2018 Report to the Community REPORT TO THE COMMUNITY CONTENTS LEADERSHIP MESSAGE Leadership Message 1 Patient Care 2 How can we improve more people’s lives? Research 12 This fundamental question drives virtually everything we do at Cedars-Sinai. Community 22 It’s what motivates one of our cancer researchers to drive to her lab on a Sunday morning to check on new results Education 28 from an experimental study. It’s why our pharmacists and nurses now regularly visit nine local skilled-nursing facilities to help coordinate care for patients recently discharged from Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. It’s why The Campaign one of our Heart Institute physicians developed an innovative educational partnership with local barbershops to for Cedars-Sinai 32 reduce high blood pressure among African-American men. The Numbers 38 We know that a key element in improving more people’s lives is increasing access to our care. And we’re doing this Where We Are 40 in myriad ways. Leadership 2017 44 To help meet the growing community demand for Cedars-Sinai services closer to home or work, we now have locations for primary, urgent and specialty care throughout Southern California. We also are affiliating and partnering with other healthcare organizations that share our commitment to excellence. Affordability is an important aspect of accessibility, so we are doing more than ever to increase our operational and clinical efficiency in ways that reduce our costs — and improve quality. In addition, our free and part-pay care for the uninsured, as well as innovative payment models with commercial health plans, helps more people access Cedars-Sinai. Our biomedical research also increases access to the best healthcare, not only for those who receive innovative new treatments at a Cedars-Sinai facility but also for those around the nation and the world whose physicians can better treat them thanks to Cedars-Sinai research findings. Accessibility also requires a robust supply of well-trained physicians, nurses, pharmacists, scientists, technologists and others. We contribute in this area as well, with one of the nation’s most highly regarded education programs, training physicians, nurses and others at all levels. Last but not least is our dedication to community service, which has a growing impact on the lives of the most vulnerable Los Angeles residents. For example, our Community Clinic Initiative is strengthening the leadership and effectiveness of health clinics across Los Angeles that care for more than 750,000 underserved residents. A crucial element of our success in all these efforts is the strong support of our community and the many partnerships that enable us to accomplish so much together. Thank you for sharing our commitment to improving more people’s lives, every day. MARC H. RAPAPORT THOMAS M.

  • VENICE FAMILY CLINIC: Improving Capacity and Managing Patient Lead Times
    CASE STUDY, 4/2012 VENICE FAMILY CLINIC: Improving capacity and managing patient lead times PREPARED BY Professor Kumar Rajaram, UCLA Anderson School of Management Karen Conner, MD, UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine A case by the Johnson & Johnson/UCLA Health Care Executive Program and the UCLA Anderson School of Management Dr. Susan Fleishman, Medical Director at the Venice Family Clinic (VFC) returned to the clinic after her early morning meeting with CEO, Elizabeth Forer. It was a typically warm and sunny Southern California day as she approached the front door of the clinic. She walked past a line of six to eight people waiting to check in at security and then proceeded upstairs to the waiting room. Almost every seat was taken. The room was full of elderly people, homeless men and women, young mothers, babies, toddlers with runny noses, school-aged children watching TV and adult men and women dressed for work. Some clutched papers indicating they had been seen by either registration or a provider, but most were holding only their color-coded cards given to them as they passed through security. As she headed towards the patient rooms, she noticed two resident doctors holding charts and chatting about their upcoming ski trips, one attending physician talking to a medical assistant about lab work and another on the telephone impatiently waiting on hold. A quick walk by the patient rooms showed that despite the crowd in the waiting room, only about half of the rooms had patients in them. She knew that many of the patients seen by the clinic spent hours there each visit, and that most of that time was spent waiting.

We understand that every person leaves a unique legacy and that the greatest tribute is not grief but gratitude for a life well lived. We are privileged to have been entrusted by so many families over the years. This Distinguished Residents Book features the biographies and photos of some of those individuals whose legacies have impacted our lives 2 and helped to shape our culture and our community. It has been created to honor their memory and to inspire generations by their extraordinary accomplishments, tenacity and philanthropy. There are stars whose brightness is visible on earth although they have long burned out. There are people whose brilliance continues to light the world though they are no longer among the living. These lights are particularly bright when the night is dark. They light the way for us all.

  • Empowering Healthy Futures
    EMPOWERING HEALTHY FUTURES FYE 2014 + FYE 2015 ANNUAL REPORT Dear Friends, CEO UPDATE Every day I’m asked, “How has the Affordable Care Act changed things for Venice Family Clinic?” On the surface, the numbers are simple. When I came to Venice Family Clinic in 1995, just 10% of our patients were covered LIZ FORER by insurance. By 2012, this number had increased to 35%. Now, with the unprecedented reforms of the Affordable Care Act, more than 72% of our patients have public or private coverage – a first in Venice Family Clinic’s forty-six year history. Underneath all of this change, the devil is truly in the details. With full implementation of not only the Affordable Care Act, but also electronic medical records, population health management and our work to become a Patient-Centered Medical Home, the time has come for us to examine every detail of how our business of “providing quality health care” operates. Our team enrolled more than 4,000 people for the first time in their lives this year. While there remains a great deal of work and advocacy to be done, this remarkable progress is truly a cause for celebration! In this combined Fiscal Year 2014/2015 Annual Report, you’ll see how targeted investments in quality improvement, renewed focus on data and metrics, and the use of technology are improving access and outcomes for the families and individuals who rely on Venice Family Clinic for care. We are so proud of our Children First Early Head Start parent who started behavioral health counseling and increased 6 out of 7 family outcome scores that are linked to children having success in school.
