13 Quality in Healthcare Unwarranted Variation in Healthcare 1967 John Wennberg Study exploring Medicare data to determine how well hospitals and doctors were performing. Utilization data from Vermont, Maine & Iowa: Hysterectomy by age 70 20% vs. 70% Prostatectomy by age 85 15% vs. 60% Tonsillectomy 8% vs. 70% Significant variability in delivery of services Could find no scientific research on outcomes of care to demonstrate that one population was better off than the other Wennberg J, Gittelsohn A. Small area variations in health care delivery. Science 1973 Dec 14;182(117): PMID Slide courtesy of Dr. Rob Compton 13
14 Standard of Care The first thing to know is that standard of care is a legal term. It is not a medical term. That means that it is primarily lawyers, not doctors, who use the term. dental-implant-magazine/volume-7-issue- 3/standard-legal-implant-dentistry
