About the HQPS Online Academy
Quality improvement is a core feature of hospital medicine.
Currently, hospitalized patients do not consistently receive
recommended care and are at risk for experiencing preventable harm. In
an effort to stimulate improvement, stakeholders have called for
increased accountability, including enhanced transparency and
differential payment based on performance.
Many hospitalists and other hospital-based professionals feel
inadequately prepared to engage in efforts to improve quality because
training programs have not traditionally included healthcare quality
and patient safety in their curricula. The Society of Hospital
Medicine's Quality Improvement Education subcommittee developed the
Hospital Quality and Patient Safety Online Academy to help
meet this need. The HQPS Online Academy consists of internet-based
modules that emphasize high-yield learning points presented in an
efficient manner. Module topics and learning objectives are based on
the HQPS Competencies. Three (3) AMA PRA Category 1 Credits
are offered for each module.
Our hope is that the participants in the HQPS Online Academy will
apply the knowledge and skills obtained to help transform healthcare
and improve patient outcomes.
