The cover story reaches deeper into the concept of outcomes measures (OMs) and explains how they can be used for practical purposes. Several early adopters and Assembly presenters talk about how facilities of all sizes can implement data collection and apply it to the ever-evolving value-based healthcare environment. Also, be sure to check out the AOPA award winners for 2024. This and more in the September issue: https://lnkd.in/evkz_y7k If you couldn’t attend the National Assembly, you can access the education through a virtual registration.
