Measure Plan Performance Against Industry Standards

HDMS CareShieldSM applies evidence-based quality measures to DART health care data to identify gaps between observed patient care in compliance with treatment guidelines.

CareShield integrates clinically relevant scientific research about effectiveness of various treatments in making decisions about the care of the individual patient.

This solution can be applied to improve physician compliance with treatment guidelines and member compliance with prescribed treatments in order to improve clinical outcomes. Reports also provide detailed information on patients needing services for possible intervention.

Guideline compliance also can be measured across population segments, providers, groups, clinical conditions, and many more units of analysis.

Guideline compliance is available by:

Subject areas, such as women's health, pediatrics, adult screenings, and disease management.

Measure types, such as prevention and screening, chronic and acute clinical conditions, drug therapies, and patient safety.

Provider as unit of analysis, such as primary care physician (assigned and/or imputed) and treating physician.
