Chillicothe VAMC Continues Improvement On Analytics Scorecard

Presented By McDonald’s, I’m Lovin’ It!

CHILLICOTHE, OHIO – The Chillicothe VA Medical Center (VAMC) has continued to show improvement with the Strategic Analytics for Improvement and Learning Value Model also known as the SAIL report. SAIL is a scorecard that measures, evaluates and benchmarks quality and efficiency at VAMCs across the Veterans Health Administration (VHA).  It is designed for internal comparisons to promote high quality, safe and value-based health care across all its VAMCs. 

VA Medical Center Director, Dr. Kathy Berger, has placed high priority on quality of care outcomes and the Chillicothe VA continues to work at maintaining that high level of value and effectiveness in the quality of healthcare provided.  The Chillicothe VAMC uses the SAIL report to pinpoint strengths and opportunities for improvement. 

The Chillicothe VAMC recently received the Fiscal Year (FY) 2020 fourth quarter report on facility performance which shows continued meaningful improvement in overall quality from previous scores in the fourth quarter, FY 2019.  Chillicothe VAMC has continued to sustain improvement in 15 of the 24 metrics and have improved in four metrics moving up from second quintile to first quintile, which is the highest quintile. 

The Chillicothe VAMC continues to work at delivering the highest quality care to the Veterans we serve, and the SAIL report is one tool we use to objectively measure our success.
