- Description

"Richmond is comprised of many smaller, unique neighbourhoods, each with distinct socioeconomic, cultural, language and healthcare needs. The Richmond Division’s Neighborhood Networks strategy saw the creation of geographically clustered GPs. The Division began to trial a more systematic approach to coordinated multidisciplinary care, patient attachment, physician recruitment, peer support and practice coverage. This paper is part of a series that highlights their processes and learnings specifically on their integration of Allied Health Professionals."

"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."
