The Core Elements of CAH Quality Infrastructure

This Medicare Beneficiary Quality Improvement Project (MBQIP) Virtual Knowledge Group (VKG) webinar will provide a networking opportunity for state Flex Programs to explore the core elements of critical access hospital (CAH) quality infrastructure. Learning objectives include:

• Identify the nine core elements of CAH quality infrastructure and related criteria.
• Recognize how CAH implementation of quality infrastructure will be measured via the National CAH Quality Inventory and Assessment.
• Begin exploring how this information could be used by state Flex programs to inform their quality activities with CAHs.

MBQIP VKG webinars are intended to provide a forum for state Flex Program personnel and subcontractors to share MBQIP successes, discuss challenges and brainstorm strategies to assist hospitals toward reporting, participating, improving, and excelling across the four quality domains of patient safety, outpatient care, patient engagement, and care transitions. Topics for discussion are determined based on MBQIP Data Reports, technical assistance trends, and requests.

MBQIP VKG webinars are recorded and made available in the Flex Program Forum (login protected).
