Figure 2: Conceptual Summary of the EPV-QIR Approach

The conceptual summary consists of four text boxes in a row with arrows pointing from one to the next. The first is 'Quality Indicator Reporting,' then 'Quality Improvement Action Undertaken,' then 'Quality Improvement Action Changes Care.' The last box is 'Change in Population Net Health Benefit from Quality Improvement.' Below the boxes is an equation: EPV - QIR(sub S) equals pi(sub Q) * Delta r (sub SC) * MaxPVQI(sub S).
