Good morning,
On April 12, a draft document was submitted to the Colorado Health Care Affordability and Sustainability Enterprise (CHASE) Board outlining a general framework for how hospitals will be evaluated on identified measures for the Hospital Transformation Program. The recommendations for quality measures scoring contained in the draft are intended to guide and inform the decision-making process to finalize the program framework. The process for finalizing this proposal will include collaboration and input from key stakeholders including the Department of Health Care Policy & Financing, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, the CHASE Board, the Colorado Hospital Association, participating hospitals, and broader stakeholders participating in the program.
The Department is recommending measure scoring for the HTP include a combination of statewide measures for all hospitals statewide, and local measures selected by each individual hospital to align with their improvement priorities and community needs. A detailed explanation of measure scoring can be found in the
Scoring Framework Proposal
