Demonstration of Person-Driven Outcome Measures for an Age-Friendly Health System

Grant Summary

There is broad agreement that people’s priorities and health goals should guide their care, and yet, existing health care quality measures do not effectively evaluate what is most important to individuals, particularly older adults with complex care needs. This grant to NCQA will improve the lives of older people by developing quality measures to assess how well health systems maintain or improve the health goals of older adults. The project will develop goal-based quality measures suitable for use in value-based payment arrangements in order to align care with what matters most to older people and their families.
