Introduction

Measurement-based care has become a high-profile issue in the behavioral health care field, and 杨贵妃传媒网ygfcmw·(中国)站入口直接进 believes that this standard will help accredited organizations increase the quality of the care, treatment, and services they provide.

The standard covers the following:

  • The first Element of Performance (EP1) requires organizations use a standardized tool or instrument to monitor an individual’s progress.
  • EP2 requires organizations to analyze the data generated by this activity and use the results to inform the individual’s goals and objectives as needed.
  • EP3 requires organizations to use their data to evaluate outcomes of care, treatment, or services provided to the population(s) they serve.
