Quality Improvement


For more than three decades QSource has been committed to assisting with the quality of care and utilization of services provided to healthcare consumers. QSource is the leading supplier of quality improvement services to healthcare providers and the communities they serve. Our primary focus is on Medicare and Medicaid populations and the underserved populations of America.

Since 1973, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has contracted with QSource to serve as a Medicare Quality Improvement Organization (QIO). As a QIO, our quality improvement teams work hand-in-hand with healthcare providers to assist in improving the quality of care provided to 900,000+ Medicare beneficiaries.

Nursing Homes
We offer training events, tools, and resources to help nursing homes improve selected quality measures and assist facilities transitioning from an institutional to a person-centered model of care.

Home Health Agencies
We offer training events, tools, and resources to help agencies improve selected quality measures and assist with national initiatives on topics such as improving acute care hospitalization and implementing telehealth.

Hospitals
We offer quality improvement support for hospital data reporting and for the treatment of acute myocardial infarction, heart failure, and pneumonia, as well as surgical care improvement and assist hospitals in improving their patient safety culture.

Physician Offices
Through our Doctor's Office Quality-Information Technology (DOQ-IT) Program, we offer primary care practices expert assistance to select, implement, and fully utilize electronic health record (EHR) systems to enhance patient safety, office efficiency, and quality of care. We also help physicians incorporate best practices for adult immunization, breast cancer screening, cultural competency, and diabetes care.

Underserved Population
QSource is the country's only Underserved Quality Improvement Organization Support Center (UQIOSC). We assist CMS in its efforts to improve performance measure results among underserved populations in three clinical areas — breast cancer, adult immunizations and diabetes — and educate healthcare professionals about providing culturally diverse care.
