the delivery of healthcare services is undergoing historic changes across our nation, and as unique as Martha’s Vineyard Hospital is in so many respects, change is coming here as well. We’ve invested more than $2 million this year in new technology and countless hours of time on the part of our dedicated staff, implementing the final pieces of a fully-integrated electronic medical record system. this system follows every patient at Martha’s Vineyard Hospital from admission to the point of discharge, either to home or to another care provider. all inpatient and outpatient records are now digital, and the lines of communication among Hospital departments and between our caregivers and other hospitals in the partners HealthCare system – are open. In June, one of the final pieces of the electronic medical record puzzle was put into place when the digital patient gateway opened. the gateway will give every patient online access to their medical records within hours of being discharged. electronic medical records meet an urgent federal mandate, but they also advance our mission of caring for the Vineyard community. patient safety and quality of care are the biggest and most immediate benefits of our new information systems and already these systems are fostering a fundamental shift toward preventive medicine and community care. It’s possible now, for the first time, to track the effectiveness of our medical care not only in the case of one patient but across the whole population we serve. With this information, Martha’s Vineyard Hospital

is beginning to reposition itself not merely as the place that serves people during their most serious medical episodes, but as an institution that reaches out to support community health in a much broader way. another big change this year at Martha’s Vineyard Hospital has been the launch of full, around-the-clock hospitalist services. Hospitalists are doctors who specialize in the care of patients during their hospitalization. they improve access to healthcare on the Island, by taking pressure off our primary care physicians so they can see more people in their daily practices. and because hospitalists specialize in the treatment of people whose conditions are more acute, they will enable Martha’s Vineyard Hospital to provide more advanced care to patient’s right here, close to home – sparing them the added stress of hospitalization off-island. excellence in the quality of our care and providing services to a community separated from the larger medical centers on the mainland, are two core goals that drive everything we do at Martha’s Vineyard Hospital. responsible financial stewardship is important mainly because we want to be here in the years and decades ahead to continue our service. on this front, we’re happy to be able to report that the financial condition of the Hospital is strong. over at Windemere, a major two-year restoration project was completed this year and in the latest Department of public Health survey this spring, we received top ratings as a five-star nursing home and one of the best facilities in Massachusetts. at the same time, as our care continues to

improve year in and year out, we are faced with an unrealistic Medicaid reimbursement system that does not even cover the cost of care for more and more of our residents who must rely on Medicaid. this continues to make Windemere’s finances an ongoing challenge. We have been working with the Department of public Health, seeking rate relief that acknowledges the uniquely high costs of providing care at Windemere. We are hopeful, but it is discouraging when an institution as well-run and respected as Windemere, supplying such a vital community service, cannot make ends meet on the reimbursement it is receiving. We remain confident, however, that if we continue to focus on providing the very best care for our Island’s seniors, we can find a way to move beyond the financial shortfall and continue to be the best we can be.

Finally, the delivery of healthcare continues to undergo dramatic changes as the affordable Care act is implemented. Where these changes will lead no one is quite sure, but we are very excited about all the possibilities and are working hard to see how Martha’s Vineyard Hospital can and will, be a part of any change for the better. We are grateful for and humbled by the Island community’s continuing support. We remain dedicated to delivering compassionate care that is worthy of that support, this year and in all the years ahead.

• this past June, MVH expanded its hospitalist program. Hospitalists are physicians whose primary focus is the care of hospitalized patients. Because their sole focus is on the inpatient side, their undivided attention improves communication among all members of your care team, improving continuity of care and your experience as a patient. the hospitalist program also reduces the workload of primary care providers giving them more time to see their patients in the office setting.

• last fall, MVH primary care practices adopted the patient Centered Medical Home model. again, through better communication, your care team is able to improve care across the spectrum of patient needs, resulting in the best use of our resources and eliminating duplication of efforts. this resulted in improved patient satisfaction and a healthier patient overall.

• and there’s more. to help our providers better manage your care, we invested in an office information system and in June, the patient gateway was launched. this web-based electronic communication system gives our patients the ability to access and review their medical records, communicate with their physicians, both on the Island and within the extensive partner’s HealthCare system, and encourages patients to be more proactive in their own care.

• over the course of the last 12 months, we successfully rolled out the inpatient electronic medical record (eMr) system. the eMr gives all caregivers in the system the ability to better communicate about a patient’s care plan by being able to access the same information at the same time. this increased communication streamlines and improves decision-making and decreases medication errors and duplicate testing. over time, moving from a paper to an electronic record will also reduce a physician’s workload, giving us more time to spend with our patients. Yet another move toward patient-centered care.

• at this time last year, Martha’s Vineyard Hospital furthered our collaboration with Massachusetts general Hospital related to both cancer and chronic pain services. these services clearly have fulfilled a need. to keep up with what has been a tremendous demand, we expanded the service hours this spring of both clinics.

• Surgical services also saw significant change as we continue to shift toward less invasive procedures. the Hospital has invested significantly in specialized equipment and staff training, and to the great satisfaction of our patients, the department is performing more minimally invasive procedures than ever before in general surgery, gynecology and orthopedics. For example, the latest high definition equipment is being used during colonoscopies. now carbon dioxide gas instead of air is used to inflate the colon, resulting in greatly improved patient comfort.

I write to you while on a flight to Chicago where I will attend hands-on training with some of the latest laparoscopic surgical equipment, including some not even commercially available yet. It is on trips like this that I am reminded of how we are always working to remain on the cutting edge of the constantly evolving delivery of care. If there was a theme this year at our hospital it would simply be called change.

the Martha’s Vineyard Hospital of today is very different from the one I began working at 12 years ago. not only has the delivery of care changed, but the speed at which these changes occur has increased, requiring us always to be attentive and responsive to those changes. Martha’s Vineyard Hospital is a microcosm of the transformations that are happening in healthcare nationwide, driven in part, by the pursuit of affordable high quality care. our approach to these changes starts by putting you, our patient, at the center of our mission.

as a result of our ongoing pursuit to improve quality of care and access, a number of significant changes have taken place at our Hospital in the last year.

one of my own favorite changes over the last year at the Hospital has been the incredible expansion of our art collection. the amazing art that lines our hospital walls helps patients focus less on disease and more on healing by providing imagery of a world beyond illness. equally important, it provides those tasked with healing, brief mental respites as they care for sick patients on a daily basis. I encourage you to visit the website to view our collection at www.mvhospital-art.com. I think you will find it inspirational.

although the theme in the past year has been change, our focus remains centered on you, our patients and supporters. I would like to personally thank you for all that you do for us and to let you know that as always, we are here to keep you healthy.

h e a l t h f a i r 2 0 1 4Our goal is to educate the public about available health services and resources at the local, state and national level. We aim to increase our community’s awareness by providing free screenings, health education, information and demonstrations to encourage healthy behavior and living.

Martha’s Vineyard Hospital hosted its annual health fair on March 15. More than 300 members of the community were able to meet with providers and take advantage of free screenings for cholesterol, MrSa, melanoma skin cancer, glaucoma, lyme disease, hearing, lead levels for children and blood pressure. Demonstrations of chiropractic care, massage therapy, homeopathy and holistic pain management were also offered. attendees were able to take part in seminars on breast health, tick-borne illnesses, life after stroke and skin cancer prevention. Island health and safety providers were on hand to meet and greet kids and offer ambulance tours and the chance to check out an oak Bluffs police cruiser.

hosPitalists: iMProVing on-island Care

T h e h o s p i T a l i s T p r o g r a m m a k e s s e n s e f r o m T h e s T a n d p o i n T o f o u r s e r v i c e T o T h e c o m m u n i T y .


one of the biggest changes Martha’s Vineyard Hospital made to the way it delivers healthcare this year, was the expansion of its hospitalist staff this June. Hospitalists are physicians whose primary focus is the care of hospitalized patient and Martha’s Vineyard Hospital now has three full-time and two mid-level providers devoted to this new service.

Dr. Jeff Zack, the Hospital’s director of emergency Services, led the expansion of the hospitalist program over the past three years. He’s a logical person to have overseen this change, because it’s usually the er doctors who see patients first and then help decide the best place for them to receive further treatment – at home, perhaps in Boston or here at Martha’s Vineyard Hospital.

a central consideration driving this change, Dr. Zack says, is the difficulty the Hospital’s primary care physicians were experiencing in what for many years were their dual roles: seeing patients every day while also supervising their care if they were admitted.

“It’s become harder for primary care doctors to do both jobs,” says Dr. Zack. “If they have to do both, something has to give, and that usually comes in the form of not seeing more outpatients. So in a real sense, the demand for primary care on the Island has been a main driving force behind this change.”

Hospitalists are a proven and widely accepted part of the national healthcare scene, says Dr. Zack: “Hospitalist medicine has come into its own in the last ten years. this all evolved because it’s becoming harder and harder to practice inpatient and outpatient medicine at the same time – both from a regulatory standpoint, with all the paperwork involved, and from an economic standpoint as well.

“From a community standpoint, this is about opening up access to

primary care physicians on the Island. By taking away this portion of their work, we’re freeing them up to see more patients in their office practices.”

Hospitalists, because of their specialized training and because they spend all of their time in the acute care setting, are better equipped to care for people who are much sicker than the patients usually cared for by family physicians.

now the Hospital’s primary care physicians can concentrate on their outpatient practices while the hospitalists concentrate on caring for inpatients. a hospitalist can be there to order tests, and then be there an hour later to view the results of those tests and make immediate decisions based on them. their whole, undivided focus can be on the patient in the hospital.

By expanding the program, it almost certainly means that fewer Vineyard patients will have to be transferred from the Hospital. “We understand the hardship involved in having to go off-Island,” says Dr. Zack, “when you’re already facing a precarious medical situation. Here you are, perhaps the sickest you’ve been in your life, going to a place where you don’t have the same support from your family and friends. We all realize what it means every time we send somebody up north, and we don’t take that decision lightly.”

“In the er, we discuss what might be the best place for a patient to go next – it might be home, or Boston, or here. If we think the best place for that patient is here, we review the case with a hospitalist to determine the next best steps. With this new hospitalist service, the Hospital is going to be able to take care of more people right here at home. this makes sense from a business standpoint, but more importantly, it makes sense from the standpoint of our service to the community.”

eleCtroniC MediCal reCords:a sea Change for hosPital


a three-year quest to bring modern information technology to Martha’s Vineyard Hospital as part of a challenging set of government standards for the healthcare industry, known as “Meaningful use,” is making great progress.

Mike Cosgrave, the Hospital’s information services manager, has been overseeing the massive transformation. “We’ve been introducing a lot of change in a very short span of time,” Mr. Cosgrave says. “We started rolling out this software two years ago, building a pyramid of services, with the top of that pyramid being the physicians’ ability to order tests and procedures electronically. But before that can happen, you need an electronic formulary in place in your pharmacy, you need to have patient histories in the system, and you need to have the patient registered in the system properly.

“It really goes all the way back to the moment when a patient walks in the door.”

there have been many milestones during the process that leads to verification – a 90-day period that began in May 2014 to demonstrate the system meets certain requirements for Stage I of the standards.• October 2013: Electronic system for

clinical documentation went live for all the Hospital’s nurses.

• February 2014: Bedside verification of medications went live using barcodes that match each medication with a patient’s medical record.

• April 2014: The last piece of the Hospital’s comprehensive new electronic system – the Emergency Department Information System – went online.

• June 2014: Launch of Patient Gateway.this transition has meant learning

new skills for almost every member of the Hospital’s staff.

His best allies have been what Mr. Cosgrave calls his “super-users,” members of the staff who have embraced this new technology and given him feedback as each new system is implemented. “We involve a core team for each new piece of software, and we rely on them heavily for guidance to make it better.”

Many nurses, physicians, and pharmacists have contributed to the implementation of the new technology. these clinicians were involved with the design, testing, and rollout of the new software.

the Hospital’s transition to electronic medical records is partly about meeting a government standard, but Mr. Cosgrave says the more important bottom line is the quality of medical care. the Hospital’s new electronic systems will help eliminate the cost and inconvenience of duplicated medical tests, improve patient safety and privacy, and will enable healthcare providers to analyze trends across populations with a precision that’s never been possible before.

the latest, most visible piece of the Hospital’s digital revolution went live in June, when partners HealthCare, the parent company of Martha’s Vineyard Hospital, launched its patient gateway. the gateway enables patients at Martha’s Vineyard Hospital to log onto a secure website soon after their discharge and access their own medical record. “From the patient gateway,” Mr. Cosgrave says, “you can log in securely and view your history, download it, and transmit it elsewhere if you want to.”

He is convinced this innovation will work to everyone’s benefit. “engaging patients with their healthcare,” he says, “will improve health outcomes and help drive down costs all by itself.”

“our goal is to provide a more comprehensive assessment and continuity of

care.”

“pain is the fifth vital sign,” says Dr. Sanjeev Chhangani, chief of anesthesiology at Martha’s Vineyard Hospital. “there’s heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature, respiration – and pain.”

of all the human vital signs, pain may be the most difficult to measure – no thermometer or stethoscope can help a doctor here, but that hardly makes it less medically urgent. and now the anesthesiology department at Martha’s Vineyard Hospital has expanded to include a pain medicine program that connects Island patients with the expertise of the Center for pain Medicine at Massachusetts general Hospital.

the program, organized last fall, involves consultations by telemedicine with doctors in Boston on three Wednesdays a month. and on two days each month – the schedule was doubled this spring to meet Island demand – doctors perform procedures at Martha’s Vineyard Hospital that previously were available only in Boston.

this new program is meeting a clear and urgent Island need. the Island pain medicine program has had more than 100 transactions with clients in its first six months. Cheryl Kram, rn, a member of the clinic’s team, says, “low back pain is the most common complaint. patients we see have degenerative disease along their spine. We see patients with headaches. We’ve had patients with other nerve issues. We’re advising as well as treating. By having this connection with Mass general, it opens other connections for our patients with services they can provide.”

Supervising the program and making regular visits to treat Island patients is Dr. george Hanna, anesthesiologist and pain management physician at the Center for pain Medicine at Mass general. pain medicine services being performed now at Martha’s Vineyard Hospital include procedures which until recently, weren’t available here: steroid injections, joint injections, trigger point injections, nerve blocks and radio frequency lesioning are among them.

Massachusetts general Hospital has been providing anesthesiology services to Martha’s Vineyard Hospital since June of 2011. according

to Dr. Chhangani, “Before Mass general took over anesthesia here, the trend was just to symptomatically treat the pain. With this service, our goal is to provide more comprehensive assessment and continuity of care.”

Ms. Kram agrees wholeheartedly. “We’re not saying medication, medication, medication. It could mean yoga, aqua therapy, physical therapy. We look at non-traditional approaches because when pain is chronic, we’re not going to stop the pain entirely. the misconception some patients have is that their pain is going to be zero. What we ask our patients is where does your pain need to be for you to be able to function? We’re trying to be mindful about where each patient is and what will benefit them. and we do talk to patients about getting off of narcotics, because long-term, they’re just not the best way to manage pain.”

one of the central satisfactions of his work as an anesthesiologist, says Dr. Chhangani, is the simple experience of bringing relief to a person in pain. “In anesthesia and critical care, you see such quick results. You see how the patient feels after the pain is taken care of. the other day we treated a person with a fractured humerus and when we administered the nerve block, it took care of her pain right away. an internist or office physician might order tests, wait for the results to come back, prescribe medications and then wait. In anesthesia, we see the results right away and it’s very satisfying.”

the Island’s new pain medicine program grew out of Dr. Chhangani’s conversations with physicians at Martha’s Vineyard Hospital who sought his help referring their patients to the Boston pain center. a dialogue grew out of his referrals, and the new program was born. Dr. Chhangani says, “now patients can see a physician via telemedicine who can make the initial assessment and if a procedure needs to be scheduled, we can get it done right here.”

Concludes Dr. Chhangani: “It’s meeting a real need here on the Island, and so far it’s been a huge success.”

on May 5th, Dr. timothy guiney was appointed as the first recipient of the Paul Dudley White, MD Distinguished Service Chair in Cardiology in honor of Dr. guiney’s 40-year career at Massachusetts general Hospital. With a long history in caring for patients with heart disease, beginning with Dr. paul Dudley White, the father of american cardiology, Massachusetts general Hospital has fostered a culture where cardiologists uphold an unwavering commitment to compassionate care for their patients and their families.

like Dr. guiney, Dr. White was born in Boston and educated at Harvard Medical School. In 1913, Dr. White worked in london with Sir thomas lewis and brought the first electrocardiogram to Massachusetts general Hospital and established the specialty in diseases of the heart. Dr. White’s distinguished career was marked by many honors including the presidency of the american Heart association and the presidential Medal of Freedom. Dr. guiney embraced the principle and practice style of Dr. White and has provided extraordinary care for his patients in Boston, on the Vineyard and around the world.

Dear Friends,

Sight-unseen, but with the feeling it could be the right place for me, I abandoned the corporate world in 1997 and moved to the Vineyard. Chalk it up to serendipity – I met my now-husband Jeff in the parking lot of Alley’s General Store and Martha’s Vineyard Hospital saved my life – three times.

In the spring of 2005, I had no idea there was anything wrong with my health. After routine blood tests, Dr. Ellen McMahon, my Hospital primary care physician, noticed I was slightly anemic and my kidney readings were suspicious. Further tests didn’t confirm any specific problems, but she was still uneasy. “Perhaps this is just an anomaly,” she said, “but I’d like you to come back again in three months.”

In retrospect, I realize I was avoiding her. When I didn’t show up, Dr. McMahon called and persuaded me to undergo additional testing. All my diagnostic work – x-rays, bone marrow biopsy and blood work – were all done right here at our hospital. In January of 2006, I got my diagnosis: amyloidosis.

Amyloidosis, an abnormal protein build-up in tissue, afflicts only eight people in every million. Most doctors work a lifetime without ever encountering this disorder. It’s often confused with more common diseases – kidney disease, heart disease and multiple myeloma among them. So the fact that I got my diagnosis here was amazing.

Dr. McMahon immediately connected me with the Amyloidosis Center in Boston where I underwent a brutal course of high-dose chemotherapy and a stem cell transplant. This involved completely destroying and then re-starting my immune system. Only 50 percent of patients survive the treatment I underwent in Boston. I am so lucky to be one of them.

However, as it turned out, that medical crisis was not my only experience at Martha’s Vineyard Hospital. Sometime later, the Hospital’s mammography department discovered I had breast cancer. Proving that bad news comes in threes, I was later found to have a hyperthyroid condition. Very fortunately, all three medical issues were caught early by our Hospital. I am eternally grateful for the excellent medical care I received.

As a result, Jeff and I are currently composing our will to include a planned gift to support the Hospital. I encourage you to support Martha’s Vineyard Hospital as generously as you can too. Please do not underestimate how important our Hospital is to the health of your family, friends and yourself.
