  • Using the PCF as a common language to describe a process, and including clear definitions on aspects of the process, ensure consistent data collection from all of the organizations that participate and give users assurance they are comparing like processes. (apqc.org)
  • Our data collection processes ensure consistency across organization types and process implementations. (apqc.org)
  • APQC's benchmarking data comes directly from companies just like yours. (apqc.org)
  • This chapter presents the OECD Framework for People-Centred Health Systems and discusses the results of a benchmarking exercise and patient-level analysis that uses existing health data related to people-centred care - across the domains of voice, choice, co-production, integration, and respectfulness.
