Draft Guiding Principles for Patient Reported Measures
Overview
WA Health is developing guiding principles for the selection, collection, use and reporting of Patient Reported Measures (PRMs) which includes both Patient Reported Experience Measures (PREMs) and Patient Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs). This work is part of the “Improving safety and quality in health care – A strategic plan for action in WA 2024 – 2026” and the Sustainable Health Review Recommendation 4 priority for transparent public reporting of patient and carer reporting measures.
Once finalised these principles will guide WA Health’s approach to PRMs that are or will be collected in State-wide manner.
Why your views matter
Patient reported measures are tools which collect information from patients about their experiences or health outcomes. These tools provide value to everyone in the health system from the patients or carers who respond to these, to the clinicians and health services that use the information to improve the care and services they offer. Within this survey more detailed background information on PRMs is provided.
This is your opportunity to guide the way WA Health selects and uses these tools at a system-wide level by providing feedback on our draft guiding principles. There is also an opportunity towards the end of the survey to provide your contact details if you are interested in participating in future work in this area.
