Abstract
Many respected professional healthcare organizations and societies today are seeking to establish data-driven performance measurement strategies such as benchmarking. Clinicians are, however, resistant to "benchmarking" that is based on financial data alone, concerned that it may be adverse to the patients' best interests. Benchmarking of clinical procedures that uses physician's codes such as Current Procedural Terminology (CPTs) has greater credibility with practitioners. Better Performers, organizations that can perform procedures successfully at lower cost and in less time, become the "benchmark" against which other organizations can measure themselves. The Better Performers' strategies can be adopted by other facilities to save time or money while maintaining quality patient care.
