Nearly 25% of all physicians in the US will get sued for malpractice this year, and over 50% will be sued at least once in their career. In order to gain participation in patient safety, physicians need to know that any information regarding an error or potential error will never be used in a punitive way against them or their colleagues.

Most adverse event reporitng solutions, either paper form-based, or electronic, are typically hospital-based. This siloed approach where the hospital has total control of the data leads physicians to feel if they document any evidence of an error committed by themselves or a colleague, it would not be in the best business interest of their practice, especially without the ability to add context beyond the initial report.
ORQA addresses this concern by managing its own off-site data center and remote backups(no 3rd party), writes its contracts to specifiy that each organization owns their own data 100%. ORQA will not sell or disclose any data to any 3rd party without written mutual agreement. ORQA has no strategic or contractual agreement to share data with any 3rd party provider, payer, or accrediting body.
Partner and affilliated organizations may collaboratively share data on a single ORQA instance as the business culture allows, and rights and relationships may be changed at any time to reflect business relationship changes. |
