Ridgeview Clinics listed as high performer in MN Community Measurement’s annual Health Care Quality Report

Ridgeview Clinics were highlighted as a high performer in the 2019 Minnesota Community Measurement’s (MNCM) annual Health Care Quality Report for above average performance on more than half of the chronic condition measures for which it was eligible. Ridgeview was one of only 12 health care systems in the state to earn this recognition.

Ridgeview Clinics were measured as a high performer for their above statewide average rates in providing optimal diabetes care, optimal vascular care, optimal asthma control for adults and optimal asthma control for children.

Optimal care is measured by the percentage of patients who had a diagnosis of diabetes, ischemic vascular disease or asthma and whose diagnosed condition was optimally managed during the measurement period.

MNCM is a statewide resource for timely, comparable information on health care costs and quality. Quality measurement in health care delivers value to patients, providers, payers and purchasers and the community. The annual report summarizes all clinical quality measures collected by MNCM in 2019 and the measures were developed or chosen for public reporting to address gaps in quality and to focus on community efforts on improvement.
