Clinical risk management programs can modify clinical practices, improve patient outcomes, and have a positive impact on liability losses, as evidenced by MMI's experiences with 250 organizations participating in its clinical risk modification programs in obstetrics and anesthesia. Managing risk in the new health care delivery system is an important strategic activity. With increased patient satisfaction, decreased utilization of resources associated with iatrogenic injuries, and increased productivity of providers, cost savings may be realized.
临床风险管理项目可以改变临床实践、改善患者预后,并对责任损失产生积极影响,MMI与250个参与其产科和麻醉临床风险改善项目的组织的合作经验证明了这一点。在新的医疗服务体系中管理风险是一项重要的战略活动。随着患者满意度提高、与医源性损伤相关的资源利用率降低以及医疗服务提供者的生产率提高,可能会实现成本节约。
