This project explores the development and piloting of a comprehensive Emergency General Surgery Registry at UMass Memorial Medical Center. This registry will provide data necessary for using Analytics to improve care management on the EGS service. Such efforts are critical to Population Health Management (PHM), the process of improving a population’s health outcomes and developing financially sustainable healthcare providers. Although only a small piece of the healthcare system, this registry represents the building blocks of a successful PHM initiative that can be used throughout the system to produce overall success.
