The use of HQI’s updated Hospital Quality Improvement Platform (HQIP) — a quality analytics system that consolidates disparate data sources into a single, statewide platform — continues to increase as more hospitals complete their contract reviews.   

HQI, in cooperation with the Patient Safety Movement Foundation and the California Hospital Association (CHA), creates and distributes quarterly dashboards of publicly available quality data for each CHA acute care member hospital. These model dashboards currently provide information on eight measures and over 80 total measures on the data tab.   

Dreams of a beautiful nursery, the trials and tribulations of being a new mother, and the bond with a new child — for most new U.S. moms, the excitement of parenthood is anything but a pipe dream.  

HQI/CHPSO, as part of their commitment to advancing safe, quality care, are launching a campaign to identify and recruit experts/front-line professionals who can speak on a variety of topics.  

Health care disparities, defined as variation in quality and safety of care by patient sociodemographic characteristics, have been a significant and persistent problem in American health care. Simply put, there is no quality and safety without equity. While California hospitals and hospital systems have often been at the forefront of the quest to achieve health equity, significant work remains to be done. 

HQI Cares: Implementing BETA HEART®, a partnership with BETA Healthcare Group and Inland Empire Health Plan Hospital Pay-for-Performance Program, will expand from 24 to 32 hospitals next year.
