QUALITY IMPROVEMENT AND HEALTH EQUITY – SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH

Quality Health Metrics

Every year, the Oregon Health Authority uses quality health metrics to measure how well Coordinated Care Organizations (CCOs) are improving care, making quality care more accessible, and reducing health care costs. Each year these metrics change, but they always aim to address the Triple Aim of better health, better care at lower costs. To see the changes for 2020 CCO incentive measures, click here.
