Preparing the Assignment: The National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) wa

Preparing the Assignment:
The National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) was formed to ensure the quality of patient care and measurement of patient outcomes with set standards.
Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS) is a performance measurement tool used by millions of health insurance plans.
There are 6 domains of care:
1. Effectiveness of Care
2. Access/Availability of Care
3. Experience of Care
4. Utilization and Risk Adjusted Utilization
5. Health Plan Descriiptive Information
6. Measures Collected Using Electronic Clinical Data Systems
There’s different topics inside each domain. You may access them here: https://www.ncqa.org/hedis/measures/
As an APN, productivity will be an important measurement for the practice to determine reimbursement and salary. Fee-for-service practices will require a set number of patients per day to maintain productivity. A capitated practice will require the APN to have a large panel of patients but also will focus on controlling costs. This can be accomplished through effective primary care that is accessible, convenient for the patients, and has a method of measuring the quality of care.
Write a formal paper in APA format with a title page, introduction, the three required elements below, conclusion, and reference page.
You are now employed as an NP in primary care. Choose one performance measure from one of the six domains of care, i.e. Adult BMI Assessment, Prenatal, and Postpartum care, etc.
1. Develop three different patient interventions for that one performance measure and how you would specifically implement the intervention and measure the outcomes for that particular performance measure in clinical practice. Uses valid, relevant, and reliable sources for each intervention.
2. How would these primary care interventions result in improved patient outcomes and healthcare cost savings? Uses valid, relevant, and reliable sources
3. How can these interventions result in improved NP patient ratings? Uses valid, relevant, and reliable sources
*** Valid sources are scholarly sources, peer-reviewed, no more than 5 years
