Introduction
The Citrus County Community Health Improvement Plan 2013 (CHIP) was initiated by the Citrus Memorial Hospital and the Citrus County Hospital Board, and developed through planning efforts coordinated by WellFlorida Council, Inc. The development of the CHIP 2013 Update was based on the Citrus County Hospital Boards’ 2013 Community Health Assessment. These efforts were undertaken by the hospital to meet their not-for-profit IRS requirements in partnership with many others, including the DOH in Citrus County and the George A. Dame Community Health Center.
The Florida Department of Health in Citrus County contracted with WellFlorida Council, Inc. to develop and provide an updated Community Health Assessment (CHA). The new CHA was received in December 2015 and revisions accepted on January 7, 2016.
The DOH in Citrus County held a community engagement meeting to review the status of the current CHIP document and advise on the procedures to develop a new CHIP on February 24, 2016. As a result of this meeting, the Citrus Community Health Improvement Partnership was created to develop the goals, objectives and strategies to be based on the findings of the CHA. The four key areas for improvement that have been identified for development are:
Access to Health Care Mental Health and Substance Abuse Healthiest Weight Availability of Healthy Foods
The CHIP Partnership continues to hold monthly meetings to review the findings of the four Sub-Committees as they work to develop the new CHIP. The revised timeline for completion of this document is February 2017.
4 CHIP Annual Review Report, 2016
Overview of the Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP)
The following represents our findings of the 2013 CHIP and activities that the Department of Health in Citrus County has taken to date.
STRATEGIC ISSUE AREA GOAL
Lack of awareness by the general public on what health services are out there, how to use the services and when to use the services and the individual benefits of the services.
1. Increase the awareness of the availability
of health services in Citrus County and how and when to use them.
Residents are using the emergency room inappropriately for primary care because either they do not know how and when to appropriately utilize primary care and many times they cannot get to their primary care provider when they are sick.
1. Increase the appropriate use of healthcare.
Citrus County lacks primary care capacity for the underserved population; OB/GYN services capacity for nearly all segments of the population; mental health care for nearly all segments of the population; and dental care for the Medicaid population and underserved especially. Drug use and related co-morbidities are high in Citrus County
1. Expand the capacity of key area health providers for designated target populations.
Lack of standardized post-discharge care is fueling avoidable hospital re-admissions for readily manageable issues.
1. Create a culture of standardized post-discharge from hospital care in order to reduce avoidable hospital re-admissions for readily manageable issues.
The local public health system in Citrus County lacks a forum to collectively address and overcome pressing community healthcare, health system and health outcomes.
1. Enhance partnerships to address community health issues.
5 CHIP Annual Review Report, 2016
Summary of CHIP Annual Review Meeting
The DOH in Citrus County staff recognizes that many of the goals, objectives and strategies cited in the document do not clearly identify efforts that the local health department is able to undertake. Many of the activities identified in the 2013 CHIP are more clearly aligned to activities that the hospital(s) are better equipped to address. The DOH in Citrus County has taken appropriate steps to address those that provided a measure of positive action on our part.
Strategic Issue Area #1: Lack of awareness by the general public on what health services are out there, how to use the services, when to use the services and the individual benefits of the services.
Based on discussion, it was determined that the general public did not have a clear understanding of what healthcare services were available and how to make the best use of those services. It appears that the discussions identified the use of emergency rooms for symptoms that could better be handled through their private physician and/or clinics. It was determined that the use of a survey to obtain a baseline and to continue use to educate and track improvements would be would be the best manner in which to address this problem.
The creation of a database, a targeted recruiting list, marketing and/or outreach campaigns to be conducted were among the performance measures identified to meet this goal. In addition, was determined that emergency rooms would be the primary location to educate the public on the existing resources and their best use.
Goal: Increase the awareness of the availability of health services in Citrus County and how and when to use them.
Strategy 1.A: Enhance the currently available major community health information and referral resource (e.g. 211) by ensuring that existing resources information is being regularly updated by community health services providers and increase community awareness (for both consumers and providers) of these major existing community health information referral and resources.
Key Partners: The partners identified in the CHIP to lead this effort are: United Way of Citrus County, 211 Provider, community health service providers; proposed Health Improvement Partnership; media, marketing organizations.
Strategy 1.B: Use hospital emergency departments to inform and educate about existing resources on how and when to best use them.
Key Partners: Hospitals; George A. Dame Community Health Center; Citrus County Health Department; health and dental clinics care and providers; Citrus County Hospital Board.
Strategy 1.C: Create a Citrus County mobile phone application that provides instantaneous
6 CHIP Annual Review Report, 2016
Information on health services availability and is tied into location services for navigation assistance.
Key Partners: Hospitals; George A. Dame Community Health Center; Citrus County Health Department; health and dental care clinics and individual providers; Citrus County Hospital Board; Citrus County Medical Society or equivalent physician organizations; United Way of Citrus County; IT professionals for deve3lopment or University of Florida or University of South Florida graduate students in IT or Engineering.
In April 2014, the DOH-Citrus created the Community Health Section, which in large part, has undertaken to expand our community partnerships and to provide a broad base of educational opportunities for education of our clients, partners and the public at large.
Since the approval of our updated Community Health Assessment (CHA) in January 2016, no new surveys have been prepared. It is our intention to develop online surveys for both customer satisfaction and program reviews or suggestions.
During FY 2015-2016 the Community Health Section participated in 46 outreach events with our partners that reached an estimated 36,570 persons. The overall number of outreach events was reduced this reporting period due to changes in the decision process when determining which community events provide a benefit to the DOH – Citrus programming, e.g. Healthiest Weight and Tobacco Free Florida programs, and our vision.
7 CHIP Annual Review Report, 2016
Why this is important to our community:
It is important that the public be aware of what resources are available to meet their needs, so that they will make better use of available services.

Strategic Issue Area #2: Residents are using the emergency room inappropriately for primary care because either they do not know how and when to appropriately utilize primary care and many times they cannot get to their primary care provider when they are sick.
Goal: Increase the appropriate use of healthcare.
Strategy 2.A: (Replication of Strategy 1.A) Enhance the currently available major community health information and referral resource (e.g. 211) by ensuring that existing resource information is being regularly updated by community health service providers and increase community awareness for both consumers and providers of these major existing community health information referral and resources.

Strategy 2.B: Create a newly emerging “Community Paramedic Program” to enhance access for residents with substantial barriers and to help get them in appropriate care settings.
Key Partners: The following key partners are listed in the CHIP. EMS; local government; state government (policy changes); law enforcement; hospitals; George A. Dame Community Health Center; health and dental care clinics and individual providers.
Why this is important to our community:
It is important that the public be aware of what resources are available to meet their medical needs, so that they will make better use of services.

Strategic Issue Area #3: Citrus County lacks primary care capacity for the underserved population; OB/GYN services capacity for nearly all segments of the population; mental health care for nearly all segments of the population; and dental care for the Medicaid population and underserved especially. Drug use and related co-morbidities are high in Citrus County. Citrus County’s economy yields lower income and economic compared to Florida as a whole which translates in less disposable income to invest in healthcare and thus less access to care which results in lower health outcomes.
Goal: Expand the capacity of key health providers for designated target populations.
Strategy 3A: Enhance participation in the Citrus County We Care Program.
Key Partners: The following key partners are listed in the CHIP. Citrus County Medical Society; Citrus County Health Department; Hospitals; George A Dame Community Health Centre; Health and Dental Care Clinics and Individual Providers (especially specialists).
There has been an ongoing overall decline in the We Care program during FY 2015 – 2016. This is due in large part due to the continued lack of diagnostics being provided so that the participating providers can take the cases. Historically, one of our local hospitals participated and provided the needed diagnostics for the clients. Both local hospitals are now for profit and not currently participating in the program. In addition, the DOH-Citrus staff that has been handling the program was doing so on a part time basis, with the bulk of their other duties contributed to the Tobacco Free Florida program.
Strategy 3B: Form a partnership to market and promote, in an integrated manner, Citrus County as a destination for physicians and providers.
Key Partners: The following key partners are listed in the CHIP. Local government; Businesses; Chamber of Commerce; George A. Dame Community Health Center; Citrus County Health Department; Local physicians; Local dentists.
Why this is important to our community:
The We Care Program serves the uninsured population by coordinating specific care needs with volunteer physicians.

The CHD has limited ability to increase the number of licensed physicians; requires broad based coordination by the local hospitals, local governing bodies, the local Economic Development Council, etc. The current level is a decrease from 186.1 per 100,000 in 2013. The number of We Care Providers decreased again during FY 2015-2016 to a total of 25 providers. The Value of Services decreased by $162,798 during FY 2015-2016 to a total of $18,734.00. The number of clients was reduced by 39 during FY 2015-2016 to a total of 75. The CHD has limited ability to increase the number of licensed physicians;

requires broad based coordination by the local hospitals, local governing bodies, the local Economic Development Council, etc. The current level represents an increase from 19.4%, (2010 Florida CHARTS)
Strategic Issue Area #4: Lack of standardized post-discharge care is fueling avoidable hospital re-admissions for readily manageable issues.
Goal: Create a culture of standardized post-discharge from hospital care in order to reduce avoidable hospital re-admissions for readily manageable issues.
Strategy 4A: Create a county-wide “Community Re-Admission Council” to study the magnitude of the re-admission issue in the identified areas and to propose and implement community-wide solutions to reducing re-admission rates in these areas.
Key Partners: The key partners listed in the CHIP are as follows – Hospitals; home health agencies and other community-based post-discharge health services; nursing homes; rehabilitation facilities; family caregivers.
Why this is important to our community:
Standardized post-discharge care is important to minimize the re-admission of patients for the same and/or similar complaints, this may result in more patients being able to recover fully at home where they are more comfortable.
Objective Indicator Current Level
Target Status Explanation of Status

* Community-wide policies, procedures and protocols are developed and implemented; *Percentage of facilities complying with these protocols; *Reduced numbers of re-admissions in these conditions.
The local CHD does not track re-admission rates; this information would come from the local hospitals; no information provided.
Strategic Issue Area #5: The local public health system in Citrus County lacks a forum to collectively address and overcome pressing community healthcare, health system and health outcomes.
Goal: Enhance partnerships to address community health issues.
Strategy 5A: Create a private sector, volunteer Citrus County Health Improvement Partnership in order to “shepherd” or “oversee” implementation of the CHIPL and regular and ongoing community health assessment activities.
Key Partners: The key partners identified in the CHIP are as follows: Emergency Medical Services, faith-based groups, businesses; schools; private physicians; local government; United Way of Citrus County; Chamber of Commerce; Citrus County Hospital Board; law enforcement; George A. Dame Community Health Center; Citrus County Medical Society.
During this reporting period, the DOH-Citrus has enhanced the partnerships that we currently work with. Our broad based partnership, the Citrus Health Improvement Partnership is currently meeting monthly for the development of our new CHIP document using MAPP guidelines. In addition to these monthly meetings, the sub-committees are meeting separately to address the 4 areas for improvement identified in our CHA dated January 2016 and reporting back to the full Partnership monthly.
In addition, the George A. Dame Community Health Center grant has expired during this reporting period
Why this is important to our community:
Partnerships ae the key to education of the public as well as providing the ability to review the CHIP, CHA and Strategic Plan with real world community-wide input, recommendations and pooling of resources.

Revisions
The CHIP was received in 2013 as developed by WellFlorida Council, Inc. for the local hospital to meet their non-profit IRS requirements. As a result, many of the objectives are more directly related to hospital functions than to the local health department and community-wide needs.
During this reporting period, there have been no revisions to the 2013 CHIP. However, the DOH-Citrus received an updated Community Health Assessment (CHA) and approved same with the revised date of January 7, 2016. Since that time, the DOH – Citrus Steering Committee has held several meetings first as the Citrus Community Health Advisory Partnership (C-CHAP), and changed their name to the Citrus Health Advisory Partnership in April 2016 with DOH-Citrus facilitating the process. Their Charter was approved on June 2, 2016. The Partnership has continued to meet monthly with the charge to develop the Community Health Improvement Plan using sub-committees to develop the goals and objectives for each of the 4 areas of improvement as identified in the Community Health Assessment using the MAPP guidelines.
Accomplishments
Goal Objective Accomplishment 1. Increase the
Awareness of the availability of health services in Citrus County and how and when to use them.
1.1 By December 31, 2015, 90% of a representative random sample of Citrus County residents will score at least 75% on a resource awareness and appropriateness of utilization survey. (Baseline: None. First survey of its kind in Citrus County)
During FY 2015-2016, the Community Health Section has participated in 46 community outreach events that reached approximately 36,570 citizens and visitors. While this number is lower than the previous FY, the decision process to determine the benefits of participating in an outreach event in relation to our programming and vision has changed to ensure that there is a positive CHD benefit. e.g. Healthiest Weight and Tobacco Free Florida programs. This section includes the staff of the following programs: Tobacco Free Florida, We Care, Healthy Start/Mom Care, Healthiest Weight and School Health.
How it’s important for our community: Through the development of our broad based partnerships, we are able to expand our capacity to educate the citizens, visitors and local
17 CHIP Annual Review Report, 2016
businesses within our community with unified messages ad materials to better serve their needs through vital partnership opportunities.
2. Increase the appropriate use of healthcare
2.1 By December 31, 2016, decrease the preventable hospital discharge rate to 1,200 preventable discharges per 100,000 population under age 65. (Baseline: 1,216, AHCA, 20019-11)
The Nature Coast EMS Mobile Integrated Healthcare – Community Paramedicine (MIHP) program promotes wellness and injury prevention through home safety checklists, falls risks assessment, providing resource information and education and in home visits. Their pilot program focused on fall prevention and reduced falls from 18% of total calls to 16%. It is estimated that this reduction represents $732,700.00 in health care costs avoided.
How it’s important for our community: The largest percentage of our population lies within the age group of 65 – 74 at 17.4%. This program includes a home safety checklist, falls risks assessment, provides local resource information and education. The program benefits include risk reductions associated with falls, reduction of preventable complications, and reduced hospital admissions and readmissions. 5. Enhance Partnerships to address community health issues.
5.1. By January 31, 2014 establish and maintain a productive community health improvement partnership to participate in and monitor the health of the community through development of community health assessments and community health improvement plans.
The DOH-Citrus has received a new Community Health Assessment (CHA) dated January 7, 2016. The development of a broad based community partnership to review the CHA and to develop the Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP) using the 4 areas of improvement cited in the CHA has been meeting monthly as the Citrus Health Improvement Partnership with regularly scheduled sub-committee meetings.
How it’s important for our community: The enhancement of partnerships allows for additional opportunities for community wide education and availability of services. In addition, it provides for the development of a strong Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP) based on the needs of the community.
18 CHIP Annual Review Report, 2016
Conclusion
While this 2013 Community Health Improvement Plan leans heavily on the needs of the local, not for profit hospitals, the Florida Department of Health in Citrus County has been able to meld some of the more relevant goals and objectives into our work plan to strengthen our services to the community. During this reporting period, the DOH-Citrus George A. Dame Community Health Center (FQHC) grant expired.
Going forward, DOH – Citrus will continue to facilitate the Citrus Health Improvement Partnership with the development of our new Community Health Improvement Plan to address the 4 areas for improvement identified in the Community Health Assessment, January 7, 2016 –
Access to Care Mental Health and Substance Abuse Healthiest Weight Availability of Healthy Foods.
