What’s happening: The Hospital Quality Institute (HQI) is offering a service that provides 95% of the information hospitals are required to report by Sept. 30 under Assembly Bill 1204. HQI is hosting a webinar on April 10 addressing the challenges hospitals encounter in equity reporting and how its Hospital Quality Improvement Platform (HQIP) can simplify this process.
What else to know: The webinar will share practical strategies and tools to assist hospitals in meeting the mandatory health equity reporting requirements. This is the third in a four-part series; more information can be found on HQI’s website.
Enrollment in HQIP will give hospitals access to a ready-to-submit report for the Department of Health Care Access and Information, ensuring compliance and reducing staff workload.
As part of that report, HQI can support hospitals by:
- Integrating data from existing sources so custom data pulls are not needed
- Preparing structural measures based on tested algorithms
- Building the baseline data infrastructure for rate ratios with pre-filled numerators, denominators, and rates
HQI’s team of experts is available through the entire process, saving hospitals time and frustration. To learn more, visit the HQI website or contact hqianalytics@hqinstitute.org.
