Limitations of provider interventions in hypertension quality assurance
In an institutional quality assurance program in hypertension, performance of tests, control of blood pressure, and follow-up were monitored through a computer program that was developed to audit records in an automated record system. Two types of feedback previously shown to be effective were provided quarterly for a period of one year to experimental providers. For all hypertensives considered together, there were no differences between scores …
Improving Physician Performance Through Peer Comparison Feedback
A project to improve physician performance in colorectal cancer screening was evaluated as part of an ambulatory quality assurance program. A minimum standard was adopted requiring a digital examination and stool test for occult blood at annual check-ups of patients aged 40 years and older. During a 31/2-year period, three different intervention strategies for improved compliance with the standard were sequentially implemented and assessed: educa…
A Computer-Based Monitoring System for Follow-Up of Elevated Blood Pressure
An automated surveillance system utilizing a computer-based medical record system (COSTAR) was designed to improve the follow-up of patients with newly identified elevated diastolic blood pressure. A population of patients was selected where, in the 6-month period following the initial measurement of an elevated diastolic blood pressure, there were fewer than two visits during which blood pressure was recorded. In a randomized controlled clinical…
Quality Assurance through Automated Monitoring and Concurrent Feedback Using a Computer-Based Medical Information System
A computer-based medical information system (COSTAR) has been used to support a quality assurance program where the data collection is an integral part of the patient care recording activity and, therefore, does not require a separate abstracting or encoding process. This program utilizes concurrent audit to detect deficiencies in patient care, and automatic rapid feedback to the responsible provider in time to allow the provider to correct the d…
