Upcoming Webinar Explains HQI Solution to Hospital Equity Reporting Challenges

TheHospital Quality Institute (HQI) is offering a service that provides 95% of the information hospitals are required to report by Sept. 30 under Assembly Bill 1204. HQI is hosting a webinar on April 10 addressing the challenges hospitals encounter in equity reporting and how its Hospital Quality Improvement Platform (HQIP) can simplify this process.   

The webinar will share practical strategies and tools to assist hospitals in meeting the mandatory health equity reporting requirements. This is the third in a four-part series; more information can be found on HQI’s website.   

Enrollment in HQIP will give hospitals access to a ready-to-submit report for the Department of Health Care Access and Information, ensuring compliance and reducing staff workload.  

As part of that report, HQI can support hospitals by:    

  • Integrating data from existing sources so custom data pulls are not needed   
  • Preparing structural measures based on tested algorithms   
  • Building the baseline data infrastructure for rate ratios with pre-filled numerators, denominators, and rates   

HQI’s team of experts is available through the entire process, saving hospitals time and frustration. To learn more, visit the HQI website or contact hqianalytics@hqinstitute.org.
