H3 works with small practices on quality improvement strategies for cardiovascular care.

What to Expect

We hope participating practices will fully engage in the H3 quality improvement work. Providers will also be responsible for a small handful of tasks, such as taking surveys and helping to arrange for data collection. In turn, facilitators are committed to providing high-value support and resources. And most importantly, as researchers we take seriously our duty to protect your clinical data.

From H3, You Will Receive

Tools, processes and conduct that follow HIPAA guidelines when collecting and analyzing clinical data
Facilitators that provide high-quality, timely support.
Coaching that is sensitive to the needs of your practice and your patients
Up-to-date, evidence-based education on quality improvement and pay-for-performance programs related to cardiovascular outcomes

Ask their providers and relevant clinical staff to complete surveys at baseline, 12 months and 18 months. The baseline meeting will take 1 hour, and surveys will take approximately 30 minutes to complete
Schedule time for coaching
Work with H3 to establish a safe, secure method for collecting data (likely the popHealth tool). We hope this will not burden staff, but if it does, reimbursement dollars are available
