QCMetrix

QCMetrix has been a pioneer in the collection and use of validated clinical data for surgical quality improvement. In 2001, we were engaged by the leaders of the Veterans Administration's National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (VA NSQIP) to help bring the NSQIP to non-VA and private sector hospitals. After a three-year, $5.6M AHRQ-funded stu... dy to validate the program and the QCMetrix platform for the private sector, American College of Surgeons NSQIP (ACS NSQIP) was born. QCMetrix enabled the growth and development of the ACS NSQIP from 2001-2010. Today, QCMetrix is enabling the growth and development of the Michigan Surgical Quality Collaborative. The Michigan Surgical Quality Collaborative (MSQC) saved the state of Michigan $85.9 million over 2 years . Since our earliest days, we have enabled thought leaders to realize their visions. And to help them make the business case for their ideas. We are working with the next generation of innovators in areas such as pre-habilitation, real-time prediction of a patient's surgical risks of complication, and managing patient's quality of life after surgery. QCMetrix is the direct recipient of over $3M in NIH research grants for developing analytic tools for predicting: Patient-specific expected Hospital Length of Stay; and Patient-specific risks of surgical complications, "Decision Support for Safer Surgery"Read More
