Surgical illness or injury measures look at a number of different complications that can result from surgery, like infections, operations on the wrong area, or a return to the operating room to correct a complication. We measure these complications to get an all-cause morbidity rate. This rate shows the likelihood a surgery will have some sort of complication. This report is called the all case morbidity report.

Number of Deliveries in Military Hospitals

When you are having a baby, it is important that you have confidence in the hospital you are considering for delivery. Hospitals that have fewer deliveries are okay for uncomplicated pregnancies. Hospitals that deliver more babies are often better for complicated pregnancies. We count and report the number of babies delivered in our military hospitals both by cesarean or normal delivery.

Primary Care Manager Continuity

When your provider team is familiar with your medical history, it is good for you, especially if you have more complex medical issues. Our Patient Centered Medical Homes (PCMHs) help you see the same provider team. Your PCMH team will work to keep you healthy by suggesting preventive services that may prevent more complex problems later. We track this measure to find out how often you are seen by the same medical team. We use our electronic health record to monitor which provider you see. We understand that there may be times when you want to be seen quickly – and don’t need to see your primary care manager. But we want to ensure you are seen by your primary medical team when you want.
