Dana, Rita, Michael B and Michael J reviewed the measures and performed the scoring. Measures earned different points based on how well the met the criteria: 2 points for “yes”, 1 point for a “sometimes” and 0 points for “no.” The purpose of scoring was to identify measures that misalign with the criteria so that the group can discuss if the measures should be retained in the initial measure set. 11
Initially Adopted Measure Selection Criteria 1. Promotes Alignment : potential alignment with local and/or national efforts 2. Actionable and Timely : measurement results are available soon after the event(s) being measured and can be applied by those being measured or those conducting measurement to initiate change 3. Outcome-Related : addresses actual outcomes or evidence supports link to outcomes 4. High Impact : generates valuable information where potential improvement is greatest 5. Endorsed/ Evidence-Based : have been endorsed by a national body and/or there is peer-reviewed research evidence supporting the measure’s validity and reliability 6. Transformative : reflect innovative and transformative practices 7. Appropriate for Audience : meaningful and useful to those evaluating or monitoring performance 8. Data are Readily Available : the entity responsible for generating or otherwise obtaining measurements can do so with currently available resources and with large enough denominators to produce reliable results 9. Supports Racial and Ethnic Equity : The measure can be stratified by race, ethnicity, gender, language and/or geography (e.g., county and sub-county) as appropriate to highlight relevant disparities that need to be addressed. 10.9. 12

Expanded and Revised Measure Selection Criteria (cont’d) 5. Transformative : Improving performance relative to the measure would positively transform service delivery. 6. Appropriate for Audience : The measure is meaningful and useful to those evaluating or monitoring the performance of the entity or system being measured. 7. Data are Readily Available : The data for calculating the measure are readily available and the entity responsible for generating, calculating or otherwise obtaining measurements can do so with currently available resources and with large enough denominators to produce reliable results for the population being measured. 8. Supports Racial and Ethnic Equity : The measure can be stratified by race, ethnicity, gender, language and/or geography (e.g., county and sub-county) as appropriate to highlight relevant disparities that need to be addressed. 14
