Measuring What Matters: Novel Approaches to Healthcare Quality Metrics

Traditional healthcare quality metrics, while foundational, are increasingly recognized as insufficient for capturing the full spectrum of care quality in today's complex healthcare environment. As value-based care models mature and patient expectations evolve, organizations are exploring more comprehensive and nuanced approaches to measuring quality that better reflect patient experiences, clinical outcomes, and system performance.

This discussion will explore innovative quality measurement frameworks that go beyond standard clinical indicators to encompass patient-reported outcomes, social determinants of health, care coordination effectiveness, and long-term value creation. We'll examine how organizations are developing and implementing novel metrics that provide more actionable insights for improving care delivery while addressing the practical challenges of data collection, standardization, and benchmarking.

Join us to discuss:

• How are healthcare organizations developing quality metrics that better capture patient experience, care coordination, and long-term outcomes beyond traditional clinical measures?
• What innovative measurement approaches are proving most effective at driving meaningful quality improvements while remaining practical to implement and sustain?
• How can novel quality metrics be designed to support both internal improvement efforts and external accountability requirements in value-based care contracts?
