Getting started is simple

You are five minutes away from the first step in participation. The below information will show you how you can get started without any large investments.

• Start with only one procedure
• Start with only one physician
• Spread out data entry tasks to reduce workflow impact
• Enjoy the benefits of participation in Regional Quality Groups

Choose your procedures

The best practices we recommend are to start collecting data for one or two procedure types, and for a limited number of physicians.

• Lower up front cost
• Provides a gradual approach to training
• Allows you to refine your workflow at an easier pace
• Your colleagues and staff will be much better prepared after getting used to the data entry process with a lower procedure volume.

Once your workflow is refined and everyone is familiar with the system, you can add your other procedure types and physicians as desired.

Attend a webinar

You can learn a lot about participation in the VQI from this website, but attending a webinar is highly recommended.

• See a live demo of the VQI cloud-based registry
• Ask questions at any time specific to your organization
• Learn about the final steps involved in participation
• Get resources to help you present the VQI in your organization

Webinars are held regularly. You can also request a private demonstration webinar, which can be great resource to bring to a meeting, or for a one-on-one session.

Identify your workflow

A best practice for creating a workflow for entering procedure data into the VQI is to spread the tasks out among the various points of patient care.

• Requires the least amount of time
• Provides the greatest accuracy

We can recommend other workflows which may fit well into your organization's existing processes. You can also save up to an additional 40% of total data entry time by utilizing the M2S Simple Data Integration service, which pre-populates patient data from your existing systems.

Attending one of our webinars is a great way to learn more about all of these workflow options, and more.
