20.05.12
) And
Quture, Inc. ("Quture") are aggressively preparing to release the first commercial component of their new product line. Quture's new "transformative" performance measurement tool will introduce electronic performance measurement on the
InterSystems Corporation ( www.InterSystems.com ) technology platform. This application will be used to electronically "proctor" the clinical performance of physicians and practitioners for current clinical proficiency and competence to use medical devices and perform specific clinical interventions, and procedures.
Proctoring is a process for peers to assess the clinical capability of physicians and practitioners to use new clinical procedures, either new for them or when they are new to a hospital or surgery center. Proctoring is mandated by the Joint Commission as a published and required standard to be accredited and receive federal funds from Medicare or Medicaid. Until now, physicians have reviewed medical records, used direct observation, simulation, and interviews to assess the competence of their peers to satisfy this mandate.
