OutcomeMD proms
Find out how to leverage OutcomeMD to get better outcomes and increased patient volume.

Primary Care

Patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) in primary care allows for the effective tracking of symptoms related to chronic illnesses, and the resulting effect on health-related quality of life.
Examples of common Primary Care PROMs in OutcomeMD:

General conditions treated in primary care
  • National Institutes of Health (NIH) Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) validated person-centred measures to track all relevant symptoms including:
    • Physical function

For conditions that encompass more than one patient area or domain (nutritional wellness + fatigue + stress), OutcomeMD has developed clusters of multiple PROs based on validated medical literature. With our PRO clusters, you will always have a comprehensive view of how your patient is progressing.

The value of OutcomeMD to Primary Care:

  • Improve your patients’ health by engaging them in shared decision-making based on their patient reported outcome (PRO) data
  • Primary care providers value PRO data as a foundation for shared communication regarding symptom burden and treatment plans1
  • Streamline patient visits and scheduling through routine outcome tracking
  • The consistent collection of a patient’s PRO data can guide the frequency and timing of outpatient visits, particularly for those with chronic conditions, resulting in a more effective use of resources2,3
Did your patient have a great outcome? With OutcomeMD, your patients with good outcomes can now publicly celebrate their improvement with ease by posting on their social media accounts (lead generation) and on your review sites (reputation management)!

DO YOU NEED A PROM
THAT IS NOT IN OUTCOMEMD?
We routinely add new, validated PROMs into OutcomeMD to ensure that you can track all patient outcomes that will allow you to optimize care management. If you would like to send your patients a PROM that is not yet available in our software platform, let us know.
Great Patient Outcomes
