Overview

Through the data validation process, valuable information is gained that can then be used to improve performance around patient care or quality of care metrics.  Improving quality performance may take the form of improving data collection processes, better identifying patients who need additional interventions, or decreasing missed opportunities to provide patients appropriate interventions, among other possibilities. This section includes guidance on leveraging Health IT to improve quality performance including change packages for recommended approaches related to various quality of care measures.

Million Hearts Hypertension Control Change Package

A Hypertension Control Change Package for Clinicians

The Hypertension Control Change Package for Clinicians (HCCP) presents a listing of process improvements that health center settings can implement as they seek optimal hypertension (HTN) control. It is composed of change concepts, change ideas, evidence- or practice-based tools and resources. Change concepts are general notions that are useful in the development of more specific ideas for changes that lead to improvement. Change ideas are actionable, specific ideas for changing a process.

Change ideas can be rapidly tested on a small scale to determine whether they result in improvements in the local environment. With each change idea the HCCP lists evidence- or practice-based tools and resources that can be adapted or adopted in a healthcare setting to improve HTN control.
