Quality

By working in collaboration with a variety of local and national organizations, we use evidence based guidelines to provide you the highest quality of care.

Mid Dakota Clinic is a part of several quality initiatives and programs. These include but are not limited to:
  • Blue Alliance of Blue Cross Blue Shield of ND
  • Comprehensive Gap Assessment Program (CGAP)
  • Humana Star Rewards 
  • Medicare Advantage Primary Care Physician Incentive Program (MA-PCPi) 
  • Medicare Primary Care First 
  • MIPS (Merit-Based Incentive Payment System)
  • United Healthcare Medical Condition Assessment Incentive Program (MCAIP)
All of our tables below reflect the triple-aim of healthcare, in that we are doing preventative care, making certain our patients are receiving recommended screenings, and improving the patient experience.
 
The IHI Triple Aim is a framework developed by the Institute for Healthcare Improvement that describes an approach to optimizing health system performance. It is IHI’s belief that new designs must be developed to simultaneously pursue three dimensions, which they call the “Triple Aim”:
  • Improving the patient experience of care (including quality and satisfaction);
  • Improving the health of populations; and
  • Reducing the per capita cost of health care.
While ratings provide valuable information, they don’t measure one of the most important elements of our practice, which is the relationship between the patient and our healthcare providers. Whether you’re a new patient or whether your family has been relying on us for generations, we value the trust you place in us. We are privileged to care for you, and we dedicate ourselves to providing the high quality of care you’ve come to expect from Mid Dakota Clinic.
