Detailed Project Plan

1. INTRODUCTION

1.1. BackgroundTackling the opioid crisis in Alberta will require new approaches and an immediate response of the entire health system to change its trajectory. The engagement and response of primary care physicians, their teams and Primary Care Networks (PCNs) in Alberta will be essential in defining new primary health care approaches to address the crisis and the systemic issues contributing to the crisis.

The Primary Health Care Opioid Response Initiative (PHC ORI) is a multi-stakeholder project funded by the Alberta Health Minister’s Opioid Emergency Response Commission (MOERC) through a grant agreement with the Alberta College of Family Physicians (ACFP). The ACFP, Alberta Medical Association (AMA), Alberta Health Services (AHS) and Zone PCN Committees are aligned to lead this essential work to focus the primary care response.

The project supports activities aimed at addressing the opioid crisis, including:

Urgent Opioid Response - addressing the urgent needs of those in crisis through the provision of Opioid Agonist Therapy (OAT) and distribution of naloxone kits within primary care settings.

Enhanced Provider Decision Support, Knowledge Translation and Education - ensuring basic knowledge and competencies to support patients with addiction, mental health and pain issues, and changing current practice within primary care clinics and PCNs to better care for individuals using opioids.

Enhanced Opioid Related Service Delivery through PCN Zone Committee Engagement, Planning and Implementation – developing new integrated care models coordinated with partners including AHS addiction and mental health services and community services.

The Zone PCN Committees play an essential role in the primary care response and are accountable for planning, design and implementation of key deliverables within each of Alberta’s five zones. Zone PCN Committees provided letters of intent indicating an intention to participate in the PHC ORI, and using a health service planning approach, developed proposals, outlining their zone-specific strategies to improve opioid care. Each zone was provided one-time funding to “jump start” this work and build coordinated plans to sustain the focus with other service delivery partners.

In addition, as part of responding to Alberta Health’s request for a focus on accelerating local treatment options by September 2018, each zone developed an Urgent Response Action Plan, bringing forward proposed activities for increasing the number of primary care providers trained on and prescribing Opioid Agonist Therapy (OAT). Urgent Response Action Plans were submitted in August 2018 with activities commencing September 2018. Targets for the urgent response include:

Target A - Increase the number of PCN providers trained to prescribe OAT in each zone by 20% per quarter from September 1, 2018 to June 30, 2019

Target B - Increase the number of PCN prescribers of OAT in each zone by 10% per quarter from September 1, 2018 to June 30, 2019

Target C - Increase the number of PCN patients receiving OAT in each zone by 10% per quarter from September 1, 2018 to June 30, 2019

5. PROJECT MANAGEMENT

5.1. Risk ManagementA risk is an event or condition that, if it occurs, could have a positive or negative effect on the project. Risk Management is the process of identifying, assessing, responding to, monitoring and reporting risks.

The table below is the initial risk assessment. The <list position> will monitor, control and report on risks using a Risk Log. High risks will be included in the status reports.

Notes: Risks have been analyzed for exposure and ranked accordingly. Risk exposure is defined as the

product of likelihood the risk will occur (probability) and the magnitude of the consequences of its occurrence (impact).

o Probability (P) can be ranked as 1 to 5:

5 - Almost certain e.g. it is expected to occur in most circumstances

4 - Likely e.g. will probably occur sometime

3 - Possible e.g. might occur at some time

2 - Unlikely e.g. could occur but not very likely

1 - Rare e.g. would only occur under exceptional circumstances

o Impact (I) can be ranked as 1 to 5:

5 - Catastrophic / Crucial - Will almost certainly kill the project/activity

4 - Major - Could threaten the survival of the project/activity as presently defined

3 - Moderate - Will significantly affect project/activity in some manner but not threaten its survival

2 - Minor - Will threaten the efficiency or effectiveness of some aspect of the project, but will be dealt with

1 - Insignificant - Can be dealt with or taken advantage of routinely

o Ranking (P X I) is the Probability multiplied by the Impact

<Applicable risks from the PHC ORI Project Charter have been included below. Augment with the risks from your project. Risks should be “if/then” type statements – if x were to occur, it would have y impact on the project. Scoring information above>

2 If dedicated resources are not recruited or in place by September 2018 to support the urgent response, targets will not be achieved.

3 4 12 Subgrant agreements and funding are targeted to be in place for the Zone PCN Committees by September 2018 to ensure resources can be hired as required.

Secondment or negotiation to release resources to support the urgent response may be required.

3 Prescribing of OAT requires increased attention, time and adjustment of dosage. The current fee for service payment model is not conducive to increasing the number of family physicians who can/will prescribe.

4 3 12 PHC ORI has escalated the issue to the Alberta Health through the AMA Section of General Practice to modify the complex care planning billing code (03.04J) to include OUD. Allocation process for this year has been completed.

Evidence gathered through the PHC ORI evaluation provide evidence on the complexity of patients with OUD for future allocation negotiations.

4 Zone PCN Committees and Opioid Subcommittees/Working Groups are newly formed. Therefore, communication channels and mechanisms within the zones, PCNs and family physician clinics are not fully formed. This may create provincial and Zone PCN Committee communication and support challenges.

3 4 12 Communication will be continual topic for the Zone Collaboration Forums and Zone PCN Committee Working meetings to identify and resolve any communication issues.

Zone dyads, Zone PCN opioid key contacts and zone support teams will be included on all formal communications from the PHC ORI to ensure full distribution of key messages, tools and supports.

Several direct and established communication channels will be used to ensure clear, timely messages reach key stakeholders.

schedule and/or budget, <a Change Request will be completed for review and assessment>.

6 Resources are not available to participate in project activities and complete assignments as per the project schedule.

3 3 9 Review of the upcoming activities and assessments will be completed at status meetings.

If there is a resourcing issue impacting delivery, it will be escalated to the applicable Organizational Lead, and if required, Executive Sponsor, for resolution within their organization.

7 The provincial PCN governance, zone PCN health service planning approach, and PHC ORI zone support process and tools are being developed in parallel. If there is a lack of clarification on the governance and/or a lack of health service planning tools available to the Zone PCN Committees, it may impact delivery of the zone opioid response.

3 3 9 Zone PCN Committees to identify any impacts through the monthly status reports and meetings.

8 The target for increasing the number of patients receiving OAT by 10% per quarter from September 1, 2018 to June 30, 2018 may not be achieved because it is reliant on patients agreeing to the treatment.

3 3 9 By increasing access to treatment and increasing provider knowledge of Opioid Use Disorder, this should provide more opportunities for patients to seek treatment.

Communication Campaign to include key messages on recognizing vulnerable patients to offer OAT.

9 If a patient does not qualify for coverage under the Provincial Healthcare Insurance Plan, the cost to the patient with or without private insurance coverage for OAT may be cost prohibitive.

In addition, generic buprenorphine/ naloxone (SuboxoneTM) has not been available since early 2017.

3 3 9 PHC ORI has escalated the risk to Alberta Health to determine if there are any alternatives for coverage of OAT for patients who are willing to be treated but are unable to afford the cost of the medication.

10 Family physicians do not want to offer OAT as it is perceived to impact a limited number of patients

in their practice. This would impact the ability of the project to meet Target B of increasing the number of PCN providers prescribing OAT in each zone by 10% per quarter.

11 Existing population health data is inadequate to fully determine the most effective deployment of resources.

2 4 8 Regular opioid data reports will be produced by Alberta Health for the zone. When data requests or data requirements are identified, Zone PCN Committees can forward them to the PHC ORI for enhancement of these reports for every zone.

AssumptionsKey assumptions on which the project scope, effort and schedule have been based are as follows <Note: <Applicable assumptions from the PHC ORI Project Charter and additional assumptions have been included below. Augment with the assumptions from your project. Note: Where there are heading bullets, e.g. Communications, include any zone specific assumptions under the section>:

Resources will be available with the capabilities to complete the assigned activities as per the project schedule

The Project Plan is the source of truth for the project scope, deliverables, schedule and budget.

PHC ORI provincial and Zone PCN Committee urgent response action plans will be in place and activities initiated no later than September 1, 2018.

The Zone PCN Committee subgrant agreement is bound by the terms and conditions in the Grant Agreement between Alberta Health and the ACFP.

Urgent Response Action Plans will be submitted and associated funding released by September 1, 2018.

Letters of Intent were an expression of interest by the Zone PCN Committee. Feedback was not provided. Based on gaps in the Letters of Intent, the PHC ORI Proposal Package Guide, Assessment Tool and Toolkit was updated with required definitions and resources to assist the zone in completing a successful proposal.

The Zone PCN Committee Proposal was approved to move to Stage 3: Design, Development and Planning based on meeting the criteria defined in the Assessment Tool.

Page 15

Page 16: Alternate Relationship Plans Evaluation  · Web viewThe purpose of the Project Plan is to define the . Zone PCN Committee primary care opioid response scope and

Detailed Project Plan

The Zone PCN Committee Proposal was not required to be updated based on the assessment feedback. All feedback was addressed in this Detailed Project Plan or the Detailed Two Year Budget.

The Zone PCN Committee Detailed Project Plan and Detailed Two Year Budget will be submitted within three months of execution of the subgrant agreement or by November 30, 2018, whichever date is sooner.

<The Zone PCN Committee will need to update their business plan to identify the opioid response as a priority.>

Partnerships, pathways, processes, resources, education and tools will be sustainable after the PHC ORI.

Zone funding:

o The Secretariat remunerated physicians involved in proposal planning until approval of the Zone PCN Committee Proposal.

o Zone PCN Committee designated <Insert Name> PCN to act as the banker

o Zone PCN Committee will establish process and expectations for the delegation of financial authority related to the grant allocation

o $250,000 was released for Stage 3: Design, Development and Planning upon execution of the subgrant agreement

o If required, additional Year 2 funding will be released upon submission of the Urgent Response Action Plans and/or Detailed Project Plan and Two Year Budget

o Year 3 funding will be released upon acceptance of the January 1, 2019 to March 31, 2019 quarterly subgrant report

o The Zone PCN Committees will use their PCN program policy for remuneration of physicians and teams in opioid response activities (e.g. education)

o The one-time funding is there to support sustainable change for redesign and reallocation of current resources, not to add staff complement

Regular opioid data reports will be provided by the provincial PHC ORI team to monitor progress on targets and objectives. Reports will be received prior to the quarterly reporting deadlines.

Zone PCN Committee implementation success requires:

o Formation of integrated care partnerships (ICPs) with the zone

o There is an understanding from physicians and clinics that there is an urgent need to respond

o Family physicians and teams are willing partners to take the training, start prescribing and meet the targets for increasing OAT

o Telehealth and other methods of technology will be available to provide services and supports to both patients and providers in areas that are geographically remote.

o There is a readiness and desire from all stakeholders for practice change

The Zone PCN Committee will follow the principles and roadmap for engaging individuals with lived experience as outlined in the Engaging Individuals with Lived Experience Framework.

Communications:

o Zone dyads, zone PCN opioid key contacts and zone support teams will be included on all formal communications from the PHC ORI to ensure full distribution of key messages, tools and supports.

o Roles and responsibilities for measures and data collection will be defined in the Evaluation Framework.

o Data collection at the zone PCN level will be supported by the PHC ORI evaluation team.

o Evaluation will collect project lessons learned on a quarterly basis.

o Evaluation will monitor progress towards urgent response targets quarterly, using data from Alberta Health, as well as zone level data collected on OAT provider training participation.

o Data for the measures defined in the Evaluation Framework that are the accountability of the Zone PCN Committee in collaboration with the PCN and member clinics to collect will be provided to the PHC ORI evaluation team at least one month prior to the deadline date for the Interim and Final Evaluation Reports for inclusion in the evaluation reports.

The current training available, e.g. CAMH Suboxone training and AHS ODT online virtual training, will be able to meet the training and educational needs for PCN providers to prescribe OAT until the PHC ORI education, knowledge translation and decision supports are available in early 2019.

Collaborative Mentorship Network:

o The Collaborative Mentorship Network, and associated infrastructure, is funded and coordinated provincially by the ACFP.

o The Collaborative Mentorship Network Pilot will focus on mentorship for the urgent response, OAT and OUD. The full Collective Mentorship Network will focus on chronic pain and addiction.

o The Collaborative Mentorship Network is not one-off advice, training or coaching but a trusted professional relationship between mentor and mentee.

o Mentors are practitioners (GPs and specialists) with pain management and/or addictions focus who are currently engaged in the opioid response work.

o Mentors and mentees will meet informally by phone or email or online forum, and formally through small group, zone based meetings, provincial conferences and online meetings coordinated by the Collaborative Mentorship Network.

Integrated Care Partnerships (ICPs):

o ICPs will be established by the Zone PCN Committees through a compact. A compact is an agreement intended to support groups in coming together to successfully form and sustain ICPs, achieving a collective impact toward addressing a shared issue, problem, concern, and/or opportunity for change.

o ICP development and/or enhancement for the PHC ORI will be supported through regular AHS operational processes and resources.
