Principles of performance measurement
نویسندگان
چکیده
Information plays a central role in the ability of a health system to deliver effective health care and secure population health. It is used for a variety of different purposes in health care: to secure accountability within the system, to determine appropriate treatments for patients, to facilitate patient choice and/or for managerial control. Information also plays an important broader role in assuring governance of the health system. Early efforts at health system performance measurement can be dated as far back as 250 years ago.1 Later, in the 1800s and early twentieth century, Florence Nightingale and Ernest Codman advocated using systematically collected data to inform and improve performance. Yet, because of insuperable professional, practical, and political barriers performance policies were never generally applied.
