Getting the "CDS Five Rights" Right
Dr. Osheroff introduced the "CDS Five Rights" in the 2009 CDS guidebook. This now widely used framework asserts that, in order to measurably improve targeted outcomes, you must get the right information to the right people in the right formats through the right channels at the right times. CMS recommends this framework as a best practice approach to improving care processes and outcomes.
Though the principle is straightforward, configuring care to get all these dimensions right takes a rigorous approach and effective collaboration.
TMIT services leverage Dr. Osheroff's leadership in synthesizing, disseminating and applying CDS/quality improvement (QI) success strategies he's published in best-selling, award-winning guidebooks and the HRSA-sponsored Guide to Improving Care Process and Outcomes.
The CDS/PI Collaborative amplifies value from TMIT services. This initiative brings together many inter-dependent stakeholders to share approaches to measurably improve targeted clinical measures.
