Abstract/OtherAbstract:
To connect practices, outcomes, quality, value, and costs, healthcare organizations must start using a balanced scorecard. A balanced scorecard is a set of measures that reveals the interdependency of the organization, its employees, and its patients. It thus serves as a balanced perspective on the organization for senior management to use in designing, developing, deploying, and directing the strategic plan, consistent with total quality management principles.
