Accountability is the name ordsprog

Accountability is the name of the game. The increased emphasis on reimbursement and financial incentives that are tied to performance will place new demands on executives from across the health industry to develop and agree on quality measures. Payers will need to establish systems and processes so that they can evaluate and compare providers. They will need to provide employers with customized data to assist them in managing their health costs. They will rely more heavily on information technology and business intelligence tools to capture, store, retrieve and report quality information.

We can all agree that performance needs to change. The question is what do we pay for - the infrastructure or the outcome? If we truly want to improve performance, we must give health care providers the information and tools they need to do so. Financial incentives alone have never proven to be long-term, effective solutions to health care reform. Changing the actual behavior of physicians and other providers, on the other hand, is and we must find a way to do that.

Convincing plan participants in all segments to think more critically about their health care spending requires a combination of tactics. Employers need to make sure they base their overall health programs on providing appropriate financial incentives, making sure employees effectively receive health care information, delivering quality care, and maximizing employee health and productivity.

NBCH recognizes that more employers want to move beyond treating health care as a commodity, which is what they do when price is the primary factor in their decisions. Informed employers are looking for resources to help them make use of quality and other performance metrics that are now available. The good news is that improving the quality of health care contributes to cost reduction as well. The eValue8 data is one more tool available to our members in determining the best health plan for their business and employees.

Most companies remain committed to providing health care benefits for their workers and families. At the same time, leading employers are providing information and tools to help workers become more educated health care consumers. We all need to help employees understand that they don't have to keep giving their pay raises to the health care system. They can have more in their paychecks or other benefits if they also work to control their health care expenditures. Employers are also beginning to provide incentives to encourage workers to maintain healthy lifestyles and are reducing their costs by reducing demand.

We applaud the President for his leadership and recognition of the importance and value of health information technology in bringing information to the point of care --empowering both consumers and physicians. There is overwhelming evidence that broad adoption of electronic health records and the use of health information technology will improve the quality, safety, and efficiency of healthcare.

We know that our ability to effectively communicate, along with our skills in using computers and other information technologies, are very important in our efforts to improve people's health and well being. With these initial investments in four new Centers of Excellence, we hope to identify new tools, approaches, and strategies for managing health records, bringing together disease information from different places, understanding the questions and concerns of patients, and educating people about ways to improve their health. The more we learn about when and how to use health communication and electronic information systems, the better able we'll be to meet the needs of people in the community.

Today's tracking technologies can generate significant cost savings derived from more accurate data collection. This includes the passive collection of data concurrent with the seamless flow of patient information throughout the hospital experience. The goal when implementing any of these systems should include automatic information collection to allow for improving quality of care, improving productivity, reducing redundancy in processes, decreasing errors, reducing overall operating costs, while increasing rapid availability of essential information, all without placing additional demands on the caregiver.

S. employers. Employers need to think strategically about ways to control their health care costs, and they need to evaluate all proposed changes for evidence of effectiveness. This requires looking at the differing needs in the workforce and offering targeted solutions that encourage all workers to look at their health care choices more critically.

Security is now a major focus of health-care payers and providers. A growing number of payers and providers are moving into an Internet realm for streamlined connectivity across multiple sites, providing real-time access to patient information, which needs to be appropriately protected.

The resources being released today bring us closer to achieving the great promise that health information technology has to improve the quality, safety, and effectiveness of health care. The Connecting for Health Common Framework provides a foundation that everyone can build on. Soon we will see doctors, hospitals, pharmacies, software companies, consumer groups, and others adding to and improving the framework. It is a very significant contribution to the development of private and secure exchange of health information nationwide to improve care for each patient.

This rule makes sure that private health information doesn't fall victim to the progress of the information and technology age, ... where an array of data is readily available in computer systems and too often just a keystroke away from being assessed.
