| Popis: | As Medicare and Medicaid increasingly shift to alternative payment models focused on population-based payments, there is an urgent need to develop measures of population health that can drive health improvement. In response, an assessment and design project established a framework for developing population health measures from a payer perspective, conducted environmental scans of existing measures and available data infrastructure, and conducted a gap analysis informing measure development and infrastructure needs. The work, summarized here, makes recommendations for creating a set of core measures, demonstrates some of the key challenges in applying a traditional quality measure development framework to population health, and complements recent efforts by the National Academy of Medicine and others with a focus on a payer perspective. |
