In 2021, Cabrini Health and Alfred Health launched a pioneering program in Melbourne to collect and use patient-reported outcomes (PROMs) for people undergoing colorectal cancer surgery. Funded by Let’s Beat Bowel Cancer, the Margaret Walkom Trust, and the Collie Foundation, this initiative integrates the Cabrini Monash Colorectal Neoplasia Database with ZEDOC—a cloud-based PROMs platform from The Clinician—to automate the collection and analysis of the ICHOM Colorectal Cancer Standard Set.

Led by Prof Paul McMurrick, Mr Peter Carne, and Dr Christine Georges, the program links clinical outcomes and tissue data to understand quality of life and functional recovery while supporting personalised, value-based care. To date, more than 200 patients have participated with around 80 % engagement.

In this session, speakers will cover:

Why and how the program was implemented, leadership and cultural change
Integrating PROMs into workflow and engaging clinicians and patients
Building an economic case for VBHC and linking costs to outcomes
Results achieved, key challenges, and lessons learned
The future roadmap for scaling and benchmarking across Australia and beyond

Speakers include:


Christine Georges MD, Project Coordinator, Cabrini Health, Australia		Paul McMurrick PhD, Colorectal Surgeon, Malvern, and Senior Lecturer in Surgery, Cabrini Health, Australia


Yasmine Saoud PhD, Project Manager, ICHOM

Our patients trust HSS with what matters most: their mobility, their independence, and their future. ICHOM accreditation affirms our commitment to listening to patients, measuring the outcomes that impact their lives, and ensuring every step forward in orthopedics delivers true value.”

Mathias Bostrom,
MD, FACS, Associate Surgeon-in-Chief & Director, Quality & Safety
Hospital for Special Surgery

Implementing Value-Based Healthcare (VBHC) in our department has transformed not only how we deliver care, but how we learn from our patients every single day.
Through this model, we have built a culture where patients’ experiences, expectations, and priorities directly shape our clinical decisions. This has empowered us to strengthen patient education, encourage continuous learning, and ensure every woman fully understands her health journey.

We now detect chronic and complex conditions earlier, intervene sooner, and help our patients achieve improved long-term health results.

One of the most meaningful changes has been the way VBHC enhanced doctor–patient communication. Our team has become more attentive, more collaborative, and more committed to shared decision-making—ensuring patients feel heard, respected, and confident in their care.

VBHC has also strengthened our internal organization and interdepartmental coordination, creating a more reliable, efficient, and patient-centered workflow.

I am proud that this journey has also elevated our physicians’ skills in interpreting clinical data, analyzing outcome indicators, and connecting evidence-based metrics with everyday patient care.

For us, VBHC is more than a framework—it reflects our commitment to learning from patients, empowering patients through education, and delivering compassionate, high-value care.

And I remain fully committed to advancing this model across all women’s health services in our department.

A core component of this transformation has been the integration of patient education and patient-derived insights into routine clinical practice. By systematically learning from our patients through PROMs, PREMs, and direct feedback, the department has strengthened shared decision-making and enhanced health literacy among the women we serve.

The model has also improved communication between clinicians and patients, contributing to higher satisfaction, greater trust, and more active patient participation in treatment planning.”

Patient Impact Stories

“After a lot of miscarriages in my life even with Assisted Reproductive Technology with no babies at all in 10-year marriage, I became very anxious all the time of miscarriage and losing the baby once again. When I got pregnant this time, Dallah team from Ob-Gyn department was in close contact with me, sending me frequent questionnaires, following up on my answers via phone, providing the psychological support I need, booking me the required appointments with top-notch doctors in the obstetrics department”

Defining What Matters After Major Injury: Introducing the ICHOM Major Injury Outcome Set

11 December 2025
09:00 EDT | 14:00 GMT | 15:00 CET

REGISTER NOW

Major injury is a leading cause of death and disability worldwide, yet the outcomes that matter most to patients are rarely measured consistently. To close this gap, ICHOM has created a Major Injury (MJI) Outcome Set, developed through a rigorous, international, and multidisciplinary process.

Join us for this FREE webinar that will explore the Set, its development process, and how it can be implemented across diverse health systems, from high-resource trauma centres to low- and middle-income settings.

You will learn:

Why measuring outcomes beyond mortality is crucial to improving trauma care
The global gaps in trauma outcome measurement and how this Set aims to address them
How ICHOM’s standardized methodology and an international Working Group shaped the Major Injury Outcome Set
Key decisions, challenges, and external validation efforts involved in its development
Practical insights on implementation, early pilot efforts, and how the Set can be applied in research, clinical practice, and rehabilitation
Where to access free resources, guidance materials, and IT-ready versions of the Set

Journey to Accreditation

In 2020, we designed our hybrid diabetes program around the ICHOM Standard Set, embedding value-based care and continuous outcome measurement from the start. By 2022, we became the world’s first healthcare provider officially accredited by ICHOM for delivering continuous, data-driven, patient-centered diabetes care.

Saudi German Health’s journey with value-based healthcare began just three years ago, and in that short time, the achievements have been remarkable. One of our biggest milestones was becoming the first hospital in Saudi Arabia to achieve ICHOM Level 1 Accreditation.

A key example of this transformation is our work in R City, where we established an integrated practice unit focused on low back pain. By implementing the ICHOM outcome set for low back pain, we translated it into real-world practice—measuring patient outcomes, taking improvement actions, and integrating care across multiple stakeholders. Over time, we began to see significant improvements in patient outcomes, demonstrating the true impact of value-based healthcare in action.”

Dr. Mohammed Hussein,
Director of VBHC,
Saudi German Health

We’ve introduced a novel hybrid care model for the management of cardio-metabolic diseases, which we believe is vastly superior to traditional or digital-only care models. In order to prove that, we designed our facility from Day 1 to be able to collect data seamlessly and report our outcomes transparently. We are honored that we became the first facility globally to receive the ICHOM certification for practicing value based healthcare, an important testament to our efforts in promoting radical transparency in our industry”

Dr Ihsan Almarzooqi,
Co-Founder,
GluCare Health

As pioneers, starting first in Thailand, implementing the ICHOM Accreditation Program has been crucial. Having a peer review process or professional guidance to reflect back to us has been invaluable. It’s a way to achieve faster, better progress.

For us, accreditation is not just a reward – it’s a tool, a guide that helps us move forward into the future while delivering value to the patient. This is why we seek ongoing feedback from the accreditation process, continuously improving and refining as we develop further.”
