Balanced scorecard for hospital quality.

A hospital quality scorecard brings together measures that are often reviewed separately. Financial stewardship, patient experience, safe processes, and staff capability can all affect a quality objective. Select measures that a clinical and operational team can understand, define, and act on. A process measure, such as timely medication reconciliation, can provide an earlier signal than an outcome measure. Keep the chart focused; detailed definitions, targets, and data sources belong in the supporting scorecard. Use it as part of established clinical governance and review performance with the people responsible for the work. Update objectives when quality priorities or care pathways change.
