  1. UMHS Support Services 2012 Program of the Year: Quality & Safety website Vinita Bahl, DMD, MPP and Kara Gavin, MS On behalf of “Team Transparency” - Feb. 11, 2013

  2. Why create a Quality & Safety Site? • Demonstrate our commitment to providing patients with high-quality, safe care • Lead or keep pace with peer institutions as the industry becomes more transparent • Provide more information than what’s on other sites (USNews, CMS, TJC, Leapfrog, Consumer Reports, MHA) • Be ahead of the curve in the national shift toward pay-for-performance • Make it easy for patients & referring physicians to use quality & safety data in choosing providers

  3. Audiences and Objectives • Communicate quality of care & safety performance • Inform and influence health care decision-making of consumers, referrers, payers and purchasers • Satisfy third-party payer requirements for quality measurement and reporting • Internal awareness of performance • Drive quality improvement through public accountability

Progress to date • Launched April 2011: www.uofmhealth.org/quality • 2,000 - 4,000 page views/month • Nearly 1 in 3 users are on UMHS computers • Well-received by patients, Regents, faculty/staff • Cited on national health blog & regional media • Prominent links and “ads” on UofMHealth.org, on med.umich.edu, and Internal Home Page • Mentioned every time we get a quality award
