Participating Hospitals Generate Business Intelligence Reports Customized reports that examine patient outcomes that influence costs and reimbursement and the resources deployed to achieve outcomes. Benchmark performance against like hospitals, hospitals in the same state, other facilities in a system, Magnet hospitals and more. Compare unit-based performance within service lines. Drill down to the unit level to understand processes that affect patient safety and quality to better understand where to prioritize improvements. Identify other hospitals that are doing better to learn from their best practice. 9 CALNOC Unit Level Data Adult Acute Care: Critical Care Step Down Telemetry Medical/Surgical Pediatrics: Level 3-4 NICU Level 2 Special Care Nursery Critical Care Step Down Medical/Surgical Post Acute: Hospital-Based Skilled Nursing (SNF) Acute Rehabilitation Emergency Department Maternal/Child Care 10 5

Benchmarking Reports: Understand Ranking (PercenAles) Unit Type Comparisons Facility-level Comparisons Facility s Percentile Rank 1/30/14 20 If the 2000 rate of 10.3 had continued into 2013, 10,300 of 100,000 CALNOC patients would have had HAPU. But with a 2013 rate of 0.4 HAPU --- sparing 9,900 pain and suffering. EXAMPLE That CALNOC Hospitals improve what they measure! 9
Target Zero SUSTAINED by half of CALNOC Hospitals! Health care providers should be relentless in their efforts to reduce the risk for injury from care, aiming for zero harm whenever possible and striving to create a system that reliably provides highquality health care for everyone. 85 National Strategy for Quality Improvement in Healthcare BUT OPPORTUNITY REMAINS: Great variation between hospital systems in HAPU rates. 10
National Focus on Quality, Safety, Cost, Efficiency and Effectiveness Must Include Nursing s Contribution Nursing sensitive quality measures are rapidly moving into healthcare public reporting and pay for performance. Nursing sensitive defined as processes and outcomes that are affected, provided, and/or influenced by nursing personnel, but for which nursing is not exclusively responsible. (National Quality Forum) Nursing care in hospitals is a huge contribution to acute care health status. Nursing care must also be measured and benchmarked across transitions in care and settings. Post-acute care needs collaborative champions to move forward. Ambulatory care is diverse. 21 21 How Can IOM Help? Synthesize Measurements: Gather the evidence and review with expert panels to determine what are the very FEW measures we should consider? Champion Meaningful Measurement: Outside the walls of the hospital is challenging for measurement development of nursing care value and impact on health status. Link Measurement and Policy: Healthcare providers can not spare resources to measure for the sake of measurement. Assure Industry Resources: New measurement development and benchmark capacity 22 11
