Triple Aim Outcome Measures

Hello everyone, my name is —–.  As a case manager, I would present how the triple aim of improving population health, reducing cost, and enhancing the quality of care can be implemented with the help of hospital leaders and other healthcare workers at Sacred Heart Hospital (SHH). Moreover, the presentation will delve into governmental regulatory programs and outcome measures that will promote the coordinated care process to attain the triple aim of SHH. 

Purpose

This presentation has the significant objective of raising awareness among hospital leadership and clinical leadership about how the coordinated care process can be improved to attain the triple aim within the population of Barnes County Community, where SHH is located. This will be done by utilizing patient self-management and care coordination models, governmental regulatory initiatives, and outcome measures. Care coordination is necessary for achieving the triple aim and requires collaborative efforts of interdisciplinary healthcare organization teams.

Triple Aim and its Contribution to Healthcare Organization

The Triple Aim focuses on three key principles: improving the patient experience of care, decreasing the per capita cost of healthcare, and improving the health of populations,. In Sacred Heart Hospital, the application of Triple Aim can yield significant benefits in the following ways:

Experience of Care/ Patient Satisfaction

Enhancing the patient experience of care at SHH involves a multifaceted approach aimed at improving overall satisfaction. This can be done by implementing patient-centered care strategies and emphasizing open and effective communication between healthcare providers and patients (Kwame & Petrucka, 2021). Additionally, the comprehension of the population’s needs, such as increasing health literacy and the need for health insurance, reducing wait times, and facilitating follow-up care for patients. These efforts will result in increased patient satisfaction scores and the cultivation of trust between healthcare professionals and patients. 

Improving Population or Community Health

Sacred Heart Hospital can improve the population health of Barnes County Community by implementing preventive care programs and health education to ensure patients integrate preventive measures into their lives and improve overall health (Yamada & Arai, 2020). Moreover, it addresses social determinants of health, such as lack of transportation and poor health literacy level, and time-sensitive chores, such as farming. The hospital can collaborate with other healthcare entities to enable resource-sharing and facilitate anticipated outcomes such as decreased preventable diseases and increased awareness and participation in health-promoting activities. 

Decreasing Per Capita Costs

Efforts to decrease per capita costs at SHH involve carefully balancing cost-efficiency and quality care. The hospital must implement cost-effective care models and leverage technology to optimize healthcare delivery processes. Moreover, partnerships and collaborations with governmental or healthcare organizations can contribute to financial stability and facilitate care treatments to reduce hospital readmission rates and enhance the ability of the hospitals to provide quality care within a financially responsible framework (Fichtenberg et al., 2020).

By implementing the proposed strategies, SHH can achieve the triple aim tailored to address the demands of the community’s natives and hospital resources.
