  • Ambulatory Practice Module (APM) Outpatient Internal Medicine Family Medicine Community-Based Primary Care
    UNIVERSITY OF IOWA CARVER COLLEGE OF MEDICINE CLINICAL YEARS CORE/REQUIRED CLERKSHIP COURSE DESCRIPTIONS 2017 Ambulatory Practice Module (APM) Outpatient Internal Medicine Family Medicine Community-Based Primary Care Inpatient Internal Medicine Pediatrics Obstetrics & Gynecology Surgery Neurology (4) Psychiatry (4) Selectives Anesthesia (2) Dermatology (2) Ophthalmology (2) Orthopaedics (2) Otolaryngology (2) Radiology (2) Urology (2) 1 AMBULATORY PRACTICE MODULE Description: The Ambulatory Practice Module is a collaboration among three clerkships—Outpatient Internal Medicine, Family Medicine and Community-Based Primary Care. These three clerkships cooperate in selection and presentation of curriculum while maintaining separate 4-week clinical experiences. Formal curriculum is developed by faculty in all the disciplines and presented as a coordinated unit. The beginning and end of each of the clinical clerkships consists of Education Days involving all students taking the module. Students will also participate in local case-based learning sessions held at clerkship sites throughout the 12-week period. All students take Outpatient Internal Medicine in either Iowa City or Des Moines. Family Medicine and Community-Based Primary Care are located in sites away from Iowa City. While the three clerkships are grouped together in the 12-week module, each clerkship gives a separate final grade. Outpatient Internal Medicine and Family Medicine require a final examination. The Community- Based Primary Care Clerkship requires completion of a community health project. All three require participation in the APM PBA. Goals of the Module: Each clerkship develops its own specific objectives, but the goals of the collaboration include: • The student will review common procedures and skills used in primary care practices.

  • Educational Goals & Objectives the Ambulatory Medicine Rotation Will
    Educational Goals & Objectives The Ambulatory Medicine rotation will provide the resident with an opportunity to become skilled in the prevention, evaluation and management of acute and chronic medical conditions commonly seen in the outpatient setting. Residents will rotate through their Ambulatory Clinic, spending increasing amounts of time throughout their 3 years in the program. They will grow their own patient panel, with patients ranging from newborns through geriatrics. The focus will be on the doctor-patient relationship, continuity of care, and the effective delivery of primary care. Residents will gain exposure to a broad spectrum of medical conditions, ranging from core internal medicine issues to conditions requiring knowledge of allergy and immunology, nutrition, obstetrics and gynecology, ophthalmology, orthopedics, otolaryngology, preventative medicine, and psychiatry as they pertain to the general care of their outpatients in the community. This exposure will complement directed subspecialty-based experiences on other rotations. They will also learn about billing and coding, insurance coverage, Patient Centered Medical Home, and other concepts pertinent to systems-based practice in the outpatient setting. Faculty will facilitate learning in the 6 core competencies as follows: Patient Care and Procedural Skills I. All residents must be able to provide compassionate, culturally-sensitive care for their clinic patients. R2s should seek directed and appropriate specialty consultation when necessary to further patient care. R3s should be able to coordinate input from multiple consultants and manage conflicting recommendations. II. All residents will demonstrate the ability to take a complete medical history and incorporate information from the electronic medical record. R1s should be able to differentiate between stable and unstable symptoms and elicit risk factors for the development of chronic disease.

  • Integrating Palliative Care with Chronic Disease Management in Ambulatory Care
    Evidence-based Practice Center Mixed Methods Review Protocol Project Title: Mixed Methods Review - Integrating Palliative Care with Chronic Disease Management in Ambulatory Care I. Background and Objectives for the Mixed Methods Review Background Most care for patients with serious life-threatening chronic illness or conditions occurs in ambulatory settings. Care for these patients can be complex, as they often face high symptom burden and decreased quality of life. Research has shown that patients and caregivers appreciate the integration of serious illness care into primary care.1, 2 Palliative care is defined as “care, services, or programs for patients with serious life-threatening illness and their caregivers, with the primary intent of relieving suffering and improving health-related quality of life, including dimensions of physical, psychological/ emotional, social, and spiritual well-being”.3 Importantly, palliative care approaches are not based on prognosis and can be beneficial throughout the course of serious illness, not just at the end of life. Populations with serious life-threatening chronic illness of key interest for palliative care include, but are not limited to, those with advanced heart failure (New York Heart Association (NYHA) class III or IV), advanced chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) criteria III or IV), end- stage renal disease (on dialysis or choosing not to have dialysis and age 75 or older), and those with frailty or multiple serious chronic conditions.4 Cancer is also a key area of interest for palliative care, but given the large existing research base and existing systematic reviews about integrating palliative care into ambulatory oncology, this review will focus on other illnesses and conditions where more insights are needed.

  • Classification of Health Care Providers (ICHA-HP)
    A System of Health Accounts 2011 © OECD, European Union, World Health Organization PART I Chapter 6 Classification of Health Care Providers (ICHA-HP) 121 I.6. CLASSIFICATION OF HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS (ICHA-HP) Introduction Health care providers encompass organisations and actors that deliver health care goods and services as their primary activity, as well as those for which health care provision is only one among a number of activities. They vary in their legal, accounting, organisational and operating structures. However, despite the huge differences that exist in the way health care provision is organised, there is a set of common approaches and technologies that all health care systems share and that helps to structure them. The classification of health care providers (ICHA-HP) therefore serves the purpose of classifying all organisations that contribute to the provision of health care goods and services, by arranging country-specific provider units into common, internationally applicable categories. The principal activity exercised is the basic criterion for classifying health care providers. This does not mean, however, that providers classified under the same category perform exactly the same set of activities. Hospitals, which are major health care providers, usually offer not only inpatient health care services, but, depending on specific country arrangements, may also provide outpatient care, rehabilitation, long-term care services and so on. For the purpose of international comparisons, the value added of the ICHA-HP classification lies in two advantages: first, its connection with the functional classification, which gives an insight into the variety of country-specific settings for the provision of health care services, and second, its combination with the financing classification, which sheds light on the variety of health care funding mechanisms that exist across countries.

  • Ambulatory Care Pharmacy
    1 Ambulatory Care Pharmacy Background Ambulatory care pharmacy is a fairly new focus for pharmacists. In June 2007, the Board of Pharmacy Specialties (BPS) received the Report of the Role Delineation Study of Ambulatory Care Pharmacists, which delineated five domains of practice including: Direct Patient Care, Practice Management, Public Health, Medical Informatics and Professional Development, and Patient Advocacy. BPS now offers the opportunity for pharmacists to become certified in this field. The BPS website provides the following description of ambulatory care pharmacy: Ambulatory care pharmacy practice is the provision of integrated, accessible health care services by pharmacists who are accountable for addressing medication needs, developing sustained partnerships with patients, and practicing in the context of family and community. This is accomplished through direct patient care and medication management for ambulatory patients, long-term relationships, coordination of care, patient advocacy, wellness and health promotion, triage and referral, and patient education and self-management. The ambulatory care pharmacists may work in both an institutional and community-based clinic involved in direct care of a diverse patient population. Ambulatory care pharmacists work in a variety of environments in both hospital and community-based settings. Each site has its own unique practice style and may focus on primary care or focus on one specific disease state. Characteristics Eighty-three ambulatory care pharmacists responded to the 2012 APhA Career Pathway Evaluation Program survey. Twenty-three percent of respondents held an entry-level pharmacy degree; 79% held the PharmD degree. Eleven percent indicated that they also had a non-pharmacy bachelor’s degree and 10% indicated an advanced degree (MA, MS, MBS, PhD, or other).
