Hospitals are required to have an ongoing, hospital-wide, patient oriented performance improvement plan that measures, assesses, and improves the quality of health care provided to patients. The performance improvement plan must be written, and must provide specific plan details, assess and coordinate quality improvement activities, assure communication, and conduct an annual assessment. The plan should at the least, review care that has been provided, develop measures for quality care, and review hospital specific data.
