A number of national studies will be performed
each year by the Solucient Institute to create clinical benchmarks and norms. The goal is
to improve the quality of care for patients across the nation.
Solucient published the results of its first
national research project from the 100 Top Hospitals
Clinical Database in 1999. This study represented the use of traditional
epidemiological methods to measure variances in detailed clinical treatment at
award-winning hospitals and create benchmarks for clinical treatment across different
types of hospitals in different geographical areas. One of the program's goals is to
enable participating hospitals to use the results for community health care education and
to improve the quality of care.
Additional studies will be performed to create new
levels of clinical benchmarking and facilitate clinical analysis and epidemiologic
research across thousands of patients.
