Types of outputs interRAI assessments provide
The completion of an interRAI assessment generates outputs that can be used at the individual or organizational level. These outputs include
- Clinical Assessment Protocols (CAPs)
- Outcome scales and algorithms
- Quality indicators
- Resource allocation methodologies (Case Mix Groups and Resource Utilization Groups)
Software vendors have access to the necessary specifications to build these into the software.
The use of clinical outputs (CAPs and outcome scales) informs individualized care planning by providing a鈥痜oundation for creating and maintaining goals of care such as
- Facilitating referrals
- Initiating programs and services
- Doing discharge planning
Used on multiple occasions (when appropriate), these outputs support鈥痑n鈥痮utcome-based assessment of a person鈥檚 response to care or services.
