The Bree is working on building out resources for evaluation planning, execution, analysis, and reporting. Below are descriptions and links to some of the resources and tools we have currently available.
Collaborative Evaluation Tools and Banks
Evaluation Tool Depot
Purpose and rational
The purpose of the evaluation tool depot is to provide standardized tools for evaluation of Bree Guidelines. Bree staff are well versed on the tools and allows us to provide optimal support for your evaluation work.
What will I find here?
This page contains evaluation score cards, evaluation frameworks, and evaluation matrices specific to each topic. These tools will help guide evaluation planning.
NEW! Score Card Bank
Puropose and rational
TBD
What will I find here?
This page contains evaluation score cards for each Bree report, to assess your organizations fidelity with Bree recommendations.
How do I use the score cards?
Score cards can be used to assess baselines for evaluation planning during the implementation design phase. By defining a baseline, your organization can demonstrate changes and fidelity to best practices.
By filling out score cards, organizations can be eligible for Bree Collaborative and Foundation for Health Care Quality awards.
Survey Question Bank
Purpose and rational
The purpose of the bank is to provide sample validated survey questions that organizations may utilize within their evaluation tools to produce results that can be compared with other entities.
What will I find here?
This page contains evaluation score cards, evaluation frameworks, and evaluation matrices specific to each topic. These tools will help guide evaluation planning.
Implementation Guide
Puropose and rational
The implementation guide provides topic specific tools to help support both implementation and evaluation planning. These tools include logic models for how the work groups imagine their guidelines will affect change across the health care ecosystem. Topic specific evaluation tools are provided along with implementation support to help organizations answer specific questions about the success of their project. Other evaluation tools are for general use and will be appropriate for any Bree Collaborative Topic project.

Survey Bank
Purpose and rational
The purpose of this bank is to allow organizations that are planning or conducting evaluations of the Bree Collaborative guidelines to share their survey resources and reduce burden on staff for quality improvement and evaluation work.
What will I find here?
Home gown surveys created by organizations that are or have implemented Bree guidelines can be found here.
Why use our survey bank?
When multiple organizations measure processes, outcomes and impact in the same way it can support better data exchange and improve evaluation validity. Organizations facing resource and staffing challenges can draw from this bank instead of needing to develop them on their own.
- Reduce evaluation development burden
- Use open source surveys designed specifically to be part of a Bree guideline driven evaluation
- Find other organizations asking the same questions and collaborate to create a larger data set
Organizations participating in the collaborative survey bank may make networking requests or be considered for case study development and support.
What will happen if I add something here?
If you add to the survey bank your survey will be uploaded so that other organizations can use them. Administrative data will include the name of the organization that has submitted the survey and the specific guideline topic it was used for.
Measurement Bank
Purpose and rational
The purpose of this bank is to allow organizations that are planning or conducting evaluations of the Bree Collaborative guidelines to share their measurement resources. These resources may include definitions, ICD/CPT code sets, queries, etc.
What will I find here?
Measurement definitions for measures relevant to Bree topics can be found here. Definitions may include codes sets, numerator and denominator definitions, inclusion and exclusion criteria, etc.
Why use our measurement bank?
When multiple organizations measure processes, outcomes and impact in the same way it can support better data exchange and improve evaluation validity. Organizations facing resource and staffing challenges can draw from this bank instead of needing to develop them on their own.
- Learn about other organizations home-grown measures
- Share codes to develop reports
Organizations participating in the collaborative question bank may make data requests or be considered for case study development and support.
What will happen if I add something here?
If you add to the Measurement bank your definitions or other measurement information will be uploaded so that other organizations can use them. This will include the name of the organization that has submitted the question and the specific guideline topic it was used for.
