Why is the McKenzie Institute encouraging measurement of outcomes? From MDT Bulletin 2008 Vol. 2, No.3 “After your hard work, time commitment, and substantial expense to become Credentialed or Diplomaed in MDT, the time has come to empower and position yourself to reap some financial reward for your investment. No one trained in MDT doubts that properly applying MDT methods of care across the full spectrum of low back, neck and also extremity disorders will generate superior outcomes. Very few MDT clinicians are currently collecting outcomes. But that will change rapidly with increased reimbursement at stake. Many have been hearing about the FOTO outcomes system. It is not the only way to collect outcomes, but it is a well-established, very friendly, and inexpensive way to do so. It offers many advantages over other methods, including the ability to 1) compare MDT and non-MDT outcomes, since many non-MDT clinics also utilize FOTO, and 2) risk adjust between your clinic and others. At the very least, I would strongly suggest each MDT clinician contact and familiarize and familiarize themselves with FOTO, if only to learn more about what’s involved in outcome collection.” --Ron Donelson, MD, MS, Dip. MDT
