Many trauma programs struggle with the high volume of cases that need to go through the performance improvement (PI) process. In these centers, program leaders often worry that they making unacceptable trade-offs between quality and quantity.
This webinar takes a close look at a key concept in trauma PI that can help program leadership teams achieve solid results with greater efficiency — selectively using “case-specific review” and “aggregate review” to close the loop on more PI issues while ensuring quality.
