Using simulation to improve the operational efficiency of a multi-disciplinary clinic. 运用模拟技术提高多学科诊所的运作效率。
A G Kalton, M R Singh, D A August, C M Parin, E J Othman
{"title":"Using simulation to improve the operational efficiency of a multi-disciplinary clinic.","authors":"A G Kalton,&nbsp;M R Singh,&nbsp;D A August,&nbsp;C M Parin,&nbsp;E J Othman","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>A recent trend in health care is to provide patients with the benefits of multi-disciplinary care during a single clinic visit. The University of Michigan Breast Care Center is a leading example of a multi-disciplinary clinic which has served the Midwest United States since 1985. A hallmark of the Breast Care Center operation is a patient care conference immediately following the clinical evaluation sessions, where each case is discussed by a group of experts for immediate evaluation and generation of recommendations. The Center has experienced significant increases in the number of patient visits over the nine years since its inception. The patient mix, initially all new patients, has matured, and returning patients are now a significant portion of the clinic load. Unfortunately, the success of the Breast Care Center strained its smooth operation. Physicians were unable to attend the patient care conference because the clinical evaluation sessions were too busy, and this undermined the quality of the care recommendations generated. Patients were complaining about long waits in the Breast Care Center and delays in getting their next appointment. To examine these operational problems and to suggest corrective actions, a simulation study was conducted. This paper reports the results of this study. Our findings provide interesting insights into the operation and management of multi-disciplinary clinics.</p>","PeriodicalId":77231,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Society for Health Systems","volume":"5 3","pages":"43-62"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"19992383","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Physician productivity measurement, methodology and implementation. 医师生产力测量、方法与实施。
P Lagasse
{"title":"Physician productivity measurement, methodology and implementation.","authors":"P Lagasse","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>These components are integrated into a single monthly report and distributed to all departments in the health system. Figures 2 and 3 illustrate the four main reports the system can generate. Shown are the overall facility report and the six month trend; the departmental report showing each department as compared to the facility; an individual department report that clearly illustrates each physician's contribution; and finally an individual provider report with trend analysis. These reports are modified slightly as required by each department, but the core information of RVUs/hour remains the basic comparative element. Each report contains comparisons of individual providers within their specialty, department or group, and at the facility and system level. Each department with specific needs has the report prepared to meet these needs, yet the entire facility follows a single standard to make inter-department comparisons meaningful. The information available on each individual report includes: Month. Number of patient visits. Number of unique patients. Average Number of visits per patient. Charges. Part A and Part B worked hours. Paid hours. RVUs generated per worked hour. Productivity measured against. The providers department average. The total group average. Year to date averages. Graphical depiction of RVUs. Hour with trend line.
