50High Point RegionalNamed One of the TopCardiovascular Hospitals in the Nation

On November 15, 2010, HPRHS President Jeff Millerlearned High Point Regional Health System had beennamed one of the 50 top cardiovascular hospitals inthe nation for 2011 by Thomson Reuters.

“This recognition is a tremendous milestone for ourheart program,” Miller says. “Thomson Reuters is the industry leader in collecting and assimilatinghealthcare data and monitors vital healthcare trends,such as excellence in cardiovascular care, across theUnited States.

“Recognition by Thomson Reuters carries a great dealof prestige,” Miller explains.

Over 1,000 hospitals in the United States offer thecardiovascular services regularly monitored byThomson Reuters. Out of those hospitals, ThomsonReuters selected the 50 best cardiovascular services.Within those 50 top cardiovascular facilities, just 15 are

community hospitals like High Point Regional, Millerpoints out.

This honor places High Point Regional in the samehierarchy of healthcare providers as premier majormedical centers and teaching hospitals withcardiovascular residency programs throughout thenation.

“This is the biggest and best accomplishment that ourheart program has had,” explains cardiologist Dr. ZanTyson of Carolina Cardiology Cornerstone. “It’s a validaccomplishment in that all of the hospitals monitoredare based on the same statistics. This is not an awardor a designation that you can seek or apply for.”

The “Top 50” designation is based on three years ofdata about each hospital’s success in targeted areas.

In determining this honor, Thomson Reuters analyzed

data from 1,022 hospitals. They looked at outcomesfor heart failure patients, myocardial infarction (heartattack) patients, patients who underwent cardiac arterybypass graft (CABG)surgery and thoseundergoingpercutaneouscoronary interventionssuch as angioplasty, stent placement and atherectomy.

The hospitals that made it to the top tier were theones whose patients have higher survival rates,shorter hospital stays, fewer readmissions, fewercomplications and lower costs of care.

“These are the very same goals we have alwaysmaintained for heart care at High Point Regional,” Miller says.

When High Point Regional’s leaders began plans toexpand the hospital’s cardiology services to includecardiovascular surgery and a comprehensive heartcenter well over 20 years ago, they pursued this visionwith one goal: Excellence.

In January 1991 High Point Regional performed its firstopen heart surgery, and today the hospital performsapproximately 240 such surgeries annually. In 2001,High Point Regional opened Carolina Regional HeartCenter, a facility that houses the offices of allcardiologists and cardiovascular surgeons, state-of-

the-art cardiovascular technology and research,invasive, non-invasive and interventional procedures,as well as cardiac and pulmonary rehabilitation.

“Dr. Cheek and Ihave both been partof this program sincethe very beginning,”

says Dr. Tyson who specializes in heart rhythmdisorders. He is the director of Carolina CardiologyCornerstone’s Electrophysiology (EP) Program anddirector for High Point Regional's OutpatientCatheterization and EP laboratories.

“From the very beginning, our plans were to build oneof the best programs in the country,” Miller explains.“Our region reached out to raise the funds necessaryto build – and continue to operate – this center. Thecampaign raised a total of nearly $13 million dollarswhich funded several projects. Contributions from Fred& Barbara Wilson helped fund our Cath Lab and therenovation of our critical care unit was funded by Jackand Marsha Slane.”

“And thanks to the dedication of our cardiologists,cardiothoracic surgeons, nurses and countlesssupport staff, we have been able to make that vision a reality.”

Being named one of the top 50 heart programs in thenation is affirmation that the entire Heart Team has had

Thomson Reuters 2011 Top 50 Cardiovascular Hospitals

This elite group of winners has raised the bar significantly, delivering higher survival rates, shorter hospitalstays, fewer readmissions and lower costs - which add up to enormous value for the communities theyserve. As a result, everyone benefits: patients, families, employers, insurers and the hospital itself.

Comparing the award winners to similar high-volume non-award winning hospitals, we found that if allcardiovascular providers performed at the level of this year's winners:

• More than 7,500 additional lives could be saved.• Nearly 12,000 additional patients could be complication-free.• Approximately $910 million could be saved.

“Recognition by Thomson Reuters carries a great deal of prestige.”

“I heard a patient from Lexington say that this is theplace to come for heart surgery,” says cardiovascularsurgeon Dr. Stephen Mills of Triad Cardiac & ThoracicSurgery of High Point.

Dr. Mills, who was one of the first two cardiothoracic(CT) surgeons in High Point Regional’s open heart

surgery program and who has been with the programsince its inception, takes immense satisfaction in theThomson Reuters designation, yet he never losessight of the focus of Carolina Regional Heart Center– the patients.

“It’s been very gratifying to watch this program growfrom the ground up and to know that patients now viewus as their first choice for care,” Mills says.

“Our statistics are very impressive, and that’s a resultof communication and collaboration between the CTsurgeons, the cardiologists and the nursing staff. Rightnow our hospital stay for cardiothoracic surgery is threedays. This is what patients can expect when they comehere,” Mills explains.

“The good outcomes of patient care are a reflection ofthe culture and the teamwork here. We’ve always hadhigh expectations and attention to detail,” Millsexplains.

Keys to the success of High Point Regional’s heartprogram are fairly simple, in theory that is.

“All 20 cardiologists on staff are members of thesame medical group. Consequently, they all followthe same patient care protocols and maintain opencommunication,” points out cardiologist Dr. Barry

Cheek of Carolina Cardiology Cornerstone. Dr.Cheek serves as director of the InpatientCatheterization Laboratory at High Point RegionalHospital and serves with Dr. Tyson on the board ofdirectors for Carolina Regional Heart Center.

“There is a lot of interaction between us,” explains Dr.Cheek, who along with Dr. Tysonand Dr. Mills has beeninstrumental in Carolina RegionalHeart Center’s vision andsuccess.

“There’s a comfort level here thatyou don’t see at other hospitals,”Dr. Mills says. “We understand

how the other thinks. We understand the direction wewill each take with a patient. There’s a tremendousability of the nurses to know what to expect for ourpatients’ care too.”

Plus, the entire team feels rooted in this community –a community that put its faith and its financial supportbehind a vision to provide excellent heart care.

“We’ve been the recipients of a generous community,”Mills says. “This community has made certain that wehad the best facilities in which to provide care.

The Millis family in particular has continued toprovide ongoing support over the years and mostrecently established the Millis Heart Fund at HighPoint Regional.

“We wanted to provide a way to recognize theincredible work and achievements of ourcardiovascular team at High Point Regional” saysMolly Millis Hedgecock. “Our hope was that ourcontributions would encourage others to helpensure this outstanding level of healthcare ismaintained and available to all in our communitynow and into the future.”

High Point Regional Health Systemreceived a $380,000 grant, which willbe used in collaboration with theMental Health Association in HighPoint to establish an outpatienttreatment service for needy adultswho suffer from severe andpersistent mental illness. The grant isfrom The Duke Endowment.

“I am thrilled about this grant and thesupport it will enable the communityto provide to patients coming out ofour hospital, said Kitty Stafford,Behavioral Health clinical director atHigh Point Regional. For the past fiveyears, there has been a tremendousgap in outpatient therapy servicesavailable in our community. Thisgrant will provide patients with anopportunity to receive ongoing,outpatient therapy and hopefullyprevent re-hospitalization.”

Thanks to the grant, between 450and 500 patients annually will receivecare who would otherwise have noaccess to outpatient treatment.Mental illness statistics are bothalarming and growing. In fact, more

than 27,000 residents in GuilfordCounty suffer from mental illness andwith N.C. Mental Health Reform,these numbers are increasing.

"With the increase in psychiatricpatients seen in the Emergency

Department, the problem of where to seek outpatient services hasplaced a huge strain on the system,said Meg Cashion, EmergencyDepartment manager at High PointRegional. As a result, there is a lackof available resources to serveindigent patients who are dischargedfrom hospitals with no plan fornecessary individual therapy.

“We are extremely fortunate to havebeen the recipient of this grant. Thiswill assist us in providing the follow-up care that is seriously needed."

“This grant will support High Point Regional and the Mental Health Association in providingoutpatient services in conjunctionwith medication management forincreased positive outcomes.

High Point Regional will develop the patient’s aftercare plan andfacilitates a timely referral to theMental Health Association. TheMental Health Association will makepersonal contact with the patient to increase the likelihood of follow-through with aftercare/dischargeplanning for outpatient services andmedication management.

The Duke Endowment, located in Charlotte, N.C.,seeks to fulfill the legacy of James B. Duke by improvinglives and communities in the Carolinas through highereducation, health care, rural churches and children’sservices. Since its inception, the Endowment hasawarded nearly $2.7 billion in grants.
