Why should I participate

Instead of being mired in an alphabet soup of reporting requirements, CEDR allows for a single data capture to fulfill the requirements of multiple programs, making your quality measure reporting more efficient. The healthcare environment is transitioning from volume-based to value-based payment for care. The CEDR registry will ensure that emergency physicians, rather than other parties, are identifying what practices work best and for whom.

The CEDR registry is developed under a sophisticated information technology infrastructure with ongoing development to support emerging quality needs of both ACEP members and nonmembers. This will be implemented in a phased-in manner over the next few years in terms of the number of participating EDs, scope and functionality.

Through the aggregation and organization of data on clinical effectiveness, patient safety, care coordination, patient experience, efficiency and system effectiveness, CEDR will provide clinicians with a definitive resource for informing and advancing the highest quality of emergency care.
