CHARLESTON, W.Va. | FEBRUARY 12, 2024

Quality Insights, a non-profit organization with a mission of improving health and healthcare, is actively seeking partnerships to elevate healthcare excellence across the Mid-Atlantic region, covering Delaware, District of Columbia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and West Virginia.

Early this year, Quality Insights will apply for an opportunity to lead collaborative healthcare improvements under the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Quality Innovation Network-Quality Improvement Organization (QIN-QIO) program, one of the largest federal programs dedicated to improving the quality of health care at the community level.

If successfully awarded in the region, Quality Insights will collaborate and coordinate with healthcare providers, community organizations, patients, and advocates to positively impact care in nursing homes, hospitals, clinician practices, and the community. The organization will support quality improvement initiatives around prevention and chronic disease management, patient safety, behavioral health, care coordination, health equity, quality management infrastructure, technology, and emergency preparedness.

To guide its efforts, Quality Insights will implement CMS’ A3C model (assess, complement, coordinate, create). Staff will assess the healthcare quality and safety landscape, complement existing initiatives, coordinate stakeholder and partner efforts, and create new initiatives to fill identified gaps. By avoiding duplication of effort and relieving healthcare provider burden, Quality Insights aims to achieve shared goals that promote optimal health and well-being, improve the quality of care, and advance health equity.

Sven Berg, CEO of Quality Insights, emphasizes the power of collaboration: “Through strategic partnerships focused on shared goals, we can collectively advance healthcare quality, ensuring equitable, highly reliable care for all in the region.”

Quality Insights invites all potential partners and stakeholders to engage in a constructive dialogue, sharing insights and ideas to shape a healthcare landscape that meets the diverse needs of their communities.

“We are committed to a partnership-driven approach that fosters innovation and excellence in healthcare. Join us in shaping a future where quality healthcare is accessible to all,” Berg said. “We invite all healthcare organizations and stakeholders to share their thoughts and ideas.”
