A Quantros quality score combines factors such as patient safety, health complications from a procedure, mortality and hospital readmissions. Patients can use this information to make care decisions, according to a Sept. 8 VBA news release.
“As the healthcare industry continues to strive for transparency in both cost and quality, the Quantros quality data is essential for our clients to remain competitive,” VBA President and CEO Michael Clayton said. “Being able to benchmark their results against millions of healthcare claims from all regions of the country provides invaluable insight to manage their plan performance.”
