Request for Information on Creating a National Healthcare System Action Alliance To Advance Patient Safety

Resumo

The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), on behalf of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), seeks public comment about advancing patient and healthcare workforce safety through the development of a National Healthcare System Action Alliance to Advance Patient Safety (Action Alliance) in partnership with healthcare systems, patients, families and caregivers, HHS and other Federal agencies, and other stakeholders to support sustained improvements in patient safety. Specifically, the RFI seeks input on how the Action Alliance can be most effective. In addition, the RFI seeks comments about innovative models of care, approaches, promising strategies, and solutions for overcoming some of the common impediments to safety being experienced in healthcare today. This request for information will inform HHS's work and more specifically the work of the Action Alliance.
