Focus on Health Care Quality, The Center for Health Affairs

Quality improvement has long been a part of hospitals' day-to-day operations. It is a cornerstone of every hospital's mission, and they stake their reputations on their ability to provide quality care. In recent years, insurers have become more involved in healthcare decisions through the rise of managed care, and increasing expenditures have spurred interested parties -- like employers who pay for health benefits -- to become involved in initiatives to control expenses. As a result, the concept of healthcare quality assessment and improvement has begun to garner increased public attention.
