This report continues our commitment to the Triple Aim of improving health, experience and cost and the transparent reporting of meaningful measures that refl ect the quality of care delivered to our members and patients by our community of providers. During the years this report has been distributed, we have seen consecutive year-over-year improvement in quality measures due to the impressive work by provider groups focused on quality and eff ectiveness of care. However, there is still much work to be done. Your partnership and commitment to achieving the Triple Aim in the everyday care of your patients has a signifi cant impact on our members, their families and our communities. The goal of these measures is to align with and support eff orts that are important to our community and the overall health of the population. This year we have removed several measures that were either retired or are made public- ly available through other organizations we collaborate with including Minnesota Community Measurement and the Healthcare Eff ectiveness Data and Information Set. The Clinical Indicators may be combined with other local and national sources to create a broad list of quality measures that refl ect better care for our members and patients and improved outcomes for the populations we serve.

  • Achieving High-Performance Health Care Through Rural Innovation and Cooperation
    THE COMMONWEALTH FUND COMMISSION ON A HIGH PERFORMANCE HEALTH SYSTEM THE NORTH DAKOTA EXPERIENCE: ACHIEVING HIGH-PERFORMANCE HEALTH CARE THROUGH RURAL INNOVATION AND COOPERATION Douglas McCarthy, Rachel Nuzum, Stephanie Mika, Jennifer Wrenn, and Mary Wakefield May 2008 ABSTRACT: Resource constraints and the desire to preserve the local economy have made necessity the mother of invention in North Dakota, driving health care providers and policymakers to try new approaches to care and to institute better practices relatively quickly. Collaboration to support primary care and the concept of a medical home, organization of care through cooperative networks of providers, and innovative use of technology to meet patient needs and hold down costs are examples of how North Dakota is able to provide its citizens with accessible, quality, and efficient health care despite the challenges of a rural setting. Rural communities have a unique context of community trust and interdependence, a social capital that allows them to innovate in meeting patients’ needs. A strong sense of mission, vigilance to process and outcomes, and enhanced communication and collaboration among health care providers are key to improvements made in North Dakota health care.

Step 6 | Planning for Action and Monitoring Progress Attachment One: Community Health Assessment June 2016 Attachment Two: Preliminary Community Asset Inventory Introduction The 2016 Community Health Assessment was a joint effort led by Altru Health System and the Grand Forks Public Health Department. Our two organizations have a history of collaboration to improve community health. Together, we engaged multiple partners to conduct the assessment, which provides information on health issues, status, and needs and identifies areas for improvement. This report will be used by health care providers, public health officials, policy makers, area organizations, community groups and individuals who are interested in improving the health status of the community. The results of our data analysis, focus groups and surveys enable organizations to strategically establish areas of focus, develop intervention, and commit resources. Altru Health System Altru Health System is a community-owned, integrated system with an acute care hospital, a rehabilitation hospital, more than a dozen clinics in Grand Forks and the region, and large home care and outreach therapy networks. We employ more than 200 physicians and over 4,000 staff. We serve the approximately 220,000 residents of a 17-county region as shown in the map below. The passage of the Affordable Care Act in 2010 requires not-for-profit hospitals to conduct a community health assessment every three years.
