Moderator: Tom Marquardt, DPM, Winneshiek Medical Center

8:30 am     Introduction to the Iowa Academy of Family Physicians  
Pam Williams, Executive Vice President, Iowa Academy of Family Physicians, Des Moines

9:00 am     Building Your QI Foundation: How to Craft a Problem Statement  
Charles Derus, MD, MM, Interstate Postgraduate Medical Association, Madison, Wisconsin

Have you ever wondered if everybody in the room is working on the same problem you’re working on? Asking “What problem are you trying to solve?” often elicits widely different answers. A well-crafted problem statement is the solid foundation needed to support a sound quality improvement effort.

  • Express a concise problem statement.
  • Translate the problem statement into the subsequent steps in the quality improvement process.
  • Illustrate how to collect subjective data.

10:30 am     Negotiations and Conflict Management   
Azeemuddin Ahmed, MD, MBA, Clinical Professor and Executive Vice Chair, Department of Emergency Medicine, University of Iowa, Iowa City

To be an effective health care leader, one must have a robust repertoire of negotiation and communication skills. Regardless of context, leaders often have formal responsibility for negotiating agreements with other firms or constituencies, must compete with colleagues for scarce organizational resources and resolve disputes among colleagues. The purpose of this session is to facilitate the basic understanding of the theories and processes of negotiation and conflict management.

  • Identify sources of team conflict.
  • Distinguish among the five negotiation and conflict-management styles.
  • Understand the common underlying principles of the conflict-management model.

12:00 pm     Lunch

1:00 pm     Data and Decision-Making  
John Richardson, Director, Inpatient/Outpatient and Data Analytics, IHA, Des Moines

Health care practitioners use patient data daily to make decisions. This session will help providers use data for informed decision-making and improve the patient care environment. Following the session, participants will have the knowledge to face the challenges of data analytics in health care operations.

  • Describe the importance of data analytics in decision-making across the organization.
  • Develop future analytic strategies and provide resources to strengthen patient care.
  • Examine ways to use the benefits of information technology, quality and analytics in an organization.

2:00 pm     Adjourn
