AFHTO members have just released the 7^th iteration of their performance measurement report, Data to Decisions 5.1. Voluntary participation in team-level measurement remains high. 90% of members have contributed so far, with over 60% in D2D 5.1. This makes D2D 5.1 a unique picture of primary care across the province, at the LHIN level, and (for the second time) at the sub-region level.

The results are in for D2D 5.0. As usual, AFHTO members have full access to all the data through the interactive report. A summary of performance at the province and LHIN levels is available on AFHTO’s public web page. Some of the highlights from this most recent release of D2D are listed below.

From the Patient Priorities Questionnaire, we learned a lot about what matters most to patients when it comes to their relationships and their primary care providers, but we want to dig deeper. We also want to hear from them about how we should find out, because we know many of them found the survey lengthy and tedious.

Today’s release of Data to Decisions (D2D) 4.1 contains early signals that variation in performance between teams is decreasing.  Reducing variation is an important goal in quality improvement.

The EMR queries below were  developed by QIDSS and the EMR Communities of Practice to help you extract data for submission to D2D.
