Abstract
Given the increasing rates and costs associated with inpatient and outpatient surgeries in the United States, performance measurement and reporting provide an opportunity to improve the safety and quality of care received by Americans undergoing surgery and surgical procedures. In the Spring 2018 cycle, NQF convened the Surgery Standing Committee to evaluate two maintenance measures. Measures focused on urogynecologic procedures and cardiac surgery. Both measures received continued endorsement.
