Optimizing Patient-Reported Outcomes for Enhanced Quality, Experience and Decision-Making in Health Care
Patient-reported outcomes (PRO) are crucial in evaluating the impact of health care professionals, teams, and systems on patients’ health, quality of life, and treatment outcomes. By consistently tracking PRO scores, health care organizations can pinpoint areas of excellence and opportunities for improvement, as well as compare the effectiveness of different treatment options. This presentation will explore the benefits of PRO measures in health care and provide insights on how to seamlessly integrate these measures into clinical practice. Strategies for interpreting and utilizing PRO data to improve health care quality will also be highlighted.
