Benefits of Participation
Traditional patient registries often include laborious data entry, confusing technology and little immediate return on effort. The AGA Registry has been designed to minimize your participation overhead and time spent on data entry while immediately delivering valuable tools that your practice can use. Read on to learn how the AGA Registry can benefit your practice.
Improve Patient Care
Monitor patient interactions, track interventions, identify and address gaps in quality of care, and measure quality outcomes.
Manage Patient Populations
Proactively manage clinical conditions for entire patient populations by running reports on specific care criteria. As you enter patient data into the registry, you will be able to generate listings of your patients who are in need of certain interventions or follow-up.
Benchmark Your Practice
Identify practice strengths and weaknesses using the registry's GI-specific clinical data from other practices to compare to the performance and outcomes data of your practice. Run quality reports on-demand, providing clinician- and practice-level results and patient-level detail for all AGA Registry measures.
Enhance Quality and Practice Efficiency
Use the registry data to analyze practice processes and procedures and as a source for fact-based decision-making. Because the AGA Registry captures data over time, it helps practices efficiently manage patient care and demonstrate the appropriate use of resources to payors and purchasers.
Participate in Quality Reporting and Incentive Programs
The AGA Registry is a CMS-certified registry, enabling practices to directly submit data for the CMS Physician Quality Reporting System for the hepatitis C measures group, with the potential of earning a one percent Medicare bonus. Learn more.
