Within Oregon and across the nation, payment for care is migrating more and more toward value. As funding opportunities for clinics become increasingly based on performance indicators and quality metrics, a thorough understanding of best practices around measurement will become imperative, and each clinic will be required to demonstrate its value.

 

By sharing data transparently with other clinics, health centers will make faster progress on improving outcomes, learn from one another and avoid operating in silos as they work towards improving the same outcomes. The Data Transparency Project will also help Oregon's community health centers develop cultures within their practices that celebrate and recognize data as a integral part of team-based care.

Below are several files that provide more information about this initiative. We encourage clinics to share these documents with all staff members participating in the initiative. For copies of previous agendas, minutes and presentations, please email Akira Templeton at .
