Effects of 2 forms of practice facilitation on cardiovascular prevention in primary care: a practice-randomized, comparative effectiveness trial.
Effective quality improvement (QI) strategies are needed for small practices. The objective of this study was to compare practice facilitation implementing point-of-care (POC) QI strategies alone versus facilitation implementing point-of-care plus population management (POC+PM) strategies on preventive cardiovascular care. The investigators concluded that facilitator-led QI promoting population management approaches plus POC improvement strategies was not clearly superior to POC strategies alone.

A comparison of health plan- and provider-delivered chronic care management models on patient clinical outcomes.
Two contrasting strategies of chronic care management include provider-delivered care management (PDCM) and health plan-delivered care management (HPDCM). The researchers aimed to compare the effectiveness of PDCM vs. HPDCM on improving clinical outcomes for patients with chronic diseases. They found that in a commercially insured population, neither PDCM nor HPDCM resulted in substantial improvement in patients' clinical indicators in the first year.
