Quality Metrics project
|
Julia Christ worked with MHA students last semesters on
the SNF Quality Scorecard. Many organizations asking SNFs for a variety of
quality metrics; would like to develop a standard “ask” to minimize the
workload on the SNFs. Quality metrics now being used by a variety of
organizations, contracts, ACO, Medicare/Medicaid for payment as well as
measuring quality. This scorecard will be used by Metro Alliance partner
facilities in an effort to standardize the reporting of quality data.

Scorecard
and introduction memo to be placed on the web under new Quality Metrics
project. Each organization is encouraged to use it when asking for SNF
quality metrics.

7.
Patient Satisfaction
|
Julia Crist is lead.
Allina, Fairview, HealthEast, and Health Partners developed/agreed upon 3 TCU
patient satisfaction survey questions to be included in each organization’s
patient satisfaction survey starting 1/2017. This will provide benchmark for
each organization to compare themselves to other similar organizations.
Currently Fairview is looking to out-source survey and interested in
partnering with other organizations.
Questions:
1.
Your Healthcare Provider involved you
and your family in discussions and decisions about your healthcare. (Yes,
Definitely; Yes, Somewhat; No)
2. Your
Healthcare Provider explained your condition and progress. (Yes,
Definitely: Yes, Somewhat; No)
3.
Would you recommend your Healthcare Provider to others? Yes No

Allina, HP and Park Nic will upload there data (and back

HealthEast and Fairview will continue to work toward getting this data
collection and results uploaded.

the survey collection.
