As part of our Quality Improvement Organization (QIO) contract with Medicare, Qualis Health collaborates with local healthcare organizations to make measurable improvements.
Each year, Qualis Health recognizes local organizations that have demonstrated leadership and innovation in improving healthcare practices by presenting them with our Award of Excellence in Healthcare Quality. Idaho winners are announced at our annual Quality Improvement Conference.
An outline of our projects, by healthcare setting, is provided below. For more information about our QIO-related projects, please contact us.
