Grant to help NJ hospitals improve quality of care
Hospitalist Leadership Connection, July 18, 2007
The Healthcare Foundation of New Jersey awarded a $125,000 grant to the New Jersey Hospital Quality Initiative (NJHQI) to help
Hospitals that have scored poorly on the state's report card or the Hospital Quality Alliance's evaluation (a quality data initiative from the federal Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services) will be the focus of the initiative. The funds will support an assessment of quality improvement needs for each participating hospital and will provide resources and training on quality improvement strategies for hospital personnel.
