Outcomes-Based Payment and Health Care

As health care moves to outcomes-based payment, it will be critical for PTs to have access to real-time clinical data to understand how they perform, identify areas to improve quality, and manage patient populations. Without data physical therapists will be unable to receive future incentive payments. APTA's Physical Therapy Outcomes Registry will have the ability to extract information from electronic health records, allowing your clinical data to be readily usable and actionable.
