Wake AHEC Quality Initiatives & AHEC Performance
Improvement
Wake AHEC offers a broad range of education and
outreach services in support of quality and practice improvement
initiatives. Wake AHEC is committed to helping transform the way
healthcare is delivered; by assisting physicians and other
healthcare providers in developing the tools, systems and support
needed to provide consistently high quality care to all patients,
all the time; in support of improved health outcomes. We can assist
providers in accomplishing all facets of a quality improvement
project, including:
Data collection and assessment;
Project implementation and training;
Outcomes measurement and evaluation.
Category 1 Continuing Medical Education (CME) credit is available
for participation in these practice-based learning and improvement
initiatives. This innovative approach to CME allows physicians and
their office staff to analyze processes of care and redesign
practice specific mechanisms; to improve patient care without
leaving the practice setting.
Quality Initiatives support and reflect state-of-the-art clinical
process improvement methodology, the ACGME Clinical Core
Competencies, and CME and selected maintenance of certification (MOC)
requirements. Wake AHEC's current structured initiatives include:
Improving Performance in Practice (IPIP).
