Opportunities and limitations of risk adjustment of quality indicators based on inpatient administrative health data - a workshop report
DISCUSSION: Implementing specific risk adjustment models had only minor effects on the distribution of risk-adjusted mortality compared to the standard procedure, but the judgement of quality of care could change for a fifth of the hospitals in individual indicators. Concerning methodological and practical reasons, the task force recommends further development of risk adjustment methods for selected indicators. This should be accompanied by studies on the validity of inpatient administrative data for quality management as well as by efforts to improve the usefulness of these data for such purposes.PMID:34023246 | DOI:10.10...
