About CQM
The Center for Quality Management in Public
Health (CQM), based in the VA Palo Alto Health Care
System, functions as part of the VA Public Health Strategic Health Care Group at VA Central Office in
Washington, DC.
The CQM was first established with a primary
focus on HIV care. CQM's mission expanded to include
Hepatitis C issues in January 2001. In line with the
mission of its organizational parent, the CQM
mission further expanded to include work on various
issues and conditions with public health
significance, including operational support and
management of data from the Clinical Case Registries
(CCR) software.
