Our latest HMS Collaborative-wide meeting occurred on November 6, 2024, at the UM-Flint Riverfront Conference Center in Flint, Michigan. We started the day with a poster presentation session, allowing sites to highlight their work and foster shared learning. This session showcased 25 posters from various hospitals and health systems. Following the success of the quality improvement workshop during the July Collaborative Wide Meeting, we organized a similar session at this meeting. Participants collaborated according to their Electronic Medical Record(EMR) systems rather than by hospital affiliation. Hospitals exchanged their experiences on how they have utilized their EMR systems in relation to our HMS initiatives. After the workshop, we gathered in the main room to collectively discuss our findings and insights.
We concluded the meeting by breaking out into four different sessions focused on the following:
- Driving Physician Engagement through Value-Based Reimbursement and Other Strategies
- Reducing Sepsis Readmissions
- Enhancing Antimicrobial Stewardship: Leveraging The Electronic Medical Record(EMR) For Quality ImprovementImprovement
- Best Practices in Sepsis Care from ED to Patient Follow-up
