Quality Measures Incentives Program March 2016
About Quality Measures View Point Health's Quality Measures Incentives Program is designed to incentivize staff to maximize their clinical and professional potential, by meeting and exceeding a comprehensive set of metrics. Incentives are provided for staff who consistently perform at a level above what is expected. Through this measurement system, we can identify the areas in which staff and centers excel, as well as the areas in which we can improve.
Quality Measures Language Metrics: The standards upon which staff are measured Tiers: The levels of metric achievement (Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 3, Tier 4 [floor]) Targets: The values that correspond with the tiers Ex. Billed hours Tier 4 target = 65% Scores: The points associated with the tiers Totaled to result in “Total Score” Incentives: The dollar amounts determined by the total score Scorecard: The report outlining staff performance Detail Reports: The detailed data supporting the results Score Incentive 0-24 Not Met 25-49 Met Target 50-74 $250 75-99 $350 100+ $450 Metric Tier Target Score Billed Hours 4 65% 20 (points)
