Participation in at least one multi-center, standardized data collection and feedback program for pediatric and congenital heart surgery that provides benchmarking of the physician’s data relative to national and regional programs and uses process and outcome measures.
Participation in a clinical database with broad state, regional, or national representation, that provides regular performance reports based on benchmarked data
Participation in a multi-center data collection and feedback program that provides benchmarking of the physician’s data relative to national programs and uses structural, process, and outcome measures.
Participation in a multi-center, standardized data collection and feedback program that will establish national dose index benchmarks for designated examinations. The registry will eventually provide a comparison of practice or facility dose indices such as CTDIvol and DLP for specified examinations relative to national and regional benchmarks. Data is captured electronically from the images of CT examinations using Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) standards and the Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise (IHE) Radiation Exposure Monitoring (REM) profile.
Percentage of ASC admissions experiencing a burn prior to discharge
The Patient Experience of Psychiatric Care as Measure by the Inpatient Consumer Survey (ICS) was developed to gather patient´s evaluation of their inpatient psychiatric care. The survey is composed of the following six individual measures or domains:
Percentage of ASC admissions experiencing a fall in the ASC.
All documented falls, with or without injury, experienced by patients on eligible unit types in a calendar quarter. Reported as Total Falls per 1,000 Patient Days.
(Total number of falls / Patient days) X 1000
Measure focus is safety.
Target population is adult acute care inpatient and adult rehabilitation patients.
This measure assesses how well facilities provide clear, personalized discharge instructions to patients aged 18 years or older who had a surgery or procedure at an outpatient facility. It uses a 9-item survey to obtain patient’s feedback on 3 domains: applicability; medications; and daily activities. Facility scores are calculated by averaging the individual patient scores for each facility.
This measure identifies patients 2 years of age and older with acute otitis externa who were or were not prescribed systemic antimicrobial therapy.
