DESCRIPTION (PROVIDED BY APPLICANT): Public and private sector leaders moved to create the National Quality Forum (NQF) in late 1999 out of a shared sense of urgency about the need for valid, reliable, and standardized healthcare performance measures to support and advance public accountability, quality improvement efforts, increased patient safety, and value-based purchasing. Currently, NQF has over 350 members reflecting broad participation from all parts of the healthcare system. Largely through the efforts of NQF, standardized healthcare quality performance measures are becoming available for use at both the local and national levels and through all care settings. With the increased adoption of NQF-endorsed(tm) voluntary consensus standards, dialogue and collaboration among all healthcare stakeholders has become increasingly critical. NQF's Annual National Policy Conference has become an opportunity for healthcare stakeholders and leaders to come together to learn about the latest developments in healthcare quality and to discuss the challenges and opportunities in implementing NQFendorsed voluntary consensus standards. A focus of the 9th Annual National Policy Conference is the policy levers than can be deployed to advance the attainment of national priorities improvement goals to specified changes in the delivery system through system redesign, efficiency dashboards, payment reforms, and the spread of research and best practices.

描述（由申请人提供）：出于对有效、可靠和标准化的医疗绩效衡量标准的共同紧迫感，公共和私营部门的领导人在1999年底创建了国家质量论坛（NQF），以支持和推进公共问责制、质量改进工作、增加患者安全和基于价值的采购。目前，NQF有350多名成员，反映了医疗保健系统各个部分的广泛参与。在很大程度上，通过国家质量基金的努力，标准化的医疗保健质量绩效衡量标准正在地方和国家各级以及所有医疗机构中使用。随着越来越多地采用nqf认可的自愿共识标准，所有医疗保健利益相关者之间的对话和合作变得越来越重要。NQF的年度国家政策会议已成为医疗保健利益相关者和领导人聚集在一起了解医疗保健质量的最新发展，并讨论实施NQF认可的自愿共识标准的挑战和机遇的机会。第九届年度国家政策会议的一个重点是可以部署的政策杠杆，通过系统重新设计、效率仪表板、支付改革以及研究和最佳实践的传播，促进实现国家优先事项改进目标，以具体改变交付系统。
