Compass HQIC Update February 2023

Compass HQIC

It's the time of year to update the Quality Improvement Work Plans (QWIPs) in the IHC Compass Portal. Each hospital needs to select a minimum of  two priority areas for quality improvement. Workplans are due no later than March 15th.  Please check your inbox or spam folder for a link to set up your IHC Compass Portal account, if you haven’t done so yet. We reviewed the process for completing the workplan during the January KHC Office Hours for HQIC Hospitals.  The recording and handouts are available in our Education Archive or you can reach out to your QIA if you need additional support.
