Hospital Performance MonitorSM

Hospital quality can vary widely. To make the critical business decisions that health plans face every day, you need a comprehensive understanding of how each hospital in your network performs. Hospital Performance Monitor is a flexible decision-support tool that helps healthcare executives evaluate hospital quality, prepare for negotiations, benchmark physicians, and more.

Hospital Performance Monitor can be used to:

  • Understand a hospital's quality and efficiency performance compared to other hospitals and best practices.
  • Develop Centers of Excellence, tiered networks and high-performance networks.
  • Align pay-for-performance incentives with quality.
  • Compare severity-adjusted charges, cost, and LOS across hospitals by service line.
  • Understand physician performance for inpatient care in comparison to benchmarks.
  • Model the effect of different reimbursement approaches and contract terms on hospital profitability.
