About PROMs

What are PROMs, how are they used, and the Commission’s role in their use.

Patient-reported outcome measures

Health care can be improved when patients share what is important to them and any issues that may impact on their care and treatment. Patient-Reported Outcome Measures support person-centred and value-based care by providing a way of measuring health outcomes from the patient's perspective. 

Patient safety reporting for hospitals

The Commission is working with the public and private health sectors to identify options to align public reporting standards for safety and quality across public and private hospitals nationally.
