This cooperative agreement will address the quality improvement component.

This program should aim to address the quality improvement requirements: o Utilization of a defined approach or methodology (e.g., model for improvement, Lean) to implement quality improvement activities; o Implementation of quality improvement activities in an organized, systematic fashion; o Quantification of results showing impact on health outcomes; o Documentation of all quality improvement activities; and o Inclusion of quality improvement activities within at least one funded service category at any given time.
