QPP Measure #MICS4

Pain, Function and General Health Postoperative Improvement

Rate 1: Change in the calculated score of a validated general health, function, and/or pain score using a standard patient reported outcome survey from before to after surgery. Rate 2: The overall percentage of patients that improve their general health, function, and/or pain scores beyond a minimum threshold for each postoperative interval. Instructions: Patients who undergo a surgical procedure are asked to complete an outcomes survey both preoperatively and following surgery. Rationale: Understanding a patient's mental and general physical improvement, functional improvement, and improvement in pain levels as a result of surgery is an important aspect of clinical care. The general health scores, functional scores, and pain scores that are calculated can be used to improve a specific patient's care plan or can be analyzed retrospectively to modify overall treatment methodologies. Doctors have the option of collecting a postoperative outcomes survey at different intervals following surgery to account for different surgery types and physician follow-up patterns.
