"Helpful as practices explore TBC, this tool helps identify key functions needed to support patients and determine how the team can best fulfil these."
"The initiative provides the opportunity for Divisions and their CSC partners to engage the services of Ron Lindstrom & Adam King to understand, evaluate and improve the quality and strength of relationships toward successful PCNs and other ongoing collaborative work. This document provides information on the initiative, and also has the steps to take to request services from both consultants."

"The Team-Based Care Readiness tool determines if support is needed prior to team-based care implementation to support a team’s success in moving forward with implementation. The readiness tool is meant to guide a conversation with a clinic and is intended to be used with a coach to support the discussion and identify areas for potential support."

"This document examines the financial impact of the work environment of a Nurse Practitioner (NP) on Vancouver Coastal Health’s (VCH) budget. It evaluates the cost effectiveness of having the NP work from a General Practitioners (GP) clinic compared to the community healthcare clinic in the hospital. NPs are working in many different primary care areas, as a specialist or as generalist in a primary care setting. Compared to physicians, patient satisfaction and quality of care have been equal or higher than care provided by physicians. NPs are effective in the reduction of patient unattachment and reduction of emergency department (ED) visits. Although NPs take often more consultation time and sometimes conduct more preventative actions, their work can be comparable or even more effective compared to other providers.
This study hypothesized that the NP’s direct patient time and accessibility increases in the GP clinic, leading to a reduction of ED cost. ED and hospitalization cost of NP patients one year prior to attachment is compared with one year after attachment. Cost effectiveness is calculated by deducting incremental work environment cost by avoided ED and hospitalization cost."
