In 2011, AHRQ published the Care Coordination Measures Atlas, a compendium of existing measures of care coordination. Now, recognizing a particularly urgent need for measures for assessing or recognizing care coordination as it is carried out by primary care practices, AHRQ funded development of The Primary Care Practice Accountability Measure Set.
The set comprises measures for evaluating performance in both pediatric and adult primary care settings, including a survey designed for parents to measure the quality of care delivered to their children and a survey designed for adults to measure the quality of care coordination.
