Abstract: After reviewing the environment of cost, quality data collection and analysis, the State Medical Society of Wisconsin Task Force on Quality Assessment and Implementation of Practice Parameters concluded it is critical for the SMS to take a dynamic role in sponsoring the development and use of medical outcomes research. The initial emphasis will be on chronic diseases and health conditions representative of a large percentage of the Wisconsin patient population and involve physicians from diverse practice settings. The physicians of Wisconsin have a singular opportunity to seize the day by supporting and participating in a non-proprietary, regional study of patient medical outcomes.
