Assess whether to escalate a case to peer review after a quality committee

SITUATION A quality committee asking for a 90-day action plan raised whether to escalate a case to peer review for quality-improvement physician at a 400-bed community hospital with alert fatigue. Risk-adjustment model calibration plot is incomplete relative to that question, so Hold remains live until the file is complete.

DECISION Quality-improvement physician in a 400-bed community hospital with alert fatigue must choose Proceed under protocol / Pause the pathway / Escalate safety review / Hold using risk-adjustment model calibration plot after a quality committee asking for a 90-day action plan.

HYPOTHESES TO TEST 1. Authorize Proceed under protocol now; risk-adjustment model calibration plot already has the discriminator after a quality committee asking for a 90-day action plan. 2. Keep Pause the pathway in force until risk-adjustment model calibration plot is completed after a quality committee asking for a 90-day action plan for quality-improvement physician. 3. Treat risk-adjustment model calibration plot as Escalate safety review because both readings appear after a quality committee asking for a 90-day action plan. 4. Refuse a Healthcare close: quality-improvement physician does not have the decision to escalate a case to peer review turns on in risk-adjustment model calibration plot.

ANALYSIS REQUIRED 1. Quantify who is harmed if risk-adjustment model calibration plot is wrong. 2. Separate a documented exception from an OCR-relevant gap in a 400-bed community hospital with alert fatigue. 3. Validate clinical-outcome evidence and protocol steps in risk-adjustment model calibration plot after a quality committee asking for a 90-day action plan. 4. For this Healthcare Alerts and Bundles file, read risk-adjustment model calibration plot against a quality committee asking for a 90-day action plan and write the one fact that would move to escalate a case to peer review for quality-improvement physician.

RECOMMENDATION Choose Proceed under protocol / Pause the pathway / Escalate safety review / Hold on this Healthcare / Alerts and Bundles packet (risk-adjustment model calibration plot after a quality committee asking for a 90-day action plan). If risk-adjustment model calibration plot cannot force a Healthcare label under Alerts and Bundles, stop. Do not invent missing evidence a 400-bed community hospital with alert fatigue does not have.

COMMAND RETURNS - Bottom-line Healthcare option on to escalate a case to peer review, then the evidence in risk-adjustment model calibration plot, then the action for quality-improvement physician - Hypothesis scorecard against risk-adjustment model calibration plot: supported / rejected / untestable - What changes to escalate a case to peer review if a quality committee asking for a 90-day action plan is later withdrawn - Named option among Proceed under protocol, Pause the pathway, Escalate safety review and the fact that kills the others
