Purpose

The purpose of this assignment is to have students research the measurement tools of NP performance. Through the use of quality patient outcomes, student will list and discuss three different patient interventions and how they would specifically measure the outcomes and h o w these primary care interventions result in improved patient outcomes and cost savings for the practice . In addition, students will discuss how these interventions result in improved patient ratings .

Activity Learning Outcomes
Through this assignment, the student will demonstrate the ability to:

1. Employ strategies to impact the development, implementation, and consequences of holistic healthcare policies using evidence-based practice principles
2. Critically analyze how healthcare systems and APRN practice are organized and influenced by ethical, legal, economic and political factors
3. Demonstrate professional and personal growth concerning the advocacy role of the advanced practice nursing in fostering policy within diverse healthcare settings
4. Analyze social, historical, ethical and political contexts of healthcare policies and advanced practice leadership
5. Advocate for institutional, local, national and international policies that fosters person-centered healthcare and nursing practice

Question 1: Develop three different patient interventions for that one performance measure and how you would specifically implement the intervention and measure the outcomes for that particular performance measure in clinical practice.

Question 2: How would these primary care interventions result in improved patient outcomes and health care cost savings?

Question 3: How can these interventions result in improved NP patient ratings?

Question 4: List and discuss three different patient interventions and how you would specifically measure the outcomes. (From the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) website, discuss three patient interventions for the one performance measure.

Question 5: Develop a measurement tool to track patient outcomes.)

Question 6: How would these primary care interventions result in improved patient outcomes and cost savings for the practice? (Discuss how the interventions can result in improved patient outcomes and cost savings for the practice.)

Question 7: How can these interventions result in improved patient ratings? (Discuss how these interventions can result in improved patient ratings (an NP's patient scorecard).
