METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PRODUCING STATISTICAL ANALYSIS OF MEDICAL CARE INFORMATION

A method and system for producing statistical analysis of medical care information comprises: aggregating medical care providers to a peer group level; aggregating medical care information at the peer group level and at the medical care provider level; computing a statistical analysis, such as performing Pearson's correlation analysis; and generating peer group level and medical care provider level results utilizing the computed statistical analysis. Also, a method for producing statistical analysis of medical care information for a medical care provider efficiency measurement comprises: applying minimum unit of analysis criteria for medical care providers to be used in statistical analysis; calculating an overall weighted average medical care information measure for each medical care provider; calculating a medical condition-specific medical care information measure for each medical care provider; removing outlier medical care providers from statistical analysis at medical care information level; calculating a statistical analysis to medical care provider efficiency measurement at each medical care information level using a statistical calculation; and selecting statistically related medical care information to identify medical care providers meeting a desired practice pattern.
