Meet Ongoing Professional Practice Evaluation (OPPE) Objectives
Track Performance | Mitigate Accreditation Risks

Ongoing Professional Practice Evaluation (OPPE) is a continuous evaluation of a provider’s performance and involves a peer review process where practitioners are reviewed by other practitioners of the same discipline and have personal knowledge of the applicant.

Premier’s Quality Enterprise Solution enables acute care hospitals to monitor, track and identify opportunities for quality improvement, practice variation, risk-adjusted outcomes and cost reduction. Use the Clinician Performance Management capabilities to help satisfy reporting requirements for The Joint Commission (TJC)/Det Norske Veritas (DNV) and to track performance for clinicians and groups.

Measure patient care and practice variation across the health system to reduce mortality, complications, readmissions and hospital-acquired conditions (HACs).
