Clinical Performance Measures in Evaluating Quality of Care

Evidence-based clinical performance measures are emerging as a powerful and credible information resource for enhancing a managed care organization's (MCOs) quality improvement efforts. Properly deployed and interpreted, these measures allow MCOs and providers to alter clinical practices to facilitate better outcomes and an improved standard of care. Using the measures to monitor quality over time requires knowledge of the purpose and intended use of the measures, the characteristics of the clinical conditions being measured, and the characteristics of the measures being considered for use.
