Measurement of Quality Data What should we measure? How should we measure it?
13
Cardiac Surgery Reporting Northern New England (1987) New York (1989) STS (1992) Pennsylvania (1992) VA NSQIP (1994) mort dec 27% New Jersey (1994) California (2001)
14
“… to give consumers information they can use in making informed choices…” “…to encourage hospitals to take an in-depth look at their cardiac surgery programs, and make changes that can improve surgical outcomes…” www.state.nj.us/health/hcsa/cabgs99/qna.htm GOALS
15
Types of Data 1. Mortality 2. Morbidity / Quality of Life 3. Process variables 4. Decision-making variables
16
Central Limit Theorem – The more you measure, the less you learn Rare events – 2 % outcome characteristics are very difficult to stratify Problems
17
Use of Quality Data Who should use the data? How should the data be used?
18
Who is the Audience? Patients Where should I go for care? Physicians How can I improve my care? Government Do we intervene in care? Administration Are we in compliance? Payors To whom do we refer our insured?
19
HCFA Mortality Data Mid to late 1980’s Administrative database Risk adjustment from same dataset Poor accuracy Rarely used by consumers 31% of hospitals used for internal purposes Ultimately discontinued JAMA. 1990;263:247-249 JAMA. 2000;283:1866-1874.

22
Cardiac Surgery Reporting Cardiac Surgeon survey 70% no change in practice Gaming of risk factors Refused high risk patients because of reporting “…denial of surgical treatment to high risk patients.” Burak et al. Ann Thorac Surg 1999;68:1195-1200
23
Practical Aspects What systems of care exist now? How can we develop new systems of care? How can we develop efficient, new systems of care?
24
What systems are in place to assure optimal financial reimbursement?
