That is why I am proud to signify the inception of NuOutcomes — a special new section of our website where you can learn how we stack up in comparison to other health superintendency providers.Ripenedby our quality management staff, NuOutcomes is a frank and self-sustaining viewing of where we have been, and a roadmap of our progress toward excellence. The information is presented in-easy-to-read charts with pop-up definitions that explain what each measure means. We have moreover included links to other prominent public report cards for your reference. And, if you have a specific question well-nigh the information, you can hands contact our Quality team online. The rankings presented are ripened from cadre quality data submitted to the Center for Medicare and Medicaid services and other self-sustaining organizations. They track a variety of evidence-based scientifically researched standards of superintendency that have been shown to result in improved clinical outcomes for patients. There are three important things to alimony in mind when viewing any information well-nigh health superintendency outcomes. Rankings reflect older information — Data gathered by state, federal and self-sustaining professional organizations take time to compile, unriddle and report, often as much as two years. As a result, rankings are a increasingly useful tool for tracking changes than measuring current experiences. However, they do provide important information that can help guide an institution to areas in need of improvement. Reporting of problems is not unchangingly resulting from hospital to hospital. One hospital may do a largest job of detecting and reporting complications and/or infections than other hospitals, making it seem that its outcomes are worse, when, in reality, that hospital is simply collecting data increasingly effectively. Higher-risk patients can skew reported results. When a hospital treats increasingly patients whose unstipulated health puts them at higher risk (which often includes those who have received inadequate health superintendency considering of their socioeconomic status), its percentage of poorer outcomes will be higher than the average. Although most quality indicators include risk-adjustment factors, if the statistical model fails to consider those factors adequately, the hospital may not get full credit for the complexity of its cases. These caveats aside, we do not shy yonder from examining our shortcomings. Far from it. Instead, we have chosen to unshut our doors to public scrutiny, confident that day by day we are working toward our goals. I encourage you to trammels when every quarter to watch our ongoing progress at NuOutcomes.Consideringwe know the journey to excellence is not a sprint, but a marathon that never truly ends.Increasinglywell-nigh Quality ReportsGlossary of Terms »Distinctions and Awards »Quality at the Nassau University Medical Center »Quality at A.
