Clinical Risk Stratification

Clinical Risk Stratification is a method used by healthcare professionals to assess and categorize patients based on their risk of developing complications or experiencing adverse outcomes. By considering factors such as medical history, symptoms, and test results, providers can identify which patients may need more intensive monitoring or treatment. This helps ensure that resources are allocated efficiently and that high-risk patients receive the appropriate care in a timely manner, ultimately improving health outcomes and reducing costs in the healthcare system.
