Patient Reported Outcomes Clinical Record (Previous known as PASTOR) (Tri-Service)

Abstract

In FY2019, PASTOR name changed to Patient Reported Outcomes Clinical Record (PROCR). A Clinical Decision Support tool to facilitate clinical management and optimize patient care by providing clinicians the ability to track patient reported outcome data as patients proceed through the clinical continuum of care. The need for standardized clinical assessments extended to business process improvements, clinical decision support, and individual and population-based outcome improvements by using validated instruments to measure patient reported outcomes and clinical treatment data in the routine delivery of care. PROCR leverages computer adaptive testing scales of the National Institutes of Health Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System to fulfill two essential clinical needs: (1) seamless communication of assessment results in an actionable manner and (2) data repository for clinical research and health utilization studies. Capabilities focus on two care communities: pain-related psychosocial factors & treatment history; and musculoskeletal (MSK) health. PROCR helps meet the 2010 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) recommendation for “performance measures used to determine the effectiveness of the policy in improving pain care for beneficiaries enrolled in the military health care system.”. PROCR capabilities include, but are not limited to: •Create, store, deliver, and maintain patient reported responses to outcome measurement questions •Patient to complete questionnaire with computer adaptive testing on self-entered electronic data device either through the internet, via a patient portal or in the clinic setting •Staff to view the patient self- entered data (i.e., dashboard, visual representation, trends reports, and summaries) •Provide decision support for staff based on data collected from patient (i.e., identify risk or potential problems, summarizing key information, follow trends over time, medication order sets, evaluate effectiveness of interventions). Replaces Pain Assessment Screening Tool Outcome Registry (PASTOR)
