Primary care practitioners face many competing demands for their limited time. As a result, patients may not receive all the preventive care they require, including lung cancer screening.
Building capacity in multidisciplinary clinic teams to support cancer screening and prevention processes can help ensure all of your patient’s care needs are met.
Praxus Health, in partnership with the Health Innovation Group, recruited primary care teams to participate in a comprehensive practice facilitation training program geared towards lung cancer screening.
Teams learned how to optimize their multidisciplinary team members to support key processes required for cancer screening and prevention including leveraging their EMRs, optimizing clinic workflows and supporting patient care activities.
Practice facilitators are an essential resource that support physicians and teams to implement improvements within their practice environments. Practice facilitators possess key skills to support practices with implementing quality improvement (QI), including evidence translation, implementing new processes, and measuring/evaluating changes.
Leveraging practice facilitators to support the implementation of new clinic processes has been shown to significantly increase a team’s ability to implement and sustain practice improvements. Studies have shown that primary care practices are nearly 3x more likely to adopt evidence-based guidelines through practice facilitation, than direct to clinician education alone.
