Iameter’s core competencies are providing reliable clinical information and facilitating voluntary quality improvement processes with which physicians modify their practice patterns and maximize the hospital’s quality and financial performances.
Iameter is a physician-founded, health outcomes management firm with almost two decades of experience in producing data that objectively measures and improves the clinical quality and cost efficiencies of hospital performance. It was established in 1983 to objectively assess the severity of patients’ illnesses and was the first company to use coded medical records data and statistical algorithms for severity assessment in lieu of manually abstracted chart data. It was also one of the first companies selected by the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services’ (MCS) ORYX™ Performance Measurement Program.
