Supply Chain Tip of the Week: When implementing total joint replacements (TJR), compare your performance with industry benchmarks

Strong performance data can demonstrate your attention to patient safety and outcomes, which can be a competitive advantage for your facility when implementing TJR.

Data points to measure include your cost per case (case costing) and infection rates and benchmarking your performance with other ASCs nationally.

Comparing your ASC’s performance to industry benchmarks can help you assess whether you’re meeting or exceeding acknowledged standards of care. Two benchmarking tools you can use include HCAHPS scores and third-party sources like healthcare analytics and population health management organizations.
