National Collaborative for Innovation in Quality Measurement (NCINQ)

描述（由申请人提供）：1国家质量测量创新合作组织（NCINQ）是由2个领导者和组织组成的联盟，致力于推进儿科测量，作为AHRQ PQMP的一部分。我们的3团队汇集了现有的多个州和多个利益相关者的合作，国家组织，重点是儿科护理质量，包括国家质量保证委员会，全国儿童医院，纽约州，美国儿科学会，罗格斯大学，儿童和青少年健康测量倡议，全国促进青少年健康联盟和一个由主要健康计划、提供者团体和家庭组成的广泛网络。NCINQ在儿童健康的不同领域提供广泛的专业知识，并为测量开发和测试提供经过验证的基础设施。我们提供创新测量和实施方面的9项突破，这对AHRQ 10 PQMP的成功至关重要，这是基于我们在测量和信息学方面的创新者合作，我们之前与11个合作协议的经验，我们参与许多领先的国家合作，我们在质量测量和研究中吸引12个家庭和不同利益相关者的经验，以及我们在获得13项全国共识、批准和实施措施方面的良好记录。14我们的总体目标是通过制定最能反映卫生保健系统各级保健服务价值的质量措施，改善儿童及其家庭的健康状况。为了实现这一目标，我们建议加强现有的工具，开发一套新的和改进的工具，并将其应用于现实世界的设置。我们致力于制定解决儿童健康所有18个方面的措施。我们拥有专业知识和经验，可以制定既先进又可广泛实施的措施，这些措施利用现有数据来源，但也将塑造未来有意义地使用卫生信息技术的标准，并将与一线卫生保健提供者相关，以支持临床质量改进和问责制。最重要的是，我们致力于采取质量措施，22这些措施能反映家庭和青年的声音，使他们成为卫生系统变革的推动者。23具体而言，我们建议：目标1：在高度优先的内容24领域测试新的和加强现有的措施，重点是预防、跨环境和条件的综合护理以及心理健康; 25和目标2：应用创新的方法来解决儿童健康质量方面的关键衡量问题。在这个应用程序中，我们描述了我们的专业知识，基础设施，建议的方法来衡量27开发和测试，以及潜在的项目。如果我们的主题被AHRQ优先考虑，到这28个补助金结束时，我们将在CHIPRA核心集中加强至少10项措施，并制定至少12个29项指标供未来核心集考虑，包括至少6个适合作为健康IT有意义使用措施的指标。 公共卫生相关性：国家质量测量创新合作组织（NCINQ）是致力于推进儿科质量测量的领导者和组织的联盟。我们的总体目标是通过制定最能反映卫生保健系统各级卫生保健服务价值的质量措施，改善儿童及其家庭的健康状况。为了实现这一目标，我们建议增强现有的工具，开发一套新的和改进的工具，并将其应用于现实世界的设置。最重要的是，我们致力于采取能够反映家庭和青年声音的高质量措施，使他们成为卫生系统变革的推动者。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): 1 The National Collaborative for Innovation in Quality Measurement (NCINQ) is a consortium of 2 leaders and organizations committed to advancing pediatric measurement as part of the AHRQ PQMP. Our 3 team brings together existing multi-state and multi-stakeholder collaboratives, national organizations with a 4 focus on pediatric care quality, including the National Committee for Quality Assurance, Nationwide Children's 5 Hospital, the State of New York, the American Academy of Pediatrics, Rutgers University, the Child and 6 Adolescent Health Measurement Initiative, the National Alliance to Advance Adolescent Health and a broad 7 network of major health plans, provider groups, and families. NCINQ offers broad expertise in diverse areas of 8 child health and a proven infrastructure for measure development and testing. We offer capacity for 9 breakthroughs in innovative measurement and implementation that will be critical to the success of the AHRQ 10 PQMP based on our collaboration of innovators in measurement and informatics, our prior experience with 11 Cooperative Agreements, our involvement in many leading national collaborations, our experience in engaging 12 families and diverse stakeholders in quality measurement and research, and our proven record in gaining 13 national consensus, endorsement, and implementation of measures. 14 Our overall goal is to improve health outcomes for children and their families through the 15 creation of quality measures that best reflect value in health care delivery at every level of the health 16 care system. To accomplish this goal, we propose to enhance existing tools, develop a new and improved set 17 of tools and apply them in real-world settings. We are committed to developing measures that address all 18 aspects of child health. We have the expertise and experience to develop measures that are both cutting edge 19 and widely implementable, that take advantage of existing data sources but will also shape future criteria for 20 Meaningful Use of health information technology, and that will be relevant to frontline health care providers for 21 supporting clinical quality improvement and accountability. Above all, we are committed to quality measures 22 that capture the voices of family and youth so as to engage them as agents of health system change. 23 Specifically, we propose to: Aim 1: Test new and enhance existing measures in high-priority content 24 areas, with foci on prevention, integration of care across settings and conditions, and mental health; 25 and Aim 2: Apply innovative methodologies to address critical measurement issues in child health 26 quality. In this application, we describe our expertise, infrastructure, proposed approach to measure 27 development and testing, and potential projects. If our topics are prioritized by AHRQ, by the end of this 28 grant, we will have enhanced at least 10 measures in the CHIPRA core set and developed at least 12 29 indicators for consideration in the future core set, including at least 6 indicators suitable for 30 consideration as Health IT Meaningful Use measures.
