Practice Environment: Improving Quality Indicators
Guest: Erica Bellamkonda, M.D. Host: Jeffrey S. Brault, D.O. (@JeffBrault) How do we measure and improve specific quality indicators, including those required by various government bodies? Where do you even start? How effective do you need to be when you are completing a project? Dr. Erica Bellamkonda discusses quality improvement projects, including how to choose a project, steps to completing a project, and how to follow up once completed using the PDSA (Plan, Do, Study, Act) strategy.
