Description

In this podcast, we take a deep dive into a quality measure that summarizes everything that is wrong with using them to improve health: “BMI Screening and Follow-Up Plan.” I will show you how this quality measure gives the impression of “taking action,” does not solve the underlying problem, and increases "busywork" for busy front-line physicians.
