Within Patient Data Console, a quality card is needed. Not meeting the quality metrics can result in a 9% revenue loss on Medicare claims. For smaller hospitals this would be catastrophic. Making sure that it is easier to add exclusions, and address quality metrics within the new pathway would help ensure success! It’s difficult enough for these to be addressed in the current system, so we need it to be easier!
We are actively developing our Quality Measures Intelligence solution to meet the need of seeing QM in real time at the point of care. There are no plans to make a Console card to contain the same information.
If the documentation can be added in a discrete field, the creation of a quality card on the PDC would be fantastic but a data card that only gives reminders without actual data being pulled, this card would be useless.
