VoIPcare qMetrix for Healthcare: An Introduction

Real-time Collection of Quality Metrics

The Problem: Quality Measurement in Healthcare

• Both physicians and hospitals collect quality measures

• A community hospital may collect 1500 measures

• Increasing demand by government, payers, and regulatory agencies

• Time consuming, inefficient, expensive

Quality problems do not arise by accident

As Juran noted: “A principle finding has been that quality problems are planned that way, which means that the quality problems are largely traceable to deficiencies in the methods used to plan for quality. Those deficiencies are still in place. To get rid of those deficiencies we must revise the quality planning process and then learn how to acquire mastery over that revised process.”
