Quadruple Aim

A Conceptual Framework

Improving the U.S. health care system requires four aims: improving the experience of care, improving the health of populations, reducing per capita costs and improving care team well-being. HITEQ Center resources seek to provide content and direction aligned with the goals of the Quadruple Aim

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.

UDS+ Preparation and Health IT Considerations - Session 1

Peer Learning Series for Health Centers

 

Disclaimer: Please note this information is current as of 1/18/2023. Please visit the UDS Modernization Overview and FAQ pages for the most up-to-date information about 2023 Uniform Data System (UDS) and UDS Patient-Level Submissions (UDS+).

As HRSA BPHC's UDS+ and other granular data reporting programs approach, health centers are at varying levels of awareness and readiness. The HITEQ Center offered a virtual office hours series to discuss the following:

  • The mechanisms of future reporting via bulk FHIR submission
  • The future state where health centers are ready for UDS+ and other patient level reporting.
  • Readiness processes for future reporting via bulk FHIR submission, including strong data governance, standardized documentation, and mapping. 
  • Health IT and data characteristics of future-focused health centers.

After participating in these four sessions, attendees are now able to:

  • Describe the characteristics of health centers that are more ready for granular and patient-level reporting
  • Point to resources available to attendees to increase understanding of FHIR
  • Identify at least one step to be taken to prepare for granular and patient-level reporting
