“…We chose the TAPS-1 screen because of its brevity, the breadth of substances covered, and its validation in a primary care population ( Gryczynski et al, 2017 ), although no studies exist that state the ideal TAPS-1 cutoffs for ED settings. Patients self-administered the TAPS-1 screen due to evidence of higher disclosure rates with self-administered versus interview-administered screening ( Gryczynski et al, 2017 ). Because research shows ED patients have a high prevalence of SUDs ( Macias Konstantopoulos et al, 2014 , Rockett et al, 2003 ), we used higher cutoffs for a positive screen than primary care to target the highest need patient and to avoid overwhelming ED resources.…”

Objective: Implementation of the Quadruple Aim of health care must begin with a clearly articulated set of concepts, or core domains (CDs), that comprise each aim. These CDs can then be operationalized with existing or new measures. If aligned to the organization's mission and strategic goals, these CDs have the potential to focus quality improvement activities and reduce measurement burden. This article represents the efforts of a publicly funded behavioral health system to operationalize the Quadruple Aim through the development of CDs. Methods: Various stakeholders across the organization were consulted on their perceptions of the Quadruple Aim and the CDs they believed should support it. Then, a review of existing literature on core metrics for health care and population health was completed, summarized, and integrated with the stakeholder feedback. Results: These efforts led to the development and adoption of 15 CDs, with an accompanying literature review and set of recommendations of new and existing measures for each domain. Conclusions: It is possible to create a comprehensive yet economical set of CDs and attendant measures that can be implemented in a staged, scalable, enterprise manner. It is hoped that the process articulated here, and the accompanying literature review, may be of some benefit to other public or government-run health systems in their own quality improvement journey to operationalize the Quadruple Aim by developing a set of CDs.
