In a report issued in 1998, the President's Advisory Commission on Consumer Protection and Quality in the Health Care Industry proposed creation of a voluntary, private sector entity to develop and implement effective, efficient, and coordinated strategies for ensuring the widespread availability of valid and reliable information on quality for use by all healthcare stakeholders. The National Forum for Health Care Quality Measurement and Reporting (National Quality Forum, or NQF) was established in 1999, with a mission to improve healthcare quality by deploying a strategy to standardize the means by which healthcare quality data are measured and reported, and to ensure that healthcare quality data are widely available. By deliberate design, the NQF gives equal voice to consumers, healthcare purchasers, health plans and providers, and quality improvement and research organizations. Together NQF members work to promote a common approach to foster statewide capacity for quality improvement. The purpose of the NQF Annual Meeting is to: 1) foster a sense of common purpose and develop a shared framework for developing, implementing, and reporting consistent measures of the quality of care across consumers, purchasers, and providers of healthcare; 2) disseminate information and share experiences and concerns about the implementation of quality measures and evidence- based "best practices" to improve quality; 3) link research to practice with an emphasis on issues that relate to feasibility and the use of measures after development; and 4) identify important areas for future research relating to the development, testing, implementation, and reporting of quality measures. The third annual meeting will focus primarily on the status of NQF projects and the implementation and follow up that will result from the approval of the corresponding consensus reports. Next steps will also be discussed for the NQF approved Strategic Framework Board report.

在1998年发布的一份报告中，医疗保健行业消费者保护和质量总统咨询委员会建议建立一个自愿的私营部门实体，以制定和实施有效、高效和协调的战略，确保广泛获得有效和可靠的质量信息，供所有医疗保健利益相关者使用。全国医疗保健质量测量和报告论坛（National Quality Forum，简称NQF）成立于1999年，其使命是通过部署一项战略来标准化衡量和报告医疗保健质量数据的方法，并确保医疗保健质量数据的广泛可用性，从而提高医疗保健质量。通过精心设计，NQF为消费者、医疗保健购买者、健康计划和提供者以及质量改进和研究组织提供了平等的发言权。NQF成员共同努力，促进一种共同的方法，以培养全州范围内的质量改进能力。NQF年会的目的是：1)培养共同目标感，并制定一个共享框架，以制定、实施和报告医疗保健消费者、购买者和提供者之间一致的医疗质量衡量标准；2)传播信息，分享实施质量措施和基于证据的“最佳实践”的经验和关注，以提高质量；3)将研究与实践联系起来，重点关注与开发后措施的可行性和使用有关的问题；4)确定与质量度量的开发、测试、实施和报告相关的未来研究的重要领域。第三届年会将主要关注核安全基金项目的现状以及相应协商一致报告获得批准后的实施和后续行动。下一步还将讨论NQF批准的战略框架委员会报告。
