Can't claims data demonstrate quality?
Procedural (claims) information, price data or physician-ratings systems are inadequate ways to discuss or convey quality of care. To measure and communicate medical value, you need an outcome system that helps captures risk-adjusted patient information, detailed treatment data and impartial, validated survey instruments.

Why not an EMR?
Electronic Medical Record (EMR) systems are intended to improve efficiency largely through eliminating errors and automating paper-based tasks — hence they are administrative-oriented. Outcome systems are designed to improve effectiveness through managing and identifying treatment variance and causation — hence they are clinician-oriented.

How do clinical trials fit in?
Clinical trials, while fundamental to assessing new medical products or procedures, cannot be used to move medicine to being practiced on the basis of clinical evidence. They are expensive and take much too long to conduct. Outcomes information is required to practice evidence-based medicine.

Clinic administrators can easily and affordably establish treatment-specific outcome measurement baselines to address today's consumer-health and P4P challenges while proactively building a basis of knowledge to respond to comparative effectiveness requirements as they are defined.

Using Patient Reported Outcomes (PRO) and basic intervention data, you can generate treatment-specific baseline outcome data in these therapeutic areas: spine, hip, knee, shoulder, extremities and certain general surgery areas. Other therapeutic areas are being added.

Clinic-friendly software coupled with a simple to use Patient Portal, minimizes the impact on clinic staff time. A monthly subscription fee of $100/physician keeps the costs low and scalable as needs dictate.
