  • Measure Development Initiative

    MEASURE CONCEPTS FOR NEW DEVELOPMENT ARE IDENTIFIED THROUGH ENVIRONMENTAL SCANS AND THEN PRIORITIZED BY PQA STAFF WITH INPUT FROM MEMBERS. CONCEPTS SELECTED FOR DEVELOPMENT ALIGN WITH NATIONAL PRIORITIES, REPRESENT AREAS WHERE THERE ARE CLINICAL AND MEASUREMENT GAPS, AND HAVE THE GREATEST POTENTIAL FOR ADOPTION IN EXISTING MEASURE SETS AND PERFORMANCE SYSTEMS.
