MyVA Access: An Evaluation of Changes in Access for a System-Wide Program Implemented in the Veterans Health Administration.
American Journal of Medical Quality : the Official Journal of the American College of Medical Quality 2018 December 11
The current study evaluates changes in access as a result of the MyVA Access program-a system-wide effort to improve patient access in the Veterans Health Administration. Data on 20 different measures were collected, and changes were analyzed using t tests and Chow tests. Additionally, organizational health-how able a system is to create health care practice change-was evaluated for a sample of medical centers (n = 36) via phone interviews and surveys conducted with facility staff and technical assistance providers. An organizational health variable was created and correlated with the access measures. Results showed that, nationally, average wait times for urgent consults, new patient wait times for mental health and specialty care, and slot utilization for primary and specialty care patients improved. Patient satisfaction measures also improved, and patient complaints decreased. Better organizational health was associated with improvements in patient access.
