Objective: Increased demand for quality primary care and value-based payment has prompted interest in implementing primary care teams. Evidence-based recommendations for implementing teams will be critical to successful PA participation. This study sought to describe how primary care providers (PCPs) define team membership boundaries and coordinate tasks., Methods: This mixed-methods study included 28 PCPs from a primary care network. We analyzed survey data using descriptive statistics and interview data using content analysis., Results: Ninety-six percent of PCPs reported team membership. Team models fell into one of five categories. The predominant coordination mechanism differed by whether coordination was required in a visit or between visits., Conclusions: Team-based primary care is a strategy for improving access to quality primary care. Most PCPs define team membership based on within-visit task interdependencies. Our findings suggest that team-based interventions can focus on clarifying team membership, increasing interaction between clinicians, and enhancing the electronic health record to facilitate between-visit coordination., (Copyright © 2022 American Academy of Physician Assistants.)

Sharing medical data can benefit many aspects of biomedical research studies. However, medical data usually contains sensitive patient information, which cannot be shared directly. Summary statistics, like histogram, are widely used in medical research which serves as a sanitized synopsis of the raw health dataset such as Electrical Health Records (EHR). Such synopsized representation is then be used to support advanced operations over health dataset such as counting queries and learning based tasks. While privacy becomes an increasingly important issue for generating and publishing health data based histograms. Previous solutions show promise on securely generating histogram via differential privacy, however such methods only consider a centralized solution and the accuracy is still a limitation for real world applications. In this paper, we propose a novel hybrid solution to combine two rigorous theoretical models (homomorphic encryption and differential privacy) for securely generating synthetic V-optimal histograms over distributed datasets. Our results demonstrated accuracy improvement over previous study over real medical datasets.

- Abstract
The Pennsylvania Patient Safety Reporting System is a confidential, statewide Internet reporting system to which all Pennsylvania hospitals, outpatient-surgery facilities, and birthing centers, as well as some abortion facilities, must file information on medical errors.Safety Monitor is a column from Pennsylvania's Patient Safety Authority, the authority that informs nurses on issues that can affect patient safety and presents strategies they can easily integrate into practice. For more information on the authority, visit www.patientsafetyauthority.org. For the original article discussed in this column or for other articles on patient safety, click on "Patient Safety Advisories" and then "Advisory Library" in the left-hand navigation menu.
