As the scope, volume and complexity of orthopedic procedures conducted in outpatient settings continues to expand, the need for a comprehensive approach to identify and trend adverse patient safety events in those settings continues to grow in importance. 3M’s breakthrough grouping logic allows providers and payers to identify and analyze potentially preventable complications in outpatient settings by specific procedures, services, providers, and facilities, which is being included in updated ranking methodologies from U.S. News & World Report. Join 3M’s Miki Patterson, PhD, NP, to explore opportunities to better understand the impact on patient safety and address those gaps.
