Quality Healthcare: Measuring NP Performance



Chamberlain University: Family Nurse Practitioner Track

NR506NP Healthcare Policy and Leadership



QUALITY HEALTHCARE: MEASURING NP PERFORMANCE

As NPs, our goal is to better our patients' outcomes. We learn about interventions that

improve the quality of care and how to implement evidence-based practice. These are important

in providing care, but we must be knowledgeable about measuring our performance. The way we

are reimbursed and paid is based on our performance. The National Committee for Quality

Assurance (NCQA) was created to improve the quality of care by measuring outcomes based on

standards (“About NCQA”, 2021). The tool that is used to measure is called the Healthcare

Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS). HEDIS has six domains of care: Effectiveness

of Care, Access/Availability of Care, Experience of Care, Utilization and Risk-Adjusted

Utilization, Health Plan Descriptive Information, and Measures Collected Using Electronic

Clinical Data Systems (“About NCQA”, 2021). The performance measure that I chose was

Prenatal and Postpartum Care under the Access/Availability of Care domain. I chose this because

out of the 4 million women who give birth in the United States, 1 million of these women

develop complications throughout their pregnancy, labor, or postpartum (“Prenatal and

Postpartum Care”, 2020). Providing access to prenatal and postpartum care is essential to

preventing up to 60% of pregnancy-related deaths (“Prenatal and Postpartum Care”, 2020). In

this paper, I will discuss three interventions, effective on patient outcomes, cost savings, and

patient ratings.

, Patient Interventions

Community Engagement

Communities are great for providing resources and support for patients. They provide

services and local networks through community groups and organizations. Communities can help

increase antenatal care because it gives pregnant women access to resources. These resources

would be diaper banks. Diapers are expensive and it is hard for families to afford them. Diaper

banks provide diapers to families in need and are a great way to ensure that babies are getting

diapers. There are also community organizations (for example, churches) that provide clothing

and baby items free or at a discounted rate. Some of these organizations also have mommy

groups that girls can be supported by throughout their journey of motherhood. According to

Sawtell et al. (2018), it has been found in studies that community engagement helps reduce

health inequalities. As an NP providing antenatal care to a patient at her initial visit, I need to

assess their lifestyle and home life. Understanding what they have and what they need, will help

me provide resources that will improve her care and the baby’s care. These women can feel like

they do not have the support and do not know that these exist right in their community. When we

provide these women with the tools necessary, it can empower them and shows them that we do

care. This may make them more willing to stick to their visits and care if we can provide

services that they need. According to Dion et al. (2021), a study found that women who are

"labeled as non-compliant when they did not access the care system that does not adequately

consider their needs.". It is important to support these women and through the community in a

great way. I can measure the effectiveness of community resources by evaluating if my patients

at risk are compliant in visits and their care. I can measure through a survey and assessing their

social life and if they are using these resources.
