The Volume-Outcome Paradigm for Gynecologic Surgery: Clinical and Policy Implications. Studies over the past decade have clearly demonstrated an association between high surgeon and hospital volume and improved outcomes for women undergoing gynecologic surgical procedures. In contrast to procedures associated with higher morbidity, the association between higher volume and improved outcomes is often modest for gynecologic surgeries. The lower magnitude of this association has limited actionable policy changes for gynecologic surgery. These data have been driving initiatives such as regionalization of care, targeted quality improvement at low volume centers and volume-based credentialing in gynecology.
