Key Learnings We are improving our care We are just short of 90% optimal care Spirometry rates are improving We have yet to see a meaningful impact on patient outcomes, but expect to see this by December
Barriers and Successes Staff buy-in – has improved, but still with some resistance Time In spite of the barriers, our care continues to improve.
Future Plans Registry after EPIC is implemented We will be leaning heavily on our EPIC-literate colleagues in the next several months
