Session Description: This session is designed for the professional with experience and expertise in either creating, reviewing, or interpreting outcomes reports. Recently CE Outcomes conducted a survey to gain perspectives of IME professionals to better understand perspectives on the quality and challenges associated with outcomes reports. This data was presented at a 2023 AIS session entitled “HOW FAR HAVE WE COME? FIVE YEARS AFTER A CALL-TO-ACTION FOR OUTCOMES STANDARDIZATION”. The survey gained insights into the most problematic issues that IME supporters perceive in the outcomes reports received. The top issues that were reported were “Data dump, no interpretation or clinical context” and “poor question writing”.
Learning Objectives:
Critically evaluate outcomes questions and apply best practices for writing questions to gather meaningful outcomes data
Identify limitations of outcomes reporting template and employ techniques for create a meaningful outcomes summary
Effectively manage common challenges in outcomes data
