Practice Improvement Series Meetings (PRISM)
A Partnership of MaineHealth and the Maine Physician Hospital Organization
Practice Improvement Series Meetings (PRISMs) are held 3 times per year and are focused on improving chronic illness care (i.e. diabetes, CVD, depression, asthma/COPD), as well as offering cross-cutting topics appropriate for both physicians and office staff.
Open to all practices in the Learning Community, they are day-long sessions for practice teams to learn about the Care Model, quality improvement methodologies, and disease specific content. Local, regional and national experts are brought in to deliver education and skills training on the conditions targeted for improvement.
