2015 Trauma-Informed Care in Action

Trauma informed care suggests that things that have happened to us earlier in our lives can have impact to medical and psychological care later in our lives. This makes sense and with obstacles such as accurate and accessible health care records - one can only imagine the challenges.'

Might the same be true for workplace performance? Might a previous work situation with a poor manager (boss) impact our relationship with our current boss? How can leadership training address this potential? What obstacles might exist?

Do we have a choice within the workplace besides ignoring this potential and hoping for the best?W

What solutions have you seen to help future performance without risk? Is risk necessary? Worth it?

2016 First Medicare, Now Pennsylvania Medicaid

"The state is now negotiating three-year contracts with the new MCOs that will require them to increase the percentage of value-based or outcome-based contracts they hold with provider organizations, hospitals, and physicians. Value-based contracts will need to make up a minimum 30% of DHS funding received by MCOs and passed on to provider organizations for medical reimbursements."

This phased approach makes sense. Would a corporate learning department be willing to set a similar phased approach towards external providers willing to be accountable for outcomes?

Would an external provider be willing to provide an option for "accountability?"

2018 Medicare To Launch Value-Based Purchasing For Skilled Nursing Facilities Starting October 1, 2018

"The VBP measure focuses on improvement in all-cause 30-day hospital readmission rates,"

How often do we see improvements in performance within 30 days of being trained? Is it sustained beyond 30 days?

Would shorter more frequent training be practical? How can measurement be done cost-effectively? Must it be unobtrusive? Might it be more accurate/effective if done obtrusively?
