    Check Out the Compass HQIC Hospital Project Impact Report
    The Iowa Healthcare Collaborative (IHC) and its partner organizations, collectively known as the Compass Network, are proud to be one of nine Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Hospital Quality Improvement Contractor (HQIC) awardees. Since September 2020, the Compass HQIC, led by IHC along with the South Dakota Association of Healthcare Organizations, Kansas Healthcare Collaborative, and Mississippi Hospital Association, has supported over 250 rural and critical access hospitals. The program's objectives are to enhance behavioral health outcomes, reduce opioid misuse, improve patient safety, minimize harm, improve care transitions, and lower readmission rates. This initiative is the fourth CMS-led hospital quality improvement program since 2012. We are excited to announce that, through progressive engagement and growing momentum, the Compass HQIC network has achieved outstanding results throughout the four years of this program. These achievements are highlighted in the Compass HQIC Hospital Project Impact Report, which provides a comprehensive overview great for sharing with hospital leadership and board of directors.
