Our Story
First Steps…January 2013
Answer the question:
If the appropriate tools are in place:
• Are vaccine decisions within a clinical staff
member’s Scope of Practice?
YES!
Needs Assessment
• CDC/ACIP Pneumococcal Recommendations updated
• Clinical staff (RN, LPN, MA) knowledge of Pneumococcal
vaccines varied
• Not administering Prevnar to Adults….yet
• Need identified:
• Pneumococcal vaccine standard of care
Creating the TEAM
• Identify Stakeholders and Champions
• Engage and motivate clinical staff
• Educate and Empower
• Enhance autonomy
• Change Practice
• “Work smarter not harder”
Choosing a Quality Measure

Introduction of Care Coordination
• In 2013, Care Coordinators were introduced to the Primary
Care setting as part of PCMH
• Embedded Care Coordinator (ECC) is an RN who works with
the adult population to:
• Promote wellness
• Enhance disease management
• Coordinate care across the continuum
• Goal: identify gaps in patient care
"Recognize the talent of others
and acknowledge it."
- Gloria Smith, PhD, RN, FAAN of the W.K. Kellogg Foundation
Define the Problem
Jennifer Thebodeau, RN, ECC identified that
there were potentially missed opportunities to
vaccinate adults at:
• Nurse Visits
• Sick Visits
• Medicare Wellness Visits
Creating Vaccine Opportunities
(Scott-Jones & Lawrensen, 2008)
• Standing Orders are Safe and Effective in Primary
Care
• Benefits of a Pneumococcal Standing Order:
• Enhance Practice autonomy
• Limit Provider interruption
• Capture unvaccinated Adult population
• Improve Patient Outcomes
PDSA
What is a PDSA?
A model for testing ideas that you think may create an improvement.

Stakeholders
Clinical Staff Feedback:
• “Standing Order is confusing.”
• “I don’t know where to start…”
• “I need more help with these vaccines.”
Need identified:
• Pneumococcal decision support tool
Decision Support Tool: Algorithm Attempt #1
February, 2014
Stakeholders
“Too confusing.”
“Too many colors.”
“Too many decisions.”
“I don’t like it.”

Pneumococcal Algorithm Re-Design
Developing Decision Support Tools
The OODA loop
Observe
Orient
Decide
Act
Decision Support
What is it?
• Referring to a reference tool providing specific clinical guidance at decision point
• For use at the Point of Care
Why did we need it?
• Asking staff to make more decisions
• Decisions involved several criteria and were conditional
3/28/2016
12
Observing the Problem
Quality Clinical Team
• ~12 clinical staff representing various specialties within FMP
• Discussed observations at our monthly meeting
• We Decided staff needed more guidance
Then we Acted: A full-color flow chart was drafted
• Looked a lot like the CDC/ACIP flow chart
Decision Support Tool: Algorithm Attempt #2
February, 2014
The pivotal step – “Orient”
• Orienting is the key to successfully using the OODA
loop
• Without Orientation, observations are meaningless
• The resulting Decisions and Actions are then flawed
• Fortunately, OODA is a continuous feedback process
Second Attempt
• Incidentally, an email reminder to Care Coordinators
about the algorithm revealed widespread confusion
about pneumococcal vaccination (“Observe”)
• A thorough review of the current tool and ACIP
guidelines revealed problems
• The guidelines require many steps in the decision
process, most were skipped on our first design
(“Orient”)
Stakeholders
• “Easier to follow.”
• “I’ll still check with the Provider if I have questions.”
• “This is still too confusing…”
Fixing ProblemsApril, 2014
• A new tool was needed with as guidance for as
many steps as possible (“Decide”)
• A second algorithm was drafted with key differences
(“Act”)
• Step-by-Step Design
• Color Coding
• ACIP table of high-risk conditions included
3/28/2016
13
Step-By-Step Design
Starts with Identifying High Risk Conditions
Step-By-Step Design
Next, Identify
Pneumococcal
Immunization Status
Step-By-Step Design
Then, just “Follow the finger”
Color Coding
• Enhances Readability
• Enhances
discrimination between
different risk groups
ACIP table of high-risk conditions
included• Alternate visual
representation
• Provides clarifying
resource
• Matching color coding
• Actually 2 tools in one!
Part Deux…
• 2014 recommendations released just months after
above process
• Added one time routine dose of PCV 13 for 65+
population
• Initially tried expanding existing algorithm
• Eventually opted for 2 separate tools
• 19-64 high risk conditions tool
• 65+ tool
3/28/2016
14
2014 revision
• Same style tool, but key differences:
• Vertical Orientation
• No need for high-risk condition selection
• Start with Immunization status, then follow the column
• Kept 19-64 year algorithm the same, added
directions to consult the new tool for 65+
population
• Second time around went smoother and faster
(Same day turnaround!) • Since then 2 more minor revisions with similar results
65+ tool
Color Coded by Immunization Status
Vertical Orientation
New Tools in the Box
A Couple Questions
• Who discusses vaccine eligibility with
your patients?• How and when is eligibility decided?
• What do you (they) say?
• Who answers the questions?
• What happens if patients are vaccine
hesitant or decline vaccination?• Is the declination documented?
• Is it followed up?
Adopting a New Method
How do we get people to use it?
• Address or discover the area worth improving
• Prove effectiveness
• The new method is equal/more effective
• Prove utility
• Anyone can be trained to use the new tool
Immediate Hesitancy
• “I’m not the doctor, I’m not the Provider…this isn’t my decision.”
• “I know the schedules and the recommendations, but the patients start to ask questions and I don’t have the answers.”
• “We see patients every 15 minutes, my clinical staff don’t have time to review the immunization history and go down that rabbit hole…along with all their other responsibilities”
I can’t, I wont.

Don’t Do It Alone…
Create Champions
• FMP initiative modeled after aspects of CDC
recommendations and strategies
• Clinical education took ownership of the
initiative and employed established resources
• ECCs
• Clinical Preceptors
• QCT
CDC Recommendations in Practice
• Strategies for Increasing Adult Immunization
Rates
• Strong recommendation
• Quality Improvement Projects
• AFIX
• Reminders for Providers
• Strategies for high risk patients
http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/hcp/adults/for-practice/increasing-vacc-rates.html
CDC: Strong Recommendation
What does that even mean?
Our goal:
• Every patient, every visit!
Process to achievement:
• Give all clinical staff the knowledge and ability necessary to
have the vaccine discussion
• With practice comes efficiency and process improvement
• The algorithms aid in efficiency
• Document declinations
http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/hcp/adults/for-practice/increasing-vacc-rates.html
CDC: Quality Improvement Projects
CDC makes several (4) recommendations for
Immunization Quality Improvements
• Increase adult vaccination rates
• Reduce disparities in immunization rates
Our goal:
• Decrease practice to practice, Provider to Provider variability
in vaccination rate for pneumococcal vaccines, thereby
increasing vaccination rates
http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/hcp/adults/for-practice/increasing-vacc-rates.html
CDC: Quality Improvement
Projects
Process to achievement:
• Use technology to our advantage
• Distribute surveys, monthly clinical quizzes and education
through email
• Practice with the algorithm
• Create a culture of question AND answer
http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/hcp/adults/for-practice/increasing-vacc-rates.html
CDC: Reminder Systems
CDC outlines strategies for Providers to improve
immunization coverage in their practice
• It cannot be assumed that vaccines are being given to every
eligible patient
Our Goal:
• Review of immunization history becomes part of the
outpatient rooming process
• Increases Provider-Clinical staff discussion of immunizations

CDC: Reminder Systems
Process to achievement:
• Review of immunization history and immunization
eligibility becomes part of Clinical Orientation
• Algorithm identification and usage also improves
• Reviewing immunization history becomes part of the
day-to-day rooming process
http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/hcp/adults/for-practice/increasing-vacc-rates.html
CDC: Strategies for High-Risk Adults
CDC provided guidance for “targeted immunization” of high-risk adult populations
Our Goal:
• To have clinical staff aid in identification of those high-risk adult populations
Process to achievement:
• Empower the clinical staff to identify and start this vaccine conversation
• Creation and adoption of 19-64yr and 65+yr Pneumococcal Algorithms
http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/hcp/adults/for-practice/increasing-vacc-rates.html
AFIX: Assessment, Feedback, Incentives, and
eXchange

http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/programs/afix/index.html
AFIX: Assessment, Feedback, Incentives, and
eXchange
Incentives to recognize and reward improved
performance.
eXchange of information with providers to follow up on
their progress towards quality improvement in
immunization services and improvement in
immunization coverage levels
http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/programs/afix/index.html
Implementation at Orientation
Set the minimum standard
(Training/Empowerment)• Robust immunization education during orientation
• Everyone learns the basics about immunizations, standard and catch up schedules and special populations/considerations
• Everyone learns about PCV13 and PPSV23
• Everyone learns about the algorithms and standing orders
3/28/2016
17
Orientation continued…
Case Studies• Know how to find the resources
• Vaccine Management and Resource Binders
• Inter/Intranet Resources
• Senior staff
• Providers
• Clinical Education Department
Implementation For Established
Staff
Education from recognizable and accessible
lead staff
• Embedded Care Coordinators (ECC) are established in the
practice
• Familiar with Providers and practice workflows
• Familiar with chronically ill populations
• Existing communication channel with Clinical Education
Department
Float Staff Education and
MentorshipFloat staff – May be scheduled at any of the 70+
FMP practices• Scheduled assignments include both short and long term coverage
• From single day assignment to entire maternity or FMLA coverage
• Deciding immunization eligibility for Family, Internal, or Specialty Medicine
as well as Pediatrics
Immunization Education• Same Clinical orientation
• 1:1 mentor observation and mentorship until demonstrated competence
and skill sign off
• Each patient offers the opportunity for immunization history review
Patient-Centered Care
Ambulatory Care Barriers
Identify potential barriers
• Physical
• Financial
• Psychological
Physical Barriers
• Deciding eligibility could take too long
• Time from immunization decision to
execution could be too long
• Convenience is important
3/28/2016
18
Financial Barriers
Patients will often decline vaccination if
not immediately aware of financial burden• Making patients aware to investigate potential financial
burden
• Knowing general insurance requirements increases patient
confidence
Basic ideas are instilled during orientation• The algorithm(s) account for some insurance prerequisites
Psychosocial Barriers
Patients that have bad vaccine experiences
tend to avoid further opportunities• This process may limit the bad experiences patients may have
(errors, cost, wait time, unclear recommendations, etc.)
• Inspiring confidence when the patient provides us with the
opportunity to care for them
Questions Answered
Who discusses vaccine eligibility with your
patients?
• All Clinical Staff
How and when is eligibility decided?
• At or before every visit
Questions Answered
Who answers the questions?
• All Clinical Staff
If your patient is vaccine hesitant or declines the vaccine, does anyone investigate the rationale?
• All Clinical Staff
Is there any follow up?
• Yes, at every visit
Empowering Shared Decisions
Patient Outreach Senior Supper
• Seniors in our community are invited to attend a
monthly health and wellness discussion.
• Offers opportunities to socialize and share a meal.
• Event focused on Adult Immunizations
• Nurses volunteered to be a clinical resource
• 47 Seniors attended
