How the AIM Measures Measure Up

Wednesday, February 22, 2012
2:00pm - 3:00pm EDT

Presented by Becky Van Vorst, Director of Data Analytics


One of Deyta’s most popular sessions is back with added information. Since the conclusion of the Hospice AIM Project and the release of the AIM Toolkit in 2010, many hospices are choosing to use the AIM Measures in the QAPI programs. In this webinar, we will take an in-depth look at the AIM Measures and discuss how they fared against the National Quality Forum’s evaluation criteria for measure endorsement: importance, feasibility, usability, and reliability. We will also look at which measures have been moving through the NQF endorsement process.
