6. Develop and submit quality measures that accurately reflect a quality GI practice and accurately measure demonstrable improvements in quality outcomes for GI patients. 7. Explain how quality measures equate to quality of care in a way that can be understood by the average patient. 8. Develop patient-focused educational materials on the assessment of and participation in quality care; this would encompass shared decision making and adherence. 9. Develop and apply a universal survey device that dependably measures patient satisfaction as it applies uniquely to the practice of gastroenterology. 10. Coordinate and integrate a program of quality initiatives with other national organizations, agencies, and boards.At the practice level 1. Facilitate an increasing awareness of the evolving transparency of quality metrics in the practice of medicine. 2. Communicate that the rise of consumerism will continue to change the physician–patient relationship, in that the patient will have more input and control with regard to the balance between the cost and benefit of various treatment options. 3. Deploy systems in GI practice that are capable of capturing, aggregating, and reporting quality measures and the results of patient satisfaction surveys. 4. Encourage gastroenterologists to be willing to collect, and transparent in reporting about, individual quality metrics and clinical outcomes as they apply to patient care and to embrace change when needed. 5. Develop and standardize simple measures for, for example, patient-satisfaction surveys, quality assurance, and peer review.
