Profiling is not a dirty word at Sentara Healthcare. From internal practice reports to hospital and HMO data, physicians increasingly are burdened by the information they have to provide to a variety of sources and the reports that come back to them afterwards. Adding physician profiling to that pile would be about as welcome as a mosquito bite. But at Sentara Healthcare in Norfolk, VA, physicians are uniformly happy about a new profiling effort.

While many think the competitive nature of modern health care may prevent rival organizations from working together, two groups that specialize in children's hospitals have proven them wrong by joining forces to benchmark on bed control. The National Association of Children's Hospitals and Related Institutions, an association of 150 children's hospitals based in Alexandria, VA, has started a benchmarking project with Medical Management Planning, a Bainbridge Island, WA-based benchmarking and consulting company.
