The
HAB HIV/AIDS Core Clinical Performance
Measures for Adults & Adolescents
are being released in phases to allow
for staged implementation. Listed below
are Group 1 and Group 2 Measures. If a
clinical program has no performance measures,
Group 1 measures provide an excellent
start and can serve as a foundation on
which to build. Group 2 measures are important
measures for a robust clinical management
program and should be seriously considered.
The measures can be used by all programs
funded by the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program
and can be used either at the provider
or system level. Grantees are encouraged
to include the core clinical performance
measures in their quality management plans.
While data are not required to be submitted
to HAB at this time, grantees are strongly
encouraged to track and trend data on
these measures to monitor the quality
of care provided. Grantees are encouraged
to identify areas for improvement and
to include these in their quality management
plans. This type of information
can provide rich discussion opportunities
with HAB Project Officers.
To assist grantees in the use and implementation
of the core clinical performance measures,
a reference guide has been developed:
HAB HIV Core Clinical Performance Measures
for Adults & Adolescents: Companion
Guide.
HAB is extremely interested in receiving
feedback regarding the core clinical performance
measures, particularly as it relates to
the use of the measures. If you have any
information you would like to share in
regards to the utility, suggestions for
improvement or examples of how the information
has been used, please send an e-mail to
HIVmeasures@hrsa.gov.
