Kaiser publishes quality data for clinics
Portland Business Journal, March 27, 2008
Kaiser Permanente became the first healthcare provider in Oregon to issue a public report on the quality of care at its outpatient medical offices. The results, which compare clinics on nine quality measures, are available online. The reports do not identify ratings for individual medical providers. The Oakland, Calif.-based health system has posted clinic-by-clinic quality results about one year ahead of a regional effort to publish quality information about Oregon medical offices.
