The seven endorsed guidelines are intended for use by organizations that sponsor and publish reports such as federal and state governments, consumer organizations, hospital accreditors, business coalitions, and hospital associations. They are to be used for reporting hospital quality performance, but can also be adapted for reporting care in other settings.
