More and more procedures are moving to the outpatient setting. And while this brings a plethora of benefits to both patients and healthcare facilities, there's also a key challenge that needs to be addressed: Adverse events and complications are vastly more difficult to track in ambulatory settings.
In this session, quality and patient safety leaders will discuss a comprehensive approach that allows providers and payers to identify and analyze potentially preventable complications in outpatient settings. The approach is also being evaluated as a potential measure in U.S. News & World Report's Best Hospital rankings.
Key learning points:
- Recognize impact of potential updates to U.S. News & World Report Best Hospitals rankings
- Understand the current challenges and opportunities related to patient safety in outpatient settings
- Develop a roadmap for identifying and addressing gaps in current outpatient safety practices
