Improving quality of care through the OECD Patient Reported Indicator Surveys (PaRIS)

The OECD Patient-Reported Indicator Surveys (PaRIS) demonstrate the value of patient-reported outcomes and experiences in strengthening people-centred primary care. Drawing on evidence from the 19 countries which participated in the first cycle of PaRIS, the report shows how results are already informing reforms in care co-ordination, digital health and quality monitoring. The report highlights key enablers such as early engagement, clear governance, communication planning and sustained investment to integrate patient-reported outcome and experience measures (PROMs and PREMs) into healthcare system performance assessment.
