Making Measurement Matter: How Will Your Organization Engage with the New Palliative Care Quality Collaborative? (TH317)

All people living with a serious illness deserve high-quality care focused on their own priorities and values. Yet, palliative care is not available for all who could benefit, and measurement and improving care in the context of the proliferation of requirements to measure quality from health systems, payers, and accrediting bodies can challenge busy organizations. To assist palliative care programs in improving the availability and quality of care, AAHPM leads an effort to create a unified registry to track the prevalence of palliative care programs and measure the quality of program operations and clinical care delivery.
