PRO Response Rate
50% of patients must have both the preoperative and 1-year post-operative PRO data collected. APU is impacted by successfully meeting this capture rate.
CODE Technology guarantees a 50% capture rate for hosptials impacted by this Inpatient Quality Reporting (IQR) requirement.
Functional Improvement | A Positive Change In PROM Score
A proportion of patients should meet or exceed an improvement threshold between their preoperative and post-operative PRO scores: 22 points for the HOOS JR and 20 points for the KOOS JR.
