Healthcare facilities had no idea if they were achieving very good outcomes or not. Therefore, the reasons to improve often resulted from examining an issue after the fact. Current emphasis is on prevention, so comparing performance and benchmarking great performers has become vital. Disclaimer information here… 13 Click toReporting Public edit Master & Transparency title style Public Reporting of hospital and clinic data is well-established in Wisconsin. There are many reasons for publicly reporting health care performance data: •Enhance consumer choice by helping to identify high quality providers •Assist employers in designing benefits that incorporate quality measures •Promote research-based care to the public •Raise the quality of care provided through competition and selection of providers •Control growth of administrative resources, and •Minimize conflicting or misleading quality information by providing a trusted source of information. In addition, studies have shown that health care facilities that participate in public reporting do more to actively improve their results than hospitals that do not publicly report.

Here is how these groups might use publicly reported health care data: • Consumers. Consumers could use this information from the time they choose a health plan to the point of selecting a health care provider for a specific service. • Providers. Health care providers would benefit from more transparent price and quality information and for identifying the most efficient and effective referrals. • Employers/Purchasers. Employers may want information to use in selecting from various health plans or self-insured options. • Policymakers. To monitor changes in the overall system, pinpoint areas that warrant closer investigation, and encourage the reporting groups to evaluate their own performance.

QI efforts normally rely on teams of staff people to provide the expertise needed to design useful change. If improvement is viewed as the work of only a few people, you can see how the pace of improvement would be affected. *The Tipping Point, by Malcolm Gladwell Disclaimer information here… Imagine your hospital or clinic…How many people work there? How many are actively involved in improvement efforts? 17 Click QI Efforts to edit help Master patients title&style families Quality Improvement serves an important function in improving or mistake-proofing processes that could endanger the safety or lives of patients.
