2018 Quality Metrics Roll-out

2018 Quality Metrics Roll-out

As mentioned in the last AHP⁵, AHP’s network-wide quality metrics are now available. We will be communicating more closely with different groups of providers in the near future, but for now you can find a copy of the measures below. It is worthy to note that the measures will be added to the Arcadia dashboard in the coming weeks, and that there have been no new measures added this year. In fact, there are fewer measures overall than in prior years. Within AHP we have a number of resources to assist you in your success on the measures this year: data coordination, the optimization team, and practice facilitation.

Our success in quality performance as a network overall will determine future incentives, so please make sure that all members of your clinical team are aware of the measures and the 90th percentile goal. Not only does success ensure financial rewards, it translates into real world differences for our patients as demonstrated by disease prevention, reduced inpatient admissions, and ED visits avoided.
