title: Performance measurement now.
abstract: We are at the beginning of a significant increase in the use of performance measurement in hospice. Our resources for measuring performance are improving, while our environment is increasingly challenging. It is worth revisiting the goal of performance measurement in order to know your organization so well that you can continuously identify and act on the specific improvement opportunities that will have the greatest impact on overall results.
