Process Measures
Captions available
The idea
Process measures describe what is done and how it is done — whether the steps of care actually happened, at the times they were meant to.
In practice
The proportion of patients who received a required assessment on schedule.
Where people slip
A process measure can be met in full while the outcome does not move, which is a finding rather than a failure of measurement.
