MIDAS+ TJC/CMS Hospital Reporting Solutions

The MIDAS+™ Comparative Performance Measurement System (CPMS) provides ACS MIDAS+ hospital clients with over 150 fully automated outcome measures and a full range of process measures that can be used to trend hospital performance over time and benchmark performance to other hospitals nationwide.

Since 1997, the MIDAS+ CPMS has grown to include more than 560 hospitals, and currently houses over 100 million patient encounters. Listed with The Joint Commission (TJC) as an ORYX® vendor, the MIDAS+ CPMS is one of the easiest tools on the market to help you meet your current and future regulatory requirements for Performance Measurement.

The MIDAS+ CPMS gives you the tools you need to collect either concurrent or retrospective process data. Plus, you get comparative, severity-adjusted outcome data from one of the nation's largest concurrent databases to complement your process performance data.

"We implemented the MIDAS+ Comparative Data Base several years ago and at that time we were impressed with the timeliness and comparative data made available to us without allocating additional resources for data collection -- moving to DataVision was our next logical step. We have found DataVision to be the 'next generation' of data management, providing us with concurrent comparative benchmark data as well as fulfilling our regulatory requirements. DataVision is not only our Core Measure solution but also monitors our facility performance for Leap Frog comparison and the AHRQ patient safety indicators. Our case managers find DataVision very easy to navigate and now with DataVision they not only have our facility data at their fingertips but they also have immediate on-line access to comparative data. The data analysis and drilldown capabilities within DataVision are awesome!"
