Welcome to the Hospital Quality Share group!  This group is intended to provide a forum to discuss and exchange information, resources, and tools to support quality measurement and improvement activities related to the hospital inpatient and outpatient "core" measures (as many of you did on the national SCIP list serve). Anyone may participate in this group as a member. This group is not designed to replace the official abstraction guideline resources provided by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services or The Joint Commission – this group is for sharing of tools and discussion of best practices between the front-line professionals in hospitals responsible for measuring and improving quality.

 

Please note the following:

 

  • This group is not monitored – that is, if you open a topic or submit materials, that information will not be screened before it is posted for anyone to see….so pause before you post;
  • All posts to this group can be viewed by anyone, but only members of the group may post new topics, reply, or share documents. If you want to send a private message that will go only to the individual who posted a message, send it directly to their email address, or click “Reply to author” before you reply to a posted message;
  • Never, never post any identifiable patient information (Protected Health Information – PHI) to this group. That would represent a HIPAA violation. By joining this group you acknowledge that you are individually responsible for what you post;
  • Materials that are copyrighted (such as journal articles) should not be attached to your posts. Just post the reference to the article.
When you create the Google account, I believe it establishes for you a gmail account to which your emails from this list will be sent (i.e., yourusername@gmail.com).
