Project Notes/Comments:

Okay to adjust category if it seems like there is a better fit for it-- this plays a role in all of these domains

Does the work incorporate equity?

Residents often care for a larger proportion of outpatients from underserved backgrounds with higher levels of psychosocial vulnerability. Resident patients are less likely to achieve chronic disease and preventive screening outcome measures and have higher rates of ER visits and hospitalizations. We hope this initial project will have downstream effects to improve outcomes.

Does this work address any of the UChicago Medicine quality priorities as listed on the Clinical Excellence Scorecard?

Ambulatory Access to Care, Patient Experience, Diabetes Management, Cancer Screening
