Prior to the newer and more complex regulations affecting behavioral healthcare (BH) providers today, there was a serious gap in the measurement of BH performance. This included a strong lack of evidence regarding care, poorly defined quality measurements and an absence of linked electronic health record data. Now that incentive and payment plans have paved the way for enhanced and frequent reporting, BH providers are tasked with examining key performance areas and continually working on ways to leverage their data.
While the benefits of enhanced reporting are endless, here are five big reasons why capturing outcomes data is crucial in behavioral healthcare:
Data is a vital corporate asset and will only remain as such if your employees know what data to leverage and where to find it. In order to fully democratize your organization and its data, be sure to have the correct tools in place to cultivate and manage your knowledge sharing. For most, this means relying on a powerful, second-generation EHR platform that has the flexibility to adapt to incoming changes and ease associated workflows.
