PRIORITY 2 - HEALTHY MOTHERS, HEALTHY BABIES, HEALTHY CHILDREN 2009-2010 - OB CARE PROGRAM RENOVATION/ IS IN PROGRESS WITH EXPANDED WORK GROUPS, IN ADDITION TO THE HOSPITALS, PARTICIPATING IN THE OCTOBER 2009 HEALTH SUMMIT. 2010-2011 - COMPLETION OF THE OB CARE CENTER AT THE ST. LUKES CAMPUS OF FAXTON-ST. LUKES HEALTHCARE AND FULL CONSOLIDATION OF SERVICES. MEMBERS OF THE HEALTHY MOTHERS, BABIES AND CHILDREN WORK GROUP TO DEVELOP PRIORITIES, ASSESS RESOURCES AND TAKE ACTION TO DEVELOP A COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH TO SERVING THE IDENTIFIED POPULATION. 2011- 2012 - MEMBERS OF THE TEAM WILL CONTINUE TO MEASURE ACTIONS FOR POSITIVE OUTCOMES AND DETERMINE NEXT STEPS. THE INITIATIVES IDENTIFIED BY THE TEAMS IN ONEIDA AND HERKIMER COUNTIES INCLUDE BETTER ACCESS TO CARE AND COORDINATION OF CARE. THE UNDER-SERVED ARE IDENTIFIED AS A HIGH PRIORITY. 1. BETTER ACCESS TO CARE INCLUDES CONSOLIDATION OF OB CARE SERVICES AT ONE PROVIDER LOCATION. BACKGROUND: FAXTON ST. LUKES HEALTHCARE AND ST. ELIZABETH MEDICAL CENTER PROVIDE GYN AND/OR OB CARE SERVICES THROUGH THEIR INDIVIDUAL HOSPITALS. THE COVERAGE AREA FACES SEVERAL CHALLENGES INCLUDING HIGH RATES FOR TEEN PREGNANCY, INFANT MORTALITY, INFANT LOW BIRTH WEIGHT AND LOW PERCENTAGE OF BIRTHS WITH PRENATAL CARE (AS COMPARED TO THE NEW YORK STATE AVERAGE). THERE ARE MORE THAN 57,000 WOMEN OF CHILDBEARING AGE WITHIN ONEIDA AND HERKIMER COUNTIES. IN APRIL 2008 THE HOSPITALS BEGAN COLLABORATION TO CENTRALIZE THE SERVICES AT ONE SITE AND PROVIDE A COMPREHENSIVE, COMMUNITY-BASED PROGRAM. THE PROJECT INVOLVED RENOVATIONS TO THE EXISTING 1,810 SQUARE FOOT OB CARE CENTER LOCATED AT THE ST. LUKES CAMPUS OF FAXTON ST. LUKES HEALTHCARE AND ADDED A NEW ADDITION OF 3,860 SQUARE FEET. THE NEW CENTER, WOULD ACCOMMODATE THE SERVICES OF THE ST. ELIZABETH FAMILY PRACTICE RESIDENCY PROGRAM, TO SUPPORT THE STAFFING NEEDS OF THE CENTER. ESTIMATED PROJECT COST (2008) IS $1.6 MILLION. THE ORGANIZATIONS APPLIED FOR AND RECEIVED A $1.6 MILLION GRANT FROM THE HEAL NY PHASE 7 AWARDS IN SEPTEMBER 2008. THE INITIAL PLAN CALLED FOR RENOVATION AND CONSTRUCTION WITH THE FIRST PHASE BEGINNING IN LATE 2009 AND COMPLETION ANTICIPATED BY SUMMER 2010. ANNUALLY THE TWO OB SERVICES SEE APPROXIMATELY 13,000 OB VISITS THAT ARE MEDICAID INSURED PATIENTS. DELIVERIES FOR THE COMMUNITY ARE AT THE BIRTHPLACE OF FAXTON ST. LUKES HEALTHCARE WHICH SEES ABOUT 2,200 DELIVERIES ON AN ANNUAL BASIS, 825 OF WHICH ARE PATIENTS FROM THE OB CARE CENTERS. STATUS UPDATE OF OVERALL GOALS FOR THE INITIATIVE- COORDINATE AND CENTRALIZE OB CARE SERVICES FOR UNINSURED/UNDERSERVED HIGH-RISK WOMEN AND STREAMLINE OB/GYN SERVICES IN ONE COMMUNITY-BASED CARE CENTER. THE ORGANIZATIONS (FAXTON ST. LUKES HEALTHCARE AND ST. ELIZABETH MEDICAL CENTER) ARE CURRENTLY WORKING WITH THE NEW YORK STATE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH TO ADDRESS AND SECURE A SUCCESSFUL REIMBURSEMENT MODEL FOR THE NEW COMBINED PROGRAM. THE DEVELOPMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION OF THE MODEL HAS DELAYED THE PROGRESS OF THE PROGRAM. AN EXTENSION OF THE $1.6 MILLION HEAL NY PHASE 7 AWARD IS BEING APPLIED FOR IN ANTICIPATION OF A SUCCESSFUL RESOLUTION OF THE REIMBURSEMENT BARRIER. - ALLEVIATE CURRENT OBSTETRICIAN SHORTAGE AT FAXTON ST. LUKES HEALTHCARE BY SHARING PHYSICIAN SERVICES AND INCREASE EFFICACY OF TREATMENT BY USING FAMILY PRACTICE RESIDENTS TO ASSIST IN PROVIDING TREATMENT. THE ORGANIZATIONS HAVE EXPLORED A LABORIST MODEL FOR PROVIDER COVERAGE. THERE ARE CURRENTLY 12 LABORIST MODELS ACROSS THE COUNTRY MANAGED BY AN ORGANIZATION KNOWN AS DELPHI HEALTHCARE PARTNERS, INC. THIS POSSIBLE MODEL WOULD BE COMPATIBLE WITH THE FAMILY RESIDENCY PROGRAM OF ST. ELIZABETH MEDICAL CENTER. 2. REMOVE PERCEIVED BARRIERS TO ACCESSING PRENATAL CARE SERVICES. MUCH OF 2010 WAS SPENT IDENTIFYING WHAT RESOURCES ARE CURRENTLY AVAILABLE, AREAS OF OVERLAP AS WELL AS UNMET NEEDS. WORK GROUPS ARE ADDRESSING ACCESS TO PRENATAL CARE,ACCESS TO CARE AND TEEN PREGNANCY PREVENTION. TEAM MEMBERS INCLUDE FAXTON ST. LUKES HEALTHCARE, CATHOLIC CHARITIES, PLANNED PARENTHOOD, YWCA MOHAWK VALLEY, MOHAWK VALLEY PERINATAL NETWORK, ST. ELIZABETH MEDICAL CENTER, ONEIDA COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT, CORNELL COOPERATIVE EXTENSION, CARE NET PREGNANCY CENTER OF CNY, UTICA SAFE SCHOOLS AND HERKIMER COUNTY HEALTH NET. MATERNAL-CHILD HEALTH WORKGROUP IS ADDRESSING PRIORITY AREAS OF LOW BIRTH WEIGHT, PRETERM BIRTH, AND EARLY ENTRY TO PRENATAL CARE. LED BY THE MOHAWK VALLEY PERINATAL NETWORK, THE TEAM IS EXPLORING A CONCEPT KNOWN AS CENTERING PREGNANCY, A MODEL OF GROUP HEALTH CARE DELIVERY COORDINATED THROUGH LOCAL PRENATAL CARE CENTERS AND PRIVATE OBSTETRICAL OFFICES. A COMMUNITY-WIDE PRESENTATION WILL BE HELD IN SEPTEMBER 2010. FOLLOWING THE PROGRAM THE TEAM WILL DEVELOP SPECIFIC ACTION PLANS AND TIMELINES FOR IMPLEMENTATION SHOULD THE MODEL BE ADOPTED. NOTES ABOUT THE MODEL: CENTERING PREGNANCY HAS THREE COMPONENTS HEALTH ASSESSMENT, EDUCATION, AND SUPPORT THAT ARE PROVIDED IN A GROUP FACILITATED BY A CREDENTIALED HEALTH PROVIDER AND A CO-FACILITATOR WHO IS A NURSE OR OTHER APPROPRIATE STAFF MEMBER. THIS EVIDENCE-BASED REDESIGN OF HEALTH CARE DELIVERY HELPS PROMOTE SAFETY, EFFICIENCY, EFFECTIVENESS, TIMELINESS, CULTURALLY APPROPRIATE PATIENT-CENTERED CARE, AND MORE EQUITABLE CARE. GROUP PARTICIPANTS MEET REGULARLY WITH THEIR CARE PROVIDER AND OTHER GROUP PARTICIPANTS FOR MUCH LONGER (UP TO TWO HOURS) THAN A USUAL CHECK-UP VISIT. EVIDENCE SUGGESTS THAT OUTCOMES FOR PEOPLE RECEIVING CARE IN GROUPS ARE UNIFORMLY BETTER THAN FOR THOSE IN TRADITIONAL CARE. THE MODEL HAS SHOWN TO HELP REDUCE PRETERM BIRTH FOR WOMEN IN CENTERING GROUPS, INCREASE PATIENT SATISFACTION, INCREASE BREAST-FEEDING RATES, AND IMPROVED KNOWLEDGE AND READINESS FOR BIRTH AND PARENTING. IT HAS BEEN PROVEN THAT CENTERING PREGNANCY CAN BE COST NEUTRAL WITH THE REDUCTION IN PRETERM BIRTHS SAVING SIGNIFICANT DOLLARS WITHIN THE HEALTH SYSTEM. OTHER CONSIDERATION OF COST EFFECTIVENESS ALSO INCLUDES LONG-TERM MEASURES SUCH AS: INCIDENCE AND EFFECTIVE TREATMENT OF DEPRESSION, MATERNAL AND CHILDHOOD OBESITY, SCHOOL READINESS, AND EFFECTIVE CONTRACEPTION.
COMMUNITY SERVICE PLAN	SCHEDULE H PART I LINE 6A	3. COMMUNICATION AND OUTREACH, ACCESS TO CARE - IN 2010 INFORMATIONAL POSTERS/BROCHURES HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED AND DISTRIBUTED BY FAXTON ST. LUKES HEALTHCARE AND MOHAWK VALLEY PERINATAL NETWORK TO PROMOTE AWARENESS OF RESOURCES AVAILABLE FOR NEWLY PREGNANT MOTHERS, ENCOURAGING THE IMPORTANCE OF GOOD PRENATAL CARE. - TEEN PREGNANCY PREVENTION NETWORK IS LED THE MOHAWK VALLEY PERINATAL NETWORK. THE OBJECTIVE OF THE TEAM IS TO DECREASE THE PERCENTAGE OF ADOLESCENT TEEN PREGNANCIES OF 15-19 YEAR-OLDS IN ONEIDA, HERKIMER, AND MADISON COUNTIES BY 5-10% OVER THE COURSE OF 5 YEARS (2011 TO 2016) AS MEASURED BY NYS DEPT. OF HEALTH VITAL RECORDS DATA. STRATEGIES INCLUDE: - HALF DAY TRAINING AND AWARENESS PROGRAM FOR HEALTH AND PHYSICAL EDUCATION TEACHERS, SCHOOL NURSES, FAMILY EDUCATORS, AND ANY OTHER INTERESTED SCHOOL PERSONNEL ON VARIOUS SEX-ED TOPICS. TARGET DATES FOR PROGRAM WILL TIE TO AVAILABLE DAYS WITH SCHOOL PERSONNEL, SUCH AS A SCHEDULED DAY OFF (SUPERINTENDENTS DAY) IN THE SPRING 2011 AND SUMMER 2011. PARTNERS INCLUDE: .. BOCES ONEIDA-HERKIMER-MADISON .. BOCES MADISON-ONEIDA .. LOCAL SCHOOLS .. AGENCIES WITHIN OUR NETWORK - UTICA SAFE SCHOOLS, YWCA, FAXTON ST. LUKES, PLANNED PARENTHOOD, MVPN, AIDS COMMUNITY RESOURCES, CATHOLIC CHARITIES, ETC. - COLLABORATE WITH COMPEER AND LOCAL COLLEGES TO RECRUIT VOLUNTEERS TO BE MENTORS FOR LOCAL MENTORING PROGRAMS (COMPEER, HAMILTON COLLEGE, FOR THE GOOD, ETC.) TARGET DATE TO BE DETERMINED. PARTNERS INCLUDE: .. COMPEER .. HAMILTON COLLEGE - FOR THE GOOD .. OTHER LOCAL COLLEGES A FREE COMMUNITY PROGRAM OFFERED IN SEPTEMBER 2010 UNDERSTANDING AND ENGAGING TEENS BY THE MOHAWK VALLEY PERINATAL NETWORK IS PART OF EDUCATIONAL SERVICES TO HELP AGENCIES AND CARE PROVIDERS BETTER UNDERSTAND WHAT MOTIVATES YOUTH AND PROVIDE INFORMATION ON HOW TO ENGAGE THEM IN THEIR OWN HEALTH DECISIONS. BARRIERS TO CARE CONTINUE TO BE SCHEDULING AND ACCESS FOR CONVENIENT APPOINTMENT TIMES, PROVIDING SHORTER WAIT TIMES FOR CARE, TRANSPORTATION ISSUES, AND A ONE-STOP SHOPPING CONCEPT FOR LABORATORY AND RADIOLOGY SERVICES, FINANCIAL COUNSELING, NUTRITIONAL SERVICES, SOCIAL WORK, SMOKING CESSATION AND THE OPPORTUNITY FOR SUPPORTING COUNTY AGENCIES TO BE AVAILABLE DURING THE PRENATAL VISITS. PRIORITY 3 - CHRONIC DISEASE MANAGEMENT IN 2009, THE 3-YEAR PLAN FOCUSED UPON TOBACCO CESSATION, WHICH WAS AN EXISTING PRIORITY FOR THE REGION. THE REGIONAL PROGRAM CURRENTLY IN PLACE IS THE TRI-COUNTY TOBACCO CESSATION CENTER AT THE REGIONAL CANCER CENTER OF FAXTON-ST. LUKES HEALTHCARE. THIS PROGRAM IS FUNDED BY THE NEW YORK STATE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH TOBACCO CONTROL PROGRAM (TCP). IT IS A COMPONENT OF A COMPREHENSIVE STATE-WIDE APPROACH TO REDUCE MORBIDITY AND MORTALITY AND ALLEVIATE THE SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC BURDEN CAUSED BY TOBACCO USE IN NEW YORK STATE (TCP STRATEGIC PLAN). THE PROGRAM IS ACTIVE IN ONEIDA, HERKIMER AND MADISON COUNTIES. THERE ARE CURRENTLY 123 PARTICIPATING PARTNER HEALTHCARE PROVIDER ORGANIZATIONS, INCLUDING FAXTON ST. LUKES HEALTHCARE, ST. ELIZABETH MEDICAL CENTER, MOHAWK VALLEY HEART INSTITUTE, ONEIDA HEALTHCARE, ROME MEMORIAL HOSPITAL, LITTLE FALLS HOSPITAL, COMMUNITY MEMORIAL HOSPITAL, SLOCUM-DICKSON MEDICAL GROUP, PLLC AND BRIDGES. THE TRI-COUNTY TOBACCO CESSATION CENTER RECEIVED AN ADDITIONAL 3-YEAR GRANT FROM THE NYSDOH IN 2009. THE GRANT IS FUNDED AND REVIEWED ANNUALLY. MEMBERS FROM THE TRI-COUNTY TEAM PARTICIPATE IN THE CHRONIC DISEASE WORK GROUP. USING EVIDENCE-BASED METHODOLOGIES, THE CESSATION CENTER INCORPORATES THE FOLLOWING GOALS AND STRATEGIES (BASED ON THE TCP STRATEGIC PLAN): . INCREASE THE NUMBER OF HEALTHCARE ORGANIZATIONS AND PROVIDERS THAT EFFECTIVELY IMPLEMENT THE PUBLIC HEALTH SERVICE CLINICAL PRACTICE GUIDELINE FOR TREATING TOBACCO USE AND DEPENDENCE.. ADVANCE TOBACCO-FREE POLICIES AND PROVISIONS OF TOBACCO DEPENDENCE TREATMENT IN ALL HEALTHCARE SETTINGS, INCLUDING HOSPITALS AND PHYSICIAN PRACTICES, SUBSTANCE ABUSE TREATMENT FACILITIES, MENTAL HEALTH TREATMENT AND SUPPORT SETTINGS, ADULT CARE FACILITIES AND HIV CARE SETTINGS. SUPPORT EMPLOYER PROVISION AND PROMOTION OF TOBACCO DEPENDENCE TREATMENT FOR EMPLOYEES AND ADOPTION OF TOBACCO-FREE CAMPUSES. . INCREASE THE NUMBER OF PUBLIC AND PRIVATE HEALTH INSURANCE PLANS THAT PROVIDE COMPREHENSIVE, LIFETIME COVERAGE OF TOBACCO DEPENDENCE TREATMENT. . EXPAND AND SUSTAIN EFFORTS TO PROMOTE THE NEW YORK STATE SMOKERS QUITLINE WEBSITE. THE TOBACCO CESSATION CENTER AT THE REGIONAL CANCER CENTER OF FAXTON ST. LUKES HEALTHCARE ENCOMPASSES A CATCHMENT AREA OF ONEIDA, HERKIMER AND MADISON COUNTIES. THESE COUNTIES REPRESENT SEVERAL DEMOGRAPHIC CHALLENGES IN TREATING TOBACCO USE AND DEPENDENCE. THE AREAS CLASSIFIED AS CITIES RANGE IN POPULATION SIZE FROM 3,000 TO 60,000. THE GENERAL POPULATION IS SCATTERED AMONG MANY SMALL TOWNS AND VILLAGES, SOME LOCATED AS FAR AWAY AS 60 MILES FROM THE NEAREST CITY OR HOSPITAL. ACCESS TO SERVICES, INCLUDING PRIMARY CARE PROVIDERS (PCP) IN SOME AREAS IS LIMITED. GAPS IN CARE CAN BE DIRECTLY RELATED TO ACCESS ISSUES: FOR EXAMPLE, A PATIENT WHO LIVES IN NORTHERN HERKIMER COUNTY, MAY HAVE ACCESS TO A PCP, BUT MIGHT BE REQUIRED TO TRAVEL 50 OR MORE MILES TO RECEIVE TREATMENT FOR LUNG CANCER. OTHER DEMOGRAPHICS, SUCH AS ATTAINED EDUCATIONAL LEVELS, LANGUAGE AND CULTURAL DIVERSITY, AND ECONOMIC LEVELS, PROVIDE ADDITIONAL CHALLENGES WITHIN THE CATCHMEN AREA. FOR EXAMPLE: THE CITY OF UTICA IS HOME TO THE FOURTH-LARGEST REFUGEE CENTER IN THE UNITED STATES; MANY OF THESE RECENT REFUGEES AND THEIR FAMILIES ENCOUNTER LANGUAGE, LITERACY, CULTURAL, AND ECONOMIC BARRIERS IN ACCESSING CARE.
COMMUNITY SERVICE PLAN	SCHEDULE H PART I LINE 6A	LOCAL CESSATION SERVICES/EFFECTIVENESS OF PROGRAM SUCCESS OF THE PROGRAM IS MEASURED THROUGH THE SUCCESS OF INDIVIDUAL FACILITIES AND COMMUNITY EDUCATION AND COMPLIANCE. DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH TOBACCO CONTROL PROGRAM DELIVERABLES, GROWTH REQUIRED/MEASURED ANNUALLY INCLUDE: -NUMBER OF HEALTHCARE PROVIDER ORGANIZATIONS THAT PARTICIPATE IN PROVIDER EDUCATION AND SUSTAINABLE DOCUMENTATION SYSTEMS CHANGE -NUMBER OF HEALTHCARE PROVIDER ORGANIZATIONS THAT MOVE TO A MAINTENANCE PHASE; DEMONSTRATING SUSTAINED CHANGES IN STANDARD OF CARE FOR THE TREATMENT OF TOBACCO DEPENDENCE (CRITERIA EXISTS) -NUMBER OF TRAININGS AND TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE VISITS PROVIDED BY CESSATION CENTER STAFF TO LOCAL HEALTHCARE PROVIDER ORGANIZATIONS -NUMBER OF MEDICAID CLAIMS FOR PHARMACOTHERAPY FOR SMOKING CESSATION -NUMBER OF MEDICAID CLAIMS FOR SMOKING CESSATION COUNSELING (PREGNANT WOMEN) -NUMBER OF HEALTHCARE PROVIDER REFERRALS TO THE NEW YORK STATE SMOKERS QUITLINE THE CESSATION CENTER HAS FACILITATED A WELL-ESTABLISHED COLLABORATION AMONG LOCAL HCPOS TO OFFER INTENSIVE INTERVENTION COMMUNITY SMOKING CESSATION CLASSES AT SEVEN DIFFERENT LOCATIONS WITHIN THE TRI-COUNTY REGION. IT IS THE ROLE OF THE CESSATION CENTER TO ESTABLISH PARTICIPATION AGREEMENTS, PROVIDE BASELINE TRAINING TO CLASS FACILITATORS, FACILITATE THE CREATION OF THE TRI-ANNUAL CESSATION CLASS CALENDAR, MAIL CALENDARS TO LOCAL HEALTH CARE PROVIDER ORGANIZATIONS (HCPOS) AND PRIMARY CARE PROVIDERS (PCP), COLLECT AND ANALYZE OUTCOMES DATA, AND ADMINISTER STIPENDS TO ORGANIZATIONS THAT HOST THE CLASSES. THESE CLASSES HAVE DEMONSTRATED 6-MONTH QUIT RATES OF 20-35% AND 12-MONTH QUIT RATES OF 20-30% OVER TIME. LOCAL HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS APPRECIATE HAVING A LOCAL RESOURCE FOR CESSATION FOR THEIR PATIENTS TO ENHANCE THE SERVICES AVAILABLE THROUGH THE QUITLINE. IN ADDITION, MUCH OF THE HOSPITAL STAFF RESPONSIBLE FOR PROVIDING BRIEF CESSATION INTERVENTIONS, AS WELL AS PCP OFFICE STAFF, HAVE PARTICIPATED IN TRAININGS ON TREATING TOBACCO USE AND DEPENDENCE, MAKING THEM AVAILABLE AS INDIVIDUAL, LOCAL CESSATION RESOURCES. THE TOBACCO CESSATION CENTER ALSO SUPPORTS CESSATION AMONG LOCAL EMPLOYERS AND COLLEGE CAMPUSES. STARTED IN 2004, THE CESSATION CENTER HAD ESTABLISHED A COMPREHENSIVE EMPLOYEE AND STUDENT CESSATION PROTOCOL THAT INCLUDES THE DISTRIBUTION ON NICOTINE REPLACEMENT THERAPY (NRT) TO INDIVIDUALS WHOSE INSURANCE DOES NOT COVER NRT. THE PROGRAM COMBINED COUNSELING, PHARMACOTHERAPY AND SUPPORT FOR EMPLOYEES AND STUDENTS AT PARTICIPATING ORGANIZATIONS. AS THE DOH FUNDING FOR THE PROVISION OF NICOTINE REPLACEMENT THERAPY HAS SIGNIFICANTLY DIMINISHED, THE CESSATION CENTER HAS WORKED WITH LOCAL EMPLOYERS TO ENHANCE THEIR CESSATION BENEFITS AVAILABLE THROUGH THEIR OWN HEALTH INSURANCE, MAKING THE PROGRAM SUSTAINABLE. IN ADDITION TO WORKING THROUGH THE TRI-COUNTY TOBACCO CESSATION CENTER, THE ONEIDA AND HERKIMER COUNTIES CHRONIC DISEASE WORK GROUP IS DEDICATED TO AN EXPANDED REGIONAL EFFORT TO DEVELOP AND IMPLEMENT STRATEGIES THAT WILL ENHANCE THE HEALTH AND WELLNESS OF THE COMMUNITY MEMBERS IN ONEIDA AND HERKIMER COUNTIES. THE GROUP IS COMPRISED OF REPRESENTATIVES FROM DIFFERENT HEALTHCARE AND COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS AND HAS AGREED TO A COLLABORATIVE APPROACH TO MEET THE FOLLOWING TWO, DATA-DRIVEN OBJECTIVES: 1. REDUCE THE MORBIDITY AND MORTALITY ASSOCIATED WITH CANCER, HEART DISEASE, STROKE AND DIABETES. 2. INCREASE HEALTHCARE PROVIDER INTERVENTIONS RELATED TO PREVENTION AND EARLY DETECTION OF CHRONIC DISEASES (CANCER, HEART DISEASE, STROKE AND DIABETES.) AS OF JULY 17, 2010, THE WORK GROUP HAS MET FOUR TIMES (APRIL 22, MAY 27, JUNE 24 AND JULY 17) AND HAS A STANDING MEETING SET FOR THE FOURTH THURSDAY OF EACH MONTH AT 8 A.M. AT THE INITIAL MEETING, INFORMAL SUB-GROUPS WERE FORMED AND COMPLETED A ROOT-CAUSE ANALYSIS OF THE DATA-DRIVEN OBJECTIVES RELATED TO CANCER, HEART DISEASE, STROKE AND DIABETES. COMMON AREAS BETWEEN THE DISEASES WERE IDENTIFIED: . NEED FOR INCREASED HEALTHCARE PROVIDER UNDERSTANDING OF BEST PRACTICES FOR PREVENTION . LACK OF APPROPRIATE COMMUNITY HEALTH SCREENINGS . LACK OF AN INFORMATION CLEARINGHOUSE IN EACH COUNTY TO DISSEMINATE INFORMATION ON ALREADY EXISTING SERVICES RELATED TO PREVENTION AND TREATMENT. STRATEGIES TO ADDRESS THE COMMON AREAS WERE CONCEIVED. AT SUBSEQUENT MEETINGS, SUBJECT-MATTER EXPERTS WERE INVITED TO JOIN THE GROUP; THE STRATEGIES WERE REFINED AND A PERMANENT SUB-GROUP WAS FORMED TO RESEARCH AND MAKE RECOMMENDATIONS RELATED TO BEST PRACTICES. MUCH DISCUSSION HAS ENSUED OVER THE USE OF SCREENINGS AS A METHOD TO MEET OUR OBJECTIVES. THE GROUP HAS COME TO CONSENSUS IN AGREEING THAT SCREENINGS SHOULD BE VIEWED IN TWO WAYS: ENGAGING PATIENTS WHO HAVE HEALTH INSURANCE TO PARTICIPATE IN COVERED HEALTH SCREENINGS AND THE PROVISION OF COMMUNITY SCREENINGS TO TARGET POPULATIONS (UNINSURED, THOSE WHO LIVE IN RURAL AREAS, AND TARGET POPULATIONS IDENTIFIED IN THE DATA). RECOMMENDED STRATEGIES AND OPERATIONAL METHODOLOGIES: 1. DEVELOP AND DISTRIBUTE EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICES GUIDES TO LOCAL HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS FOR REVIEW WITH THEIR PATIENTS, AS WELL AS ENCOURAGING PATIENT SELF-ADVOCACY. A. USE EXISTING SCREENING RECOMMENDATION MATERIALS FROM THE AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY (ACS), AMERICAN HEART ASSOCIATION (AHA), AND AMERICAN DIABETES ASSOCIATION (ADA). SCREENING GUIDES ARE A PRODUCT OF THE PREVENTATIVE HEALTH PARTNERSHIP, A NATIONAL COLLABORATIVE OF THE ACS, AHA AND ADA. THEY INCLUDE THE MOST UP-TO-DATE SCREENING RECOMMENDATIONS AND HAVE BEEN FIELD TESTED BY THE PREVENTATIVE HEALTH PARTNERSHIP. B. USE CURRENT WORK GROUP MEMBER ACTIVITIES, I.E. COUNTY FAIRS, CANAL DAYS, ETC. TO DISTRIBUTE THE SCREENING GUIDELINES. C. DEVELOP A PROTOCOL FOR UTILIZING THE MATERIALS AT SELECT CONFIRMED PILOT HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS: ROME MEDICAL GROUP ROME MEDICAL GROUP: CAMDEN CAMPUS FSLH ADIRONDACK COMMUNITY PHYSICIANS NORTH UTICA OFFICE FSLH ADIRONDACK COMMUNITY PHYSICIANS WATERVILLE OFFICE SEMC CLINTON MEDICAL PRACTICE GROUP SEMC SAUQUOIT MEDICAL PRACTICE GROUP LITTLE FALLS HOSPITAL NEWPORT PRIMARY CARE SITE D. BEGIN PILOT (PROVIDER DISTRIBUTION OF MATERIALS AND PLACEMENT OF PATIENT EDUCATION MATERIALS IN EXAM AND WAITING ROOMS) SEPTEMBER 15, 2010, ENDING DECEMBER 15, 2010, WITH 30- AND 90-DAY FOLLOW-UP VISITS. THE WORK GROUP HAS PROPOSED USING THE MATERIALS IN TWO DIFFERENT WAYS: . WORKING WITH A PILOT STUDY GROUP OF PHYSICIAN OFFICES, PATIENTS WILL BE EXPOSED TO A HEALTH CARD WITH INFORMATION (PASSIVELY) IN THE WAITING ROOM. UPON BEING ESCORTED TO AN EXAM ROOM, THE NURSE WILL POINT OUT A POSTER ON THE WALL AND GIVE THE PATIENT A "TEAR-OFF" SHEET TO DISCUSS WITH THE PROVIDER. THE PROVIDER WILL QUERY THE PATIENT FOR QUESTIONS AND RECOMMEND (AND HOPEFULLY, ORDER) APPROPRIATE SCREENS. THIS THREE-MONTH PILOT WILL INCLUDE MONTHLY SITE VISITS AND A FORMAL PROVIDER EVALUATION AT THE END OF THE TRIAL. . UTILIZING COMMUNITY EDUCATION OPPORTUNITIES, MEMBERS OF THE CHRONIC DISEASE WORK GROUP WILL DISTRIBUTE THE "TEAR OFF" SHEETS AT HEALTH FAIRS, EMPLOYEE FAIRS, ETC. A FORMAL EVALUATION TOOL HAS BEEN DEVELOPED TO DETERMINE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THIS APPROACH, AS WELL. E. DEVELOP EVALUATION MEASURES: EVALUATE PILOT PROGRAM, COMPLETE RECOMMENDED PROCESS/PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENTS, WITH COMMUNITY-WIDE ROLLOUT (GROUP MEMBER REPRESENTATION) APRIL 2011. F. INCREASE THE REACH OF THE INFORMATION BY REQUESTING THAT LOCAL EMPLOYERS AND HEALTH INSURERS DISTRIBUTE AND DISSEMINATE INFORMATION ON HEALTH SCREENINGS. G. MAKE A COLLECTIVE REQUEST (FSLH, ROME MEMORIAL HOSPITAL, SEMC, AND BASSETT) TO LOCAL MEDIA OUTLETS TO DEVELOP AND AIR COMMERCIALS PROMOTING THE SCREENING CAMPAIGN. 2. DEVELOP A MULTI-ORGANIZATIONAL COLLABORATIVE TO PROVIDE SELECTED COMMUNITY SCREENINGS TO TARGET POPULATIONS (UNINSURED, RURAL COMMUNITY MEMBERS, SELECT TARGET POPULATIONS IDENTIFIED IN THE DATA).A. COMPLETE AN ASSESSMENT OF WHAT SCREENING/EDUCATION/TREATMENT OFFERINGS ARE CURRENTLY BEING OFFERED BY WORK GROUP MEMBERS (COMPLETE). B. WORK WITH CANCER PROGRAM SERVICES (COVERS BOTH ONEIDA AND HERKIMER COUNTIES) TO ENHANCE THE FOUR EXISTING RURAL HEALTH FAIRS. C. SUPPLEMENT THE CURRENT SCHEDULE WITH ONE TO TWO ADDITIONAL OPPORTUNITIES TO REACH THE TARGET POPULATIONS. IT IS THE RECOMMENDATION OF THE BEST PRACTICES SUBGROUP TO PARTICIPATE IN THE VOICES FOR CHRIST CRUSADE IN ROME ON AUGUST 21. (THIS EVENT DREW OVER 2,000 PARTICIPANTS LAST YEAR, PRIMARILY AFRICAN AMERICANS AND HISPANICS FROM BOTH ROME AND UTICA.) THERE WAS A REQUEST FROM ORGANIZERS FOR HEALTHCARE PARTICIPANTS, AND A SMALL CONTINGENT OF THE SUBGROUP TOOK PART IN THE CRUSADE (MAMI INTERPRETERS, FSLH, ROME MEMORIAL HOSPITAL AND CPS). THE GENERAL CONSENSUS WAS IT WAS VALUABLE AND IF THE GROUP GETS INVOLVED EARLIER ON, IT WOULD BE BENEFICIAL TO PARTICIPATE IN FUTURE YEARS.
COMMUNITY SERVICE PLAN	SCHEDULE H PART I LINE 6A	3. DISSEMINATE INFORMATION THROUGH AN INFORMATION CLEARINGHOUSE IN EACH COUNTY. A. GARNER AN ADMINISTRATIVE COMMITMENT FROM THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT IN ONEIDA AND HERKIMER COUNTIES TO SERVE AS INFORMATION CLEARINGHOUSES (PROVIDING RESOURCES TO COMMUNITY/BUSINESS MEMBERS WHO ARE LOOKING FOR LOCAL SCREENING, PREVENTION AND TREATMENT SERVICES WITHIN THE COUNTY). THIS WOULD INCLUDE POSTING COMMUNITY EVENTS SUCH AS HEALTH FAIRS, ETC. TO THE COUNTY DOH WEBSITES, AS WELL AS RESPONDING TO REQUESTS FROM COMMUNITY MEMBERS/BUSINESSES FOR RESOURCES TO PROVIDE REQUESTED SERVICES. (EXAMPLE: A LOCAL BUSINESS COULD CALL THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT AND RECEIVE INFORMATION ON WHAT ORGANIZATIONS WOULD PROVIDE A BLOOD PRESSURE SCREENING FOR THEM.) THIS WEBSITE MAY BE ORGANIZED INTO DIRECT CATEGORIES: COMMUNITY CALENDAR, PREVENTION/EDUCATION, TREATMENT OPTIONS, AND FINANCIAL RESOURCES. A SUBCOMMITTEE HAS BEEN FORMED TO FINALIZE THE ELEMENTS OF THIS INITIATIVE. B. UTILIZING THE WORK GROUP, PROVIDE THE TWO COUNTIES WITH AS MUCH INFORMATION AS POSSIBLE TO UTILIZE, DEVELOP AND MAINTAIN THE INFORMATION CLEARINGHOUSE. C. COLLECTIVELY REQUEST (FSLH, ROME MEMORIAL HOSPITAL, SEMC, AND BASSETT) THAT LOCAL MEDIA OUTLETS DEVELOP AND RUN PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENTS RELATED TO THE ROLE OF THE HEALTH DEPARTMENTS, TO PROVIDE GOOD PUBLIC RELATIONS BETWEEN ALL OF THESE HEALTHCARE ENTITIES AND THE COMMUNITY, AND TO PROMOTE COLLABORATION AMONG THE HOSPITALS, NOT COMPETITION. PRIORITY 4 ACCESS TO QUALITY HEALTHCARE THIS IDENTIFIED INITIATIVE, WHILE NOT A CORE COMPONENT OF THE 2009 ACTION PLANS, HAS A COLLABORATIVE TEAM OF AREA AGENCIES AND PROVIDERS WORKING TO DEVELOP AN ACTION PLAN FOR 2011 AND BEYOND. THE GOAL IS BETTER USE OF COMMUNITY HEALTH RESOURCES THROUGH HEALTH EDUCATION AND AWARENESS WITH A STRATEGY TO REDUCE EMERGENCY ROOM USAGE FOR PRIMARY NON-EMERGENT PURPOSES VIA A PUBLIC EDUCATION CAMPAIGN. FOUR OBJECTIVES HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED: 1. ASSESS CURRENT EMERGENCY ROOM USAGE PATTERNS. 2. ASSESS URGENT AND PRIMARY CARE PROVIDERS ABILITY TO ACCOMMODATE NON-EMERGENT NEEDS. 3. ASSESS CURRENT INFORMATION AND EDUCATION CAMPAIGNS DESIGNED TO REDUCE INAPPROPRIATE USE OF EMERGENCY ROOMS. 4. DEVELOP RECOMMENDATIONS FOR NEW STRATEGIES THAT WILL POSITIVELY IMPACT EFFECTIVE UTILIZATION OF EMERGENCY ROOMS. IMPLEMENTATION STEPS ARE IN THE DEVELOPMENT PHASE AND THE TEAMS, AND THEIR SUBCOMMITTEES ARE GATHERING DATA THROUGH THE END OF 2010 WITH RECOMMENDATIONS TO BE DEVELOPED IN 2011. PRIORITY 5 PHYSICAL FITNESS AND NUTRITION ALSO NOT A CORE PRIORITY - THE GET MOVING! INITIATIVE IS BEING DEVELOPED BY THE REGIONAL HEALTH COUNCIL OF HERKIMER AND ONEIDA COUNTIES WITH THE HELP OF THE COMMUNITYS VOICE THROUGH THE 2010 REGIONAL HEALTH SUMMIT. THE PROJECT IS SPEARHEADED BY A NUMBER OF INFLUENTIAL POLICY MAKERS AND PUBLIC HEALTH ADVOCATES FROM BOTH HERKIMER AND ONEIDA COUNTY IN ADDITION TO MANY LOCAL NOT-FOR-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS. GET MOVING! IS FUNDED BY THE HEALTHY COMMUNITIES GRANT FROM THE NYS DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH THROUGH THE ONEIDA COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH WITH SUBSTANTIAL SUPPORT BY HERKIMER COUNTY HEALTHNET AND THE PARTICIPATION OF THE HERKIMER COUNTY PUBLIC HEALTH AND THE UNITED WAY OF THE VALLEY AND GREATER UTICA AREA. GET MOVING! SUPPORTS THE GOAL OF IMPROVING THE HEALTH/WELLNESS OF HERKIMER AND ONEIDA COUNTY RESIDENTS. MORE SPECIFICALLY, GET MOVING! AIMS TO ADDRESS THE ISSUES OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY AND NUTRITION AT THREE LEVELS OF IMPLEMENTATION ACROSS BOTH COUNTIES. THREE AREAS HAVE BEEN DEFINED: SCHOOLS, WORKPLACE, AND THE COMMUNITY. RESEARCH SUGGESTS THAT SUCCESSFUL INTERVENTIONS AT ALL THREE LEVELS WILL HELP TO REDUCE THE NUMBER OF SEDENTARY AND OVERWEIGHT INDIVIDUALS RESIDING IN OUR REGION OF NYS AND SUBSEQUENTLY REDUCE THE POOR HEALTH OUTCOMES AND LARGE HEALTH CARE COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH OBESITY.STRATEGIC PLANNING AND ACTION PLANS ARE CURRENTLY UNDER DEVELOPMENT, BASED UPON THE RESEARCH CONDUCTED BY MASTER OF PUBLIC HEALTH CANDIDATE KYLE MILLER, UNDER THE GUIDANCE OF THOMAS H. DENNISON, PH.D., ASSOCIATE DIRECTOR, CENTRAL NEW YORK MASTER OF PUBLIC HEALTH, THE MAXWELL SCHOOL, SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY. SECTION 6: DISSEMINATION OF THE REPORT TO THE PUBLIC THE COMMUNITY SERVICE PLAN IS SHARED WITH THE PUBLIC THROUGH OUR WEB SITE WWW.FAXTONSTLUKES.COM AS WELL AS WITH OUR COMMUNITY PARTNERS INCLUDING THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH FOR BOTH ONEIDA AND HERKIMER COUNTIES, ST. ELIZABETH MEDICAL CENTER AND ROME MEMORIAL HOSPITAL. SECTION 7: CHANGES IMPACTING COMMUNITY HEALTH/PROVISION OF CHARITY CARE/ACCESS TO SERVICES THE ORGANIZATION MONITORS THE TRENDS IN BAD DEBT AND CHARITY CARE OF THE UNINSURED AND UNDER-INSURED PATIENTS. 2007 CHARITY CARE $1,758,000 BAD DEBT $7,132,309 2008 CHARITY CARE $1,724,000 BAD DEBT $9,026,867 2009 CHARITY CARE $1,399,044 BAD DEBT $9,259,592 2010 (YTD THROUGH AUGUST 2010) PROJECTED CHARITY CARE $ 1,006,490 ANNUALIZED: $1,509,736 BAD DEBT $5,465,326 $ 8,197,989 CONSOLIDATION PLAYS A KEY ROLE IN THE MANAGEMENT OF LIMITED RESOURCES. FAXTON ST. LUKES HEALTHCARE COMBINED THE MANAGEMENT TEAMS OF VISITING NURSE ASSOCIATION, MOHAWK VALLEY HOME CARE AND SENIOR NETWORK HEALTH TO BETTER CONTROL OVERSIGHT COSTS AND PROVIDES THE SAME LEVEL OF CARE FOR OUR COMMUNITIES. WE CONTINUE TO COLLABORATE WITH ST. ELIZABETH MEDICAL CENTER THROUGH THE MOHAWK VALLEY HEART INSTITUTE. THE HEART SURGERY AND REHABILITATION PROGRAM PROVIDES THE ONLY HEART SURGERY PROGRAM IN THE AREA ENSURING ACCESS FOR A TWO COUNTY AREA AND SUPPORTS KEEPING OUR PATIENTS CLOSE TO HOME AND FAMILY. FSLH OPERATES AND FINANCIALLY SUPPORTS THE DIABETES OUTREACH PROGRAM, CENTRAL NEW YORK DIABETES EDUCATION PROGRAM. THE PROGRAM WORKS COLLABORATIVELY WITH ST. ELIZABETHS TO IDENTIFY PATIENTS IN THE COMMUNITY WHO ARE AT RISK AND NEED ADDITIONAL SUPPORT WITH CARE. PHYSICIAN RECRUITMENT CONTINUES TO BE CHALLENGING FOR OUR AREA AND THROUGHOUT NEW YORK STATE. OUR ORGANIZATION CONTINUES TO SEEK NEW PROVIDERS FOR A NUMBER OF PHYSICIAN SPECIALTIES AND THAT LIST IS EXPECTED TO GROW IN THE NEXT FIVE YEARS AS A LARGE NUMBER OFPHYSICIANS RETIRE AND LEAVE THE STATE. NEW YORK STATE IS LESS ATTRACTIVE THAN OTHER STATES DUE TO HIGH REGULATION, TAXES AND LACK OF GROWTH IN THE UPSTATE REGION. PHYSICIANS ARE ALSO LOOKING FOR SETTINGS WITH GROUP PRACTICES OR HOSPITAL EMPLOYMENT WHICH PROVIDES THEM WITH A BETTER QUALITY OF LIFE. THEY WANT LIMITED OR NO CALL RESPONSIBILITIES, AND GREATER ACCESS TO CLINICAL AND INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY. NEW YORK STATE GOVERNMENT PLAYS A SIGNIFICANT ROLE IN CREATING A BETTER, MORE ECONOMICAL ENVIRONMENT FOR PHYSICIAN RECRUITMENT. CONTINUED WORK WITH OUR LEGISLATORS IS IMPERATIVE FOR ALL OF NEW YORK STATE HEALTHCARE. SECTION 8: FINANCIAL AID PROGRAM THE TREND CONTINUES WITH AN INCREASING NUMBER OF OUR AGING POPULATION ON MEDICARE WITHOUT A SUPPLEMENTAL PLAN, WHO CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY THE DEDUCTIBLE/CO-INSURANCE BALANCES. IN MOST CASES, THEY DO NOT QUALIFY FOR CHARITY CARE OR MEDICAID. WE OFFER A TWELVE-MONTH INTEREST FREE PAYMENT PLAN ON BALANCES GREATER THAN $500 AND A SIX-MONTH PLAN FOR BALANCES UNDER $500. WE PROVIDE A MEDICAID ADVOCATE, WHO MEETS WITH THE SELF PAY INPATIENTS, WHILE THEY ARE IN THE HOSPITAL OR MAKES AN APPOINTMENT TO MEET WITH THEM AT THEIR HOME TO ASSIST THEM IN THE APPLICATION AS WELL AS MEETING WITH THE COUNTY TO SEEK ASSISTANCE. FOR OUR INCREASING SELF PAY POPULATION, WE HAVE MORE EMPLOYED MORE FINANCIAL COUNSELORS. THIS HELPS THE PATIENTS IN MAKING AN APPROPRIATE CHOICE FOR THEIR FINANCIAL NEEDS WHETHER IT IS AFFORDABLE INSURANCE, BANK LOAN, INTEREST FREE LOAN, OR CHARITY CARE WRITE-OFF. OUR STATEMENTS ARE ALSO MORE PATIENT-FRIENDLY WITH A BROCHURE FOR OUR PATIENTS DESCRIBING ALL OF OUR PAYMENT OPTIONS INCLUDING CONTACT NUMBERS. THE BROCHURE IS LOCATED IN ALL OF OUR WAITING ROOMS, PHYSICIAN'S OFFICES AND IS AVAILABLE ON THE HOSPITAL WEBSITE. _______ THE 2009 COMMUNITY SERVICE PLAN IS A PUBLICATION OF FAXTON ST.
