Impact and metrics

Measures that show platform activity and the kinds of system outcomes this framework can support.

This page separates platform activity metrics from community or system outcome metrics. That matters because we do not want to overclaim what the platform proves on its own.

Every metric below is labeled so readers can see whether it is descriptive, operational, outcome-oriented, or illustrative.

This platform connects what happens in real cases to the larger systems and data used to measure them.

Here, that connection appears as platform metrics and example outcome measures that can be tracked without overclaiming causation.

Platform activity metrics

What is currently in the public record.

Number of documented cases
29

Public case records currently available on the platform.

Operational
Number of linked indicators
23

Indicators connected to cases and patterns to show measurable context.

Descriptive
Number of verified sources
37

Sources marked as verified in the record.

Operational
Number of patterns identified
4

Curated pattern pages currently maintained in the platform.

Descriptive
Number of correction requests resolved
0

Resolved public correction requests, when the workflow table is available.

Operational
Community and system outcome metrics

Outcome measures partners may track alongside this framework.

The measures below are examples of outcome-oriented metrics that partners may use with this platform. They are listed here as illustrative measures, not as claims that the platform has already caused those outcomes.

Reduction in readmissions linked to social intervention
Illustrative

Can help show whether support beyond clinical care changed post-discharge outcomes.

Outcome-oriented
Resolution rates of identified social needs
Illustrative

Can help show whether documented needs were addressed, not just recorded.

Outcome-oriented
Time from need identification to intervention
Illustrative

Can help show whether a system responds quickly enough once a barrier is known.

Outcome-oriented
Follow-up completion after discharge
Illustrative

Can help show whether care transitions actually resulted in completed follow-up.

Outcome-oriented
Housing stabilization after discharge
Illustrative

Can help show whether discharge planning and support prevented housing loss or unsafe placement.

Outcome-oriented
Service connection success rate
Illustrative

Can help show whether referrals led to actual service access.

Outcome-oriented
Behavioral health follow-up access
Illustrative

Can help show whether people leaving crisis care or hospitalization reached ongoing support.

Outcome-oriented
Cross-system linkage rate
Illustrative

PRAPARE need -> Z code -> case action -> outcome. This can show whether systems are actually connected over time.

Illustrative
Number of CHNA priority areas supported by case evidence
Illustrative

Can help show where community priorities also have visible case evidence behind them.

How to interpret this page.

What this page shows

Activity and measurement possibilities.

This page shows what the platform currently contains and what kinds of outcomes partners may choose to track with it.

What it does not prove by itself

No automatic causation claims.

Platform activity metrics do not prove system improvement on their own, and illustrative outcome measures are not claimed as achieved results unless clearly reported elsewhere.
