On October 25, 2007, please join the Indian Health Service (IHS) for our Fifth
quarterly teleconference/web-ex Open Door Forum. This Forum will focus on the
Chronic Care Initiative and 3 of the 14 pilot sites will report on their progress
including the Cherokee Nation, Rapid City Service Unit, and the Indian Health
Council. Acting IHS Director, Robert McSwain will provide an update on the Chronic
Care Initiative as well as Dr. Ty Reidhead on the Innovations in Planned Care
for the Indian Health System. We will share information on measurement and improvement
issues and lessons learned from these 3 programs; Institute for Healthcare Improvement
will also provide a perspective on these collaboratives. Dr. Charlton Wilson
will provide information on the Institute for Healthcare Improvement’s
5 Million Lives Campaign and the Indian Health Service hospital participation.
PowerPoint presentations will be available on the Director’s Health
Initiatives website approximately two weeks prior to the teleconference – please
download the presentations so you can follow along during the teleconference.
There will be time for dialogue at the end of the presentations. A survey monkey
will also be available for feedback after the Forum. Following the call, a transcript
will be available at the Directors’ Initiatives website for those who miss
this event.
After the call, the transcripts and web-ex recordings of previous Open Door
Forums will be available under “What’s New” of the Director’s
Initiatives website. CEUs are a new feature of our fifth Open Door Forum and
will be available for physicians and nurses. We will add other disciplines if
interest supports this option for future forums. CEUs can be obtained by following
