SAN MATEO, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Nationally over 230,000 primary care physicians (PCPs) and specialists are evaluated based on achieving acceptable clinical protocol ranges in treating medical conditions (or Clinical MedMarker Protocol Ranges™).
“MedMarkers™ are process of care quality measures that are the key services associated with cost-of-care in treating a medical condition. For example MRI of spine is the main MedMarker™ (or correlated service) in treating low back pain. The acceptable Clinical MedMarker Protocol Range™ for routine low back pain is no more than 0-to-20 out of every 100 episodes with an MRI of spine,” asserted Dr. Douglas G.
