Developing an integrated model for outcomes management.
In the complexity of integrated delivery systems, the triad of clinicians, financial analysts, and information management personnel can partner to form an effective force in driving outcomes management efforts. Health care systems can take the opportunity to rethink outcomes management strategies with an emphasis on monitoring cost and quality simultaneously. Advanced practice nurses, with a wide breadth of knowledge obtained through higher education, are positioned to be active, effective team members at all points in the outcomes management process.
