Abstract
"In pursuit of delivering 'the right care to the right patient at the right time,' the Military Health System (MHS) advocates for collecting and using patient-reported outcomes (PROs) to help demonstrate value-based care.1 PROs identify patients’ perceptions of their health, function, and well-being, which can enhance patient-centered communication and guide data-driven healthcare. 2 The MHS recognizes the value of incorporating PRO data into clinical decision-making and has established a number of platforms for PRO collection across health conditions (eg, behavioral health, traumatic brain injury, musculoskeletal injuries). The Military Orthopedics Tracking Injuries and Outcomes Network (MOTION)3 was started as a research endeavor specific to collecting PROs relevant to postsurgical conditions, which later expanded to cover rehabilitation settings and all musculoskeletal injuries. In MHS physical therapy clinics, the Defense Health Agency’s Clinical Assessment Management Portal (CAMP), a digital PRO collection platform, enables point-of-care capture of MOTION-recommended PROs."
