Sign up for the launch of D2D 4.0 on September 29th: See how your team compared with nearly 120 of your peers who contributed data. Check out the new features, including summaries by LHIN and the ability to PRINT the report. Using data to improve: Whether or not you contributed data to D2D, you have a story to tell about what is (and isn’t) working when it comes to using data to drive QI. If you’re an ED, please complete this survey to share your story and help us all get even better at gathering and using data to improve care. Improving outcomes for CHF patients: Now that you’re able to identify your CHF patients (with standardized, TESTED EMR queries), learn more about how to improve outcomes for them. Register for this FREE webinar from the Cardiac Care Network of Ontario. Changes are coming to the post-discharge follow-up indicator in next year’s QIP! It will include follow-up from any clinician, whether in-person or via telephone (much like the D2D 4.0 measure). AFHTO members’ input made this possible! To learn about these and other changes, don’t forget to sign up for the webinar on Oct 5. Want to share your knowledge of measurement and improvement beyond AFHTO? HQO is seeking volunteers for three Quality Standards Advisory Committees. These committees help develop evidence-based indicators, designed to drive improvement in health care. Learn more and apply here. D2D at the AFHTO conference: Stay tuned for details about a session geared toward D2D – how it’s capturing the generalist nature of primary care and the importance of relationships, using your data to move to improvement, and the implications for Patients First. Also, if your team participated in D2D, look for a little something special in your registration bags! D2D 4.0 Timeline:
