Control Alabama Department of Public Health
28What is ERTS?
A systematic way of identifying and documenting
linkage to care of initial post-test positive
clients and through further tracking attempt to
locate and connect those not in care to AIDS
Service Organization services
29What Did we Know About Client Referrals
Prior to ERTS?
- Health Department referral process varied greatly
by region - Limited or no data on post-test referral
activity -
- No system to track initial referrals

- Public Health Area 5 has 82 of the area's
clients in care - Public Health Area 6 has 74 of the area's
clients in care - Public Health Area 7 has 68 of the areas
clients in care - Public Health Area 8 has 58 of the areas

clients in care - Public Health Area 11 has 65 of the area's
clients in care - Public Health Areas 4 7 had less to no activity
of tracking as a result of no HIV Coordinator
working in these areas - 66 of Alabama's newly diagnosed cases are
receiving HIV Care throughout the state

40Benefits of the Enhanced Referral Tracking System
(ERTS)
- HIV Coordinator Staff help fill gap to link
clients to care. - Client disposition coding improves tracking.
- Identifies clients not in care and links to
services. - Strengthens working relationships between the HIV
Division, STD Division, AIDS Service
Organizations, Consumers and other agencies. - Provides baseline and benchmark data to improve
performance measures regionally and statewide.

43Ohios Title II Quality Management Plan
- From Paperweight to Useful Tool
..and a few of our other favorite things!
Susan DiCocco, RN Title II Quality Management
Administrator Ohio Department of
Health susan.dicocco_at_odh.ohio.gov
44QM Plan
- HRSAs Quality Management Nine-Step Process
manual used as a guide - The plan seemed lengthy but
- breaking it down into
- sections helped
45QM Plan (continued)
- The body of the plan seemed wordy so developing a
work plan helped to break it down into smaller
activities - Important to continually
- update the plan
46QM Workplan
- Allows the tracking of QM activities and monitors
their progress - Not only data measures but also process measures
such as grant monitoring - Currently in MS Word format
- Goal is to update it quarterly
47(No Transcript)
48EXAMPLE
49Lessons Learned..
- Dont start from scratchuse a template or sample
plan - Assign the development of the plan to a specific
person - Use a format for the work-plan that facilitates
frequent updates by all staff (such as MS Access)
50Next Steps
- Workplan has been useful but a little cumbersome
to update in current format - Next step is to move it to MS Access to allow
for - unlimited queries on any of the
- columns
- Staff can update their own
- activities as they complete
- them

Missouri
- Ryan White All Grantees Meeting
- Washington, DC
- Presented by
- Barbara Boshard, RN, BSN, MS

54Imagine If
- Imagine that the Federal Government mandated that
all Ryan White grantees had to play in the same
sand box! - What are you doing now?
- What changes do you need to make?
55Objectives
- To share the process that Missouri uses to
collaborate across titles - To share Missouris Quality Management Plan (QMP)
- To maximize resources
