1970年以来美国家庭保健的增长，以及过去5年医疗保险覆盖的家庭保健服务的提供呈指数级增长，突显了评估家庭保健在我们社会中的有效性的迫切需要。这篇文章提出了概念和应用的主题和方法，涉及通过测量家庭卫生保健的结果来评估有效性。提供了一些术语的定义，这些术语涉及家庭保健中的护理质量、结果衡量、风险调整和质量保证(QA)。其目标是提供一个潜在的系统范围的方法的概述，以结果为基础的质量保证，其基础是家庭健康行业和付款人或监管机构之间的合作伙伴关系。
The growth in home health care in the United States since 1970, and the exponential increase in the provision of Medicare-covered home health services over the past 5 years, underscores the critical need to assess the effectiveness of home health care in our society. This article presents conceptual and applied topics and approaches involved in assessing effectiveness through measuring the outcomes of home health care. Definitions are provided for a number of terms that relate to quality of care, outcome measures, risk adjustment, and quality assurance (QA) in home health care. The goal is to provide an overview of a potential systemwide approach to outcome-based QA that has its basis in a partnership between the home health industry and payers or regulators.
