Summary of performance framework and proposed indicators
Introduction (1)
Key performance indicators are essential tools for both monitoring and improving the quality of health services.
Mental health services have lagged behind developments of introducing performance indicators.
Introduction (2)
The reasons: unavailability of suitable data lack of consensus about how
fundamental performance measurement concepts should be applied to mental health care
The National Mental Health Plan 2003-2008
Phase 1 – indicators for initial trial
Phase 2 – indicators for development
National Mental Health Report
Developments in performanceindicators for mental health servicesin Australia
Independent approaches of States and Territories
Difficulties for the design of performance indicators
The difference between definitions and specifications of existing State and Territory performance indicators
Performance indicators may be based on: Inputs – the resources used in producing a
product or service Processes – actions or processes applied
to convert resources into a product or
service Outputs – products or services delivered Outcomes – the outcomes of delivering the
product or service. Outcomes may be short, intermediate, or long term.
Criteria used to evaluate candidate indicators (1) Be worth measuring. Be measurable for diverse
populations. Be understood by people who need
to act. Be relevant to policy and practice. Measurement over time will reflect
results of actions. Be feasible to collect and report. Comply with national processes
Criteria used to evaluate candidate indicators (2) Reliability. Validity. Cover the spectrum of the health issue. Reflect a balance of indicators for all
appropriate parts of the framework. Identify and respond to new and emerging
issues. Be capable of leading change. Provide feedback on where the system is
working well, as well as areas for improvement.
Summary of performance framework and proposed indicators (1)Domain – effective Consumer outcomes Carer outcomes Community tenure
Domain – appropriate Compliance with standards Relevance to client needs
Summary of performance framework and proposed indicators (2)Domain – efficient Inpatient care Community care
Domain – accessible Access for those in need Local access Emergency response
Summary of performance framework and proposed indicators (3)Domain – continuous Continuity between providers Cross-setting continuity Continuity over time
Domain – responsive Client perceptions of care Consumer & carer participation
Summary of performance framework and proposed indicators (4)Domain – capable Provider knowledge and skill Outcomes orientationDomain – safeDomain – sustainable Workforce planning Training investment Research investment
Balanced emphasis on inputs, processes, outputs and outcomes (1) Measures of input are necessary to
understand the capabilities and structural characteristics of the organization.
Measures of process are needed to determine whether people receive care that is evidenced-based or conforms with consensus expectations about quality.
Balanced emphasis on inputs, processes, outputs and outcomes (2) Output measures are needed to
understand the quantities of services provided and develop efficiency indicators.
Outcome measures are the basis for understanding whether consumers are improving in their clinical status and well being.
