title: Outcomes management. A role for everyone.
abstract: In summary, many persons have an impact on the outcomes of care and services, although some are more directly involved in day-to-day clinical care; whereas others are in support roles more removed from the clinical area. To manage outcomes effectively and ensure quality care, key stakeholders must be active participants, and an infrastructure must be in place to support the entire effort.
