Case Study: American Society of Anesthesiologists achieves scalable clinical data registry improvements with PA Consulting

American Society of Anesthesiologists - Customer Case Study

The American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) partnered with PA Consulting to improve its National Anesthesia Clinical Outcomes Registry (NACOR), one of the largest clinical data registries in the U.S. As healthcare reforms increased the focus on quality reporting through Qualified Clinical Data Registries (QCDRs), ASA needed a more scalable way to serve its members and manage growing data demands.

PA Consulting carried out a rapid six-week assessment and then helped ASA implement strategic improvements over the following nine months, including selecting a new scalable technology platform, designing a new operating model, and redesigning business processes to reduce manual work. The result was a robust, flexible registry business that can better meet member demand, support quality-of-care improvements, and adapt to future regulatory changes.
