Primaris announces new service: chart abstraction for registries

July 31, 2012 - PRLog -- Today’s physicians know that good, relevant data can mean the difference between having a hunch and knowing something about their patients for a fact. Collecting data in one of the many established registries lets modern healthcare providers identify best practices and ultimately leads to healthier patients.

That’s why Primaris -- acknowledged as a pioneer in core measures abstraction since 1999 -- recently launched its hospital chart abstraction service for registries. Current collections include the National Database of Nursing Quality Indicators (NDNQI ®), Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS), American College of Cardiology (ACC), Get with the Guidelines (GWTG) and others.

Primaris’ elite chart abstraction team partners with hospitals to produce timely, accurate and meaningful registry reporting, allowing hospitals to shift the priority of their quality department team from reporting to making a direct impact on quality.

With a chart abstraction team assigned specifically to each account, hospitals can be sure of consistent abstraction. Primaris’ clients receive frequent and informed feedback about time-sensitive issues, such as measure failure and systemic clinical document problems.
