National Perinatal Information Center - Team Performance Plus (TPP©)

NPIC/QAS is the data partner for the Harvard Risk Management Strategies Foundation Team Performance Plus (TPP©) team training program. Team Performance Plus (TPP©) is a comprehensive program—by clinicians, for clinicians—that provides interdisciplinary team training, for obstetricians, midwives, nurses, and anesthesia providers to: ensure safer deliveries, reduce the occurrence of preventable errors, and minimize litigation exposure.

A key component in marking the success of TPP© is the ability to demonstrate change through the analysis of the 10 quality indicators and calculation of the Adverse Outcome Index (AOI), Weighted Adverse Outcome Score (WAOS) and Severity Index (SI).

All hospitals participating in the TPP© program submit data to NPIC/QAS for the calculation of the AOI, WAOS and SI. Baseline and on-going Monitoring Reports track before and after team training adverse events. In addition, TPP© hospitals receive a one-year complimentary NPIC/QAS membership with their TPP© contract.

Hospitals not involved with TPP© have the option of receiving an Adverse Outcome Index Repor t as a NPIC/QAS special report with or without membership.

In the News:
Recently Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center was awarded the Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Massachusetts' Health Care Excellence Award for reducing errors. The article, "Beth Israel Cited for Improving Obstetrics Care" was published in The Boston Globe.
