TBC Concept Resource (webinar #1 and #2)
Principle
 Patients want to receive their care from smaller teams (PODS) and know them personally
Physical
 Wall colors differentiate pods in practice , match business cards
 Central open area surrounded by exam rooms
 Co location of pod members, all carry laptops
 3 exam rooms per provider – all care comes to patient
 2 pods share procedure room - standardized
TBC Structure
 Break down large systems into PODS (care teams)
 4 “Empaneled” Providers (3FTEs), 3 MAs dedicated to provider (dyad)
 1 BH, 1 RN, 1 Case Coordinator (navigator, health coach), 1 front desk,
 Patient empaneled both to a pod and to a Dyad
 Flow Coordinator and Team Manager rotating roles (RN, MA)
 Medical Records staff – input electronic data
Roles and Responsibilities
 Defining and Training, Standing Orders and Protocols
Standardizing Workflows
• Making ‘hundreds’ accessible to all
Teams Need to Meet
• Daily Huddles : 8am and 2pm
• Weekly Meetings : Improvement Work, Population Health Management

47

Poll Question
Would you say that you have ‘significant’ work to do
defining your “core” and “extended” team structure?
Yes
No

48

Role Activity Assessment
Who Does What Now?
4:08

 Eliminate duplication or unnecessary work
 Reduce interruptions
 Challenge assumptions about what staff are doing
 Increase capacity to take on new activities
 Develop specific aims for improvement
