MAGIC: Shared decision making

Learning

We are carrying out an ongoing evaluation of this programme.

The evaluation has the following three key aims:

to surface the theory of change underpinning the MAGIC programme
to analyse the implementation process of the MAGIC programme
to analyse changes to clinicians’ and patients’ participation in shared decision making.

I applaud this initiative. In evaluating tools however it will be easy to miss the tools already being used by patients themselves. One such tool is BaseLine© which is endorsed by the NHSI for use by clinicians and managers when monitoring and improving the performance of critical processes, pathways and commissioning interventions. It is now being adapted for use by patients and will be tested later next year by EMIS in GP Practice trials. More than trying to empower clinicians and patients, the tool enables individuals to self-empower. By following this link you will be able to see two patient case studies where patients are using BaseLine© to transform the conversation they have with their physician – and their outcomes. http://threewinsacademy.com/An_Information_System_For_The_Self-Managing_Patient.pdf
The paper incidentally is also a polemic that argues not just for wider patient access to their physician’s notes, but also for the joint creation of those notes.
