Engaging Patients as Active Participants in their Own Care
• Opportunity to engage patients in a dialog with their own health.
• Surveys continue to support the good news that most patients report a high level of trust with their health care providers.
• At the same time, data suggests that patients are sometimes reluctant to engage in collaborative discussions with physicians about their choices in health care.
• Why patients are often reluctant to actively engage in a collaborative discussion about their health care choices.
Engaging Patients as Active Participants in their Own Care
• Patients and the public across many diverse demographic groups have shown a desire to become more involved in their care and more informed about their health (Frosch et al., 2012)

2012 Research Study Led by Dominick L. Frosch, PhD
“Communicating with Physicians About Medical Decisions: A Reluctance to Disagree”
• Showed that nearly all patients could envision asking questions (93%) and discussing preferences (94%)
• Few felt they would actually voice a disagreement and challenge their doctor (14%)
• Those not willing to disagree, about 47% feared being labeled “difficult” and 40% worried such actions would lead to a damaged relationship
• 51% thought it might compromise care
(

• 80 % of Internet users - seek health information online, making this the third most popular Internet activity (Fox, 2011).
• This growing interest in health represents an opportunity to increase patients’ involvement in their own care, in the care of their loved ones, and in the improvement of the overall system. It further highlights new roles for health professionals in partnering with patients to share reliable online sources of health information (Alston and Paget, 2012).
• Moreover, the development of new models of care delivery, such as patient-centered medical homes, health homes, and accountable care organizations (ACOs), offers opportunities to incorporate patient engagement at all levels of care.

Patient Engagement
What We Say:
• Want patients to take active role in making decisions about their health
• Want patients to ask questions
• Want patients to express values & preferences
What We know:
• Patients – even well educated, are reluctant to ask questions
• Patients fearful of challenging provider recommendations
• Many patients feel physicians are authoritarian (vs. “authoritative”

To promote the transformation to a “learning” system that continuously improves care management and patient outcomes — and that aims to reduce the estimated 30% of health spending that is wasted — the Institute of Medicine made 10 major recommendations:
• Improve capacity to capture clinical, care delivery process, and financial data for better care, system improvement and generation of new knowledge.
• Streamline and revise research regulations to improve care, promote capture of clinical data and generate knowledge.
• Accelerate integration of the best clinical knowledge into care decisions.
• Involve patients and families in decisions regarding health and health care, tailored to their preferences.

Conclusion 7-1: Improved patient engagement is associated with better patient experience, health, and quality of life and better economic outcomes, yet patient and family participation in care decisions remains limited.Related findings:• Patients often are insufficiently involved in care decisions. Fewer than half of patients receive clear information on the benefits and trade-offs of the treatments for their condition, and fewer than half are satisfied with their level of control in medical decision making (see also Chapter 2 in Full Report).• Patient-centered care has been correlated with better health care outcomes and quality of life, as well as other benefits. The use of patient-centered care in a primary care setting has been associated with reduced pain and discomfort, faster recovery in physical health, and improvements in emotional health.• If implemented properly, meaningful engagement of patients in their own care has the potential to reduce costs. For example, it has been reported that informed patients are up to 20 percent less likely than other patients to choose elective surgery.

• Promote community-clinical partnerships and services aimed at managing and improving health at the community level.
• Improve coordination and communication within and across organizations.
• Continuously improve health care operations to reduce waste, streamline care delivery and focus on activities that improve patient health.
• Structure payment to reward continuous learning and improvement in the provision of better care at lower cost.
• Increase transparency on health care system performance.
• Expand commitment to the goals of a continuously learning health care system.

10 IOM Recommendations for a Better Health Care System
Patient Engagement Objectives
Move patients to action to become involved in helping improve Maine's health care system. To do this they need to understand:• Major problems in US in safety, quality, cost, and
patient experience• Most patients are not aware of extent of problems• “Patients” are able to change the interaction in
the system• Involve other “caring patients” in change efforts
in a supportive environment to partner with providers to improve all aspects of health care

2. Get information to make informed choices about care
– Promote BHBM & GetBetterMaine – Help patients access information– Articles in newsletters– Provide additional information on organizational
websites3. Partner w/other organizations to help improve
health– (i.e. BHBM Partner Organizations) needed for
outreach
15
4. Work directly with health care providers to help improve the delivery, quality, experience of care
– Participate in provider committees (with training)
5. Work with stakeholders to drive system, policy, payment changes to transform care
– Meetings with local providers and health systems– Community forums on quality-cost

QC Efforts to Engage Patients/Consumers:
Partnering for Improvement• Engage consumers in QC governance - at all levels• Seek consumer input on all strategic activities
– QC Consumer Advisory Council
• Engage consumers in clinical redesign efforts, and support providers in their efforts - e.g. ME PCMH Pilot
• Provide messages, action steps, tools, and opportunities for engagement that support consumers in becoming more active partners in their care

• January 2011 - PCMHs incorporated “Core Expectation”
• April 2012 • QC Conference 2012 Occurred focusing on
partnering with patients• Created the “Partnering with Patients”
