This week, we'll be highlighting papers published in the new edition of Health Affairs, entitled "Still Crossing the Quality Chasm." This edition explores the question of quality as raised in the 2001 Institute of Medicine report, Crossing the Quality Chasm, and explores how far we have come since its publication... while also anticipating the road ahead.
"Creating A Framework For Getting Quality Into The Public Health System"
Authors: Peggy A. Honoré, Donald Wright, Donald M. Berwick, Carolyn M. Clancy, Peter Lee, Juleigh Nowinski and Howard K. Koh
In this piece, the authors discuss two reports from the Department of Health and Human Services: Priority Areas for Improvement of Quality in Public Health and Consensus Statement on Quality in the Public Health System and how they relate to the Affordable Care Act, serving "as a call to action for ensuring a better future for population health."
