For more than 40 years, Medicare Quality Improvement Organizations (QIOs) have served as trusted partners in advancing health care quality across the nation. Today, the QIO Program—led by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS)—enters a new chapter, offering more targeted, data-driven support to hospitals, nursing homes and clinician offices.
As the newly designated Southeast CMS QIN-QIO (Region 3)— which includes North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama and Mississippi—Health Quality Innovators (HQI) is committed to helping providers like you drive meaningful, measurable improvements in patient care.
