Measure Health Improvement or Decline

The voice of the patient is too often missing in health care. Physicians can analyze an x-ray or EKG, but they can’t easily measure a person’s emotional state or physical pain. They can tell whether an individual’s test results are improving, but might not understand why a patient believes things aren’t going well.

QualityMetric’s health surveys fill in those gaps. Our generic and disease-specific health surveys, such as the SF-12v2® Health Survey and the Headache Impact Test™ (HIT-6™), measure physical and mental improvement or decline. Reliable and scientifically valid, our surveys are easy-to-use tools that capture the most fundamental information: how a patient feels. The surveys are easy to administer via our Smart Measurement System and can be completed in less than three minutes. Taken over time, they can gauge changes in an individual’s health

You might call us the voice of the patient.

How can we possibly assume we are improving healthcare without considering the voice of the patient?
