Outcomes by Facilitator Effectiveness and Practice Baseline Change Capacity
| Outcome | More Effective Facilitator | Less Effective Facilitator | All | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| High Capacity | Low Capacity | High Capacity | Low Capacity | ||
| Change in percentage of patients meeting ABS measurea | |||||
| Aspirin, mean (SD) % | 10 (22) | 6 (16) | 0 (10) | 1 (10) | 4 (16) |
| Blood pressure, mean (SD) % | 4 (14) | 2 (14) | 2 (9) | 2 (13) | 2 (13) |
| Smoking, mean (SD) % | 11 (17) | 9 (22) | 1 (14) | 0 (11) | 6 (18) |
| Change in CPCQ score, mean (SD) pointsb | −2.7 (9.8) | 17.8 (13.9) | −3.1 (9.5) | 11.7 (10.6) | 5.9 (14.5) |
ABS = aspirin use for high-risk patients, blood pressure control, smoking cessation counseling; CMS = Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services; CPCQ = Change Process Capability Questionnaire.
Notes: See Table 1 footnotes for definitions of more and less effective facilitators. See Figure 1 footnotes for definitions of practice baseline change capacity.
↵a Absolute difference between percentage of patients meeting metric at follow-up and at baseline. Theoretical range: −100% (practice went from all eligible patients meeting CMS performance measure at baseline to none at follow-up) to 100% (practice went from no eligible patients meeting CMS performance measure at baseline to all at follow-up).
↵b Difference between score at follow-up and at baseline. Theoretical range following above logic: −56 (practice went from highest to lowest change capacity) to 56 (practice went from lowest to highest change capacity).
