Patient-Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) are tools that patients use to provide information about their health status, including symptoms, functionality, and overall well-being. Generic and condition-specific tools can be used together to complement each other. PROMs are valuable for assessing a patient's health status and measuring the impact of interventions. Along with Patient-Reported Experience Measures (PREMs), they provide essential information for achieving health system goals. Patient-reported outcomes are crucial for understanding the impact of healthcare services and procedures on patients' health and quality of life. They are essential for gauging the effectiveness of healthcare from the patient's perspective, providing a patient-centered approach to care. Patient-reported outcome measures (PROM) are increasingly acknowledged as valuable and essential information for attaining health system objectives, especially in the era of bundled payment. For example, CMS ties payment for hip and knee joint replacements to the quality-of-life score and patient satisfaction measures, in addition to cost.
Patient questionnaires are essential for gathering important details from new patients, including their medical history, allergies, current medications, and other relevant information.
