Clinical Benchmarking System

As value-based purchasing and pay-for-performance only stand to gain more support and momentum, knowing how you comply with best medical practices and perform compared to your peers has never been more critical. ADN's Clinical Benchmarking application equips you with the tools you need to measure your performance and determine where to focus your resources on improvement.

Severity-adjusted data enables you to make objective and accurate comparisons at the overall facility, service line and physician levels.

Get a detailed look at how your doctors' individual practice patterns affect your hospital's performance. See severity-adjusted peer and national comparisons on physician cost, length of stay, quality, outcome measures, and compliance rates of The Joint Commission and CMS.

Drill into the clinical module to identify opportunities for improvement at the service line, diagnosis group or individual physician levels, and quickly see how efficiently resources are being used through the item-level detail.
