Developed by UHC and the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC),

the Faculty Practice Solutions Center (FPSC) provides a suite of robust
comparative data and reporting tools to help faculty practice organizations identify
opportunities to increase the efficiency and productivity of clinical practice. The
FPSC's web-based tools provide actionable comparative data in the areas of
clinical performance (measure and manage clinical activity, understand visit mix,
optimize practice yield, monitor coding compliance and improve charge capture)
and revenue cycle management (reduce and prevent denials, ensure maximal
collections, improve timeliness of collections, reduce days in accounts receivable,
and identify undercharges).
In collaboration
with UHC and the AAMC, FPSC members have access to the largest informal
networking collaborative on group reporting. The collaborative provides
benchmark data on academic performance related to PQRS GPRO. This
information has been used to better understand quality, cost and utilization in

The MPSMS is a nationwide surveillance system designed to identify rates of

specific adverse events within the hospitalized fee-for-service Medicare population.
An adverse event is defined as an unintended patient harm, injury or loss more
likely associated with the patient's interaction with the health care delivery system
than from diseases the patient may have. The surveillance system identifies
retrospectively adverse events from randomly selected inpatient Medicare
discharges and administrative data. MPSMS is a primary source of data for the
Medicare Patient Safety AHRQs annual National Healthcare Quality Report (NHQR) and the National
1031 Monitoring System (MPSMS) Healthcare Disparities Report (NHDR) mandated by Congress.

The Outcome and Assessment Information Set (OASIS) is a group of data

elements that form the basis for measuring patient outcomes for purposes of
outcome-based quality improvement. Since 1999, CMS has required Medicare-
certified home health agencies to collect and transmit OASIS data for all adult
patients whose care is reimbursed by Medicare and Medicaid with the exception of
Outcome and Assessment patients receiving pre- or postnatal services only. Since 2008, OASIS includes
1051 Information Set (OASIS) process data items as well as outcome data items.

Links two large population-based sources of data that provide detailed information
about Medicare beneficiaries with cancer. The data come from the Surveillance,
Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) program of cancer registries that collect
clinical, demographic and cause of death information for persons with cancer and
the Medicare claims for covered health care services from the time of a person's
Medicare eligibility until death. The SEER program collects information about
cancer site, stage, and histology for persons newly diagnosed with cancer who
reside in one of the SEER geographic areas. Medicares master enrollment file is
used to identify which persons in the SEER data are Medicare beneficiaries. For
people who are Medicare eligible, the SEER-Medicare data include claims for
SEER-Medicare Linked covered health care services, including hospital, physician, outpatient, home
1076 Database health, and hospice bills.

The Leapfrog Hospital Survey looks at hospital quality and safety, focusing on
hospital structures, processes of care, and outcomes. Hospitals voluntarily self-
1080 The Leapfrog Hospital Survey report their status on patient safety and safety of selected procedures.
The Clinical Data Base (CDB) is a web-enabled resource that consists of two main
portals: the Report EXPRESS and the Report BUILDER. Submitted on a monthly
basis, data are passed through UHCs robust editing and proprietary risk
adjustment methodologies. Upon acceptance, data is used to populate up to three
UHC database products, depending on the level of participation, including Clinical
Data Base, Core Measures and Resource Manager. Databases are generally
populated within 24 48 hours of receipt. Member hospitals can begin submitting
data as early as two weeks after the close of a month, but typically participants
submit 30 days after the close of each month. The Clinical Data Base provides an
expanded set of comparative data and analytic tools to support the clinical
operations of member institutions. Opportunities for improvement are identified by
combining patient encounter level and line-item transactional detail to yield
information on patient outcomes. Users also have access to a portal called The
Physician Insight Tool which allows users to create by-physician reports. This
functionality permits a user to profile physicians and benchmark internally or
externally on over the same 100 variables found in the CDB. Users can run reports
for individual physicians and groups of physicians with the ability to benchmark
1081 UHC Clinical Data Base against two internal or two external comparison groups.

In addition to the CDB, which can be used for outcome and comparative reporting,
the Resource Manager (CDB-RM) database provides additional capabilities
necessary to track data needed for evaluating resource utilization and associated
outcomes at a greater depth. The CDB-RM application builds upon the CDB
foundation to provide line-item information in pharmacy, blood products, imaging
and diagnostics, accommodations (for all unit types, including intensive care,
cardiac care, and step-down units), laboratory, medical/surgical supplies.
Hospitals use this information to standardize resource use, identify trends in
practice patterns, and advance cost management initiatives. More broadly, users
can view detailed resource utilization for patient encounters, including estimated
1083 UHC Resource Manager drug costs and product and accommodation use.
