AQUA IN ACTION Hear Current Participants Discuss What the AQUA Registry Has Done for Them!

Developed by urologists for urologists, the AUA Quality (AQUA) Registry is a national Qualified Clinical Data Registry designed to measure, report, and improve health care quality and patient outcomes.

The AQUA Registry collects real-world data directly from your electronic health record system to help urologists improve patient diagnosis and treatment outcomes. We are coming up on 10 years of experience and have millions of patient records from across the country. Additionally, our patients cover the whole spectrum of urologic care.

We recently conducted interviews with current participants, as well as our physician leaders, to hear how the AQUA Registry has benefited their physicians and practices. We heard over and over again the AQUA Registry can be an important tool in helping you process your data and transform it into usable information. We also heard from Christy Oxenrider, a current AQUA Registry participant, discuss how the AQUA Registry was a “game changer” for her practice. She uses the AQUA Registry to pull in data from various locations, and across different electronic health records, into a single digestible data feed.

Not only that, but you will hear the Secretary of the AUA Board of Directors, Dr David Penson, talk about how the AQUA Registry is more than just a quality improvement tool. Anyone working in clinical trials knows how difficult it can be to identify eligible patients. Dr Penson notes that the partnership between the AUA and Verana Health has made the AQUA Registry a cohort inception tool for clinical trials. In essence, Verana Health can help urologists identify which patients would be ideal candidates for a given trial.
