Diagnostic Imaging: Stenosis Measurement in Carotid Imaging Reports

  • Percentage of final reports for carotid imaging studies (neck magnetic resonance angiography (MRA), neck computerized tomographic angiography (CTA), neck duplex ultrasound, carotid angiogram) performed that include direct or indirect reference to measurements of distal internal carotid diameter as the denominator for stenosis measurement

Excess days in acute care (EDAC) after hospitalization for heart failure (HF)

  • The measure assesses days spent in acute care within 30 days of discharge from an inpatient hospitalization for HF to provide a patient-centered assessment of the post-discharge period. This measure is intended to capture the quality of care transitions provided to discharged patients who had a HF hospitalization by collectively measuring a set of adverse acute care outcomes that can occur post-discharge: emergency department (ED) visits, observation stays, and unplanned readmissions at any time during the 30 days post-discharge.

Excess days in acute care (EDAC) after hospitalization for pneumonia

  • This measure assesses days spent in acute care within 30 days of discharge from an inpatient hospitalization for pneumonia, including aspiration pneumonia or for sepsis (not severe sepsis) with a secondary discharge diagnosis of pneumonia coded in the claim as present on admission (POA) and no secondary diagnosis of severe sepsis coded as POA.

Febrile Neutropenia Risk Assessment Prior to Chemotherapy

  • Percentage of patients with a solid malignant tumor or lymphoma who had a febrile neutropenia (FN) risk assessment completed and documented in the medical record prior to the first cycle of intravenous chemotherapy

Functional status change for patients with elbow, wrist and hand impairments

  • A self-report outcome measure of functional status for patients 14 years+ with elbow, wrist, hand impairments. The change in functional status assessed using FOTO (elbow, wrist and hand) PROM is adjusted to patient characteristics known to be associated with functional status outcomes (risk adjusted) and used as a performance measure at the patient level, at the individual clinician, and at the clinic level to assess quality.

Functional status change for patients with Foot and Ankle impairments

  • This is a patient-reported outcome performance measure (PRO-PM) consisting of an item response theory-based patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) of change in functional status (FS) for patients aged 14 years and older with foot and ankle impairments. The change in FS is assessed using the FOTO Lower Extremity Physical Function (LEPF) PROM. The measure is adjusted to patient characteristics known to be associated with FS outcomes (risk adjusted) and used as a performance measure at the patient, individual clinician, and clinic levels to assess quality.

Functional status change for patients with General orthopaedic impairments

  • A self-report outcome measure of functional status for patients 14 years+ with general orthopaedic impairments. The change in functional status assessed using FOTO (general orthopedic) PROM is adjusted to patient characteristics known to be associated with functional status outcomes (risk adjusted) and used as a performance measure at the patient level, at the individual clinician, and at the clinic level by to assess quality.

Functional status change for patients with Hip impairments

  • A self-report measure of change in functional status for patients 14 years+ with hip impairments. The change in functional status assessed using FOTO’s (hip) PROM is adjusted to patient characteristics known to be associated with functional status outcomes (risk adjusted) and used as a performance measure at the patient level, at the individual clinician, and at the clinic level to assess quality.

Functional status change for patients with Knee impairments

  • A self-report measure of change in functional status for patients 14 year+ with knee impairments. The change in functional status assessed using FOTO’s (knee ) PROM is adjusted to patient characteristics known to be associated with functional status outcomes (risk adjusted) and used as a performance measure at the patient level, at the individual clinician, and at the clinic level to assess quality.

    0422

Functional status change for patients with Shoulder impairments

  • A self-report outcome measure of change in functional status for patients 14 years+ with shoulder impairments. The change in functional status assess using FOTO’s (shoulder) PROM is adjusted to patient characteristics known to be associated with functional status outcomes (risk adjusted) and used as a performance measure at the patient level, at the individual clinician, and at the clinic level to assess quality.
