"Prior to changing to a virtual Summit, all Divisions were asked to share their stories, projects, innovations, and learnings to be included in a set of rotating slides that would run throughout the event. This is the end result of what was submitted but unfortunately not showcased as the in-person event was cancelled."

"These most significant change (MSC) stories take readers on a journey toward understanding how patient medical homes are removing barriers to care around the province. This story is about how the PMH initiative drove diverse work - care in high schools, working with the First Nation, and improved coordination with Child and Youth Mental Health."

"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."
