To help quantify the impact of ORHP funding on access to health care, quality of services, and improvement of health outcomes.

PIMS is a data collection tool-- developed to be compatible with HRSA’s Electronic Handbook (EHB).

Data reported through PIMS fulfills the Government Performance Results Act (GPRA) requirements, which shares programmatic impact information with Congress.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND

Page 4: An Introduction to the Performance Improvement & Measurement System (PIMS)

The measures in PIMS were developed by ORHP with input from ORHP grantees.

Measures were standardized to allow for comparison across the varied programs within ORHP.

Measures are nationally-accepted.

Grantees use the system to track their own performance.

ORHP uses the system to improve their programs as a whole; and

ORHP can better explain all of the great activities grantees have accomplished by generating program reports with this data.
