1. Have any chart review tools been created that are specific to the HAB core clinical performance measures?  TOP

Sample chart review tools are currently being developed. Once they have been tested and finalized, the tools will be posted on the HAB website (http://hab.hrsa.gov), TARGET Center ( http://careacttarget.org/ ) and the National Quality Center ( www.nationalqualitycenter.org ).

 
2. Where can I get more information about the HAB core clinical performance measures?  TOP

Additional questions related to the core clinical performance measures can be posed to the TARGET Center HELPDESK at 301/443-0067, the National Quality Center at 888/672-7482 or to your Project Officer.

 
3. Where can I get more information about quality improvement?  TOP

Each industry and field of service has its own definitions of quality management, quality assurance, and quality improvement. Keeping with the spirit of the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program's commitment to quality, The Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program legislation has clearly defined quality management expectations, and HRSA/HAB has produced several technical assistance QI publications and training modules to highlight examples from other grantees. Many resources are available at the HRSA's HIV/AIDS Bureau website ( hab.hrsa.gov).

Other resources include the National Quality Center ( NationalQualityCenter.org), the National HIVQUAL Project (www.HIVQUAL.org), both administered by the New York State Department of Health AIDS Institute, and the Institute for Healthcare Improvement ( www.IHI.org).
 
4. How can I provide feedback on HAB's core clinical performance measures?  TOP

HAB is extremely interested in receiving feedback regarding the core clinical performance measures, particularly as it relates to the use of the measures. If you have any information you would like to share in regards to the utility, suggestions for improvement or examples of how the information has been used, please send an e-mail to HIVmeasures@hrsa.gov .
