A software-based medical information system performs a method of analyzing health care claims records for an enrolled population (e.g., HMO, Medicaid) to assess and report on quality of care based on conformance to nationally recognized medical practice guidelines or quality indicators. The system analyzes health care received by enrollees having a specified health care condition by: providing to the system health care claims records for a selected enrollee population; defining at least one health care condition in terms of health care events reportable in health care claims records; identifying in the health care claims records those enrollees meeting the definition for that health care condition; defining health care quality criteria for that health care condition in terms of health care events reportable in health care claims records; comparing the health care quality criteria for said at least one health care condition to the health care claims records for at least a portion of those enrollees meeting the definition for that health care condition; and developing and outputting from said system a health care quality report based on the comparison and formulating action recommendations to improve care. The system provides an efficient means to supplement claims data with data from patient medical records.
