This is the fifth of a series of best practices studies undertaken by the Performance Measurement Initiative (PMI), the centerpiece of the Institute for Quality Improvement (IQI), a not-for-profit quality improvement subsidiary of the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care (AAAHC) (Performance Measurement Initiative, 1999a, 1999b, 2000a, 2000b). The IQI was created to offer clinical performance measurement and improvement opportunities to ambulatory health care organizations and others interested in quality patient care. The purpose of the study was to provide opportunities to initiate clinical performance measurement on key processes and outcomes for this procedure and use this information for clinical quality improvement. This article provides performance measurement information on how organizations that have demonstrated and validated differences in clinical practice can have similar outcomes, but at a dramatically lower cost. The intent of the article is to provide organizations with alternatives in practice to provide a better value to their patients.
这是绩效评估倡议（PMI）开展的一系列最佳实践研究中的第五项。绩效评估倡议是质量改进研究所（IQI）的核心项目，质量改进研究所是门诊医疗保健认证协会（AAAHC）的非营利性质量改进附属机构（绩效评估倡议，1999年a版、1999年b版、2000年a版、2000年b版）。质量改进研究所的设立旨在为门诊医疗保健机构以及其他关注优质患者护理的机构提供临床绩效评估及改进机会。该研究的目的是为启动针对此程序关键流程和结果进行临床绩效评估提供机会，并将这些信息用于临床质量改进。本文提供了关于已证明并验证临床实践存在差异的组织如何能取得相似结果，但成本却大幅降低的绩效评估信息。本文旨在为各组织提供实践中的替代方案，以便为其患者提供更高价值。
