National Quality Forum Launches Project To Build A Roadmap For Developing Consumer-Reported Outcome Performance Measures
National Quality Forum (NQF) launched an project to create a roadmap to develop digital consumer-reported outcome performance measures that are based on consumer responses to "patient reported outcome measures" (PROMs). For this project, NQF intends to identify attributes of high-quality PROMs. NQF started the project to address stakeholder feedback about the lack of detailed technical guidance that measure developers can use to develop high impact PRO-PMs. Funding for this initiative is provided by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). NQF is seeking nominees by November 10, 2020, for a technical expert panel (TEP).
