Published: Tuesday, July 24, 2007 - 22:00 This NQF project seeks to identify and endorse measures for public accountability and quality improvement related to emergency care at the facility and practitioner levels. The project has been sequenced into several, interrelated phases: The steering committee will oversee the development of a draft consensus report, including recommendation of which measures should be endorsed as consensus standards for emergency department transfer care. The steering committee, comprising 8-10 individuals, will represent the range of stakeholder perspectives, including consumers, purchasers, quality improvement professionals, researchers, and health care system professionals possessing relevant knowledge and/or experience in quality assessment of emergency department transfer care. Steering committee members shouldn’t be involved in the development of candidate measures as outlined in NQF’s “Conflict of Interest” policy. All potential steering committee members must disclose any current and past activities during the nomination process. As with all NQF projects, the steering committee will work with NQF staff to develop specific project plans, provide advice about the subject, ensure input is obtained from relevant stakeholders, review draft products, and recommend specific measures and research priorities to NQF members for consideration under the consensus development process. For full details on the nomination process, conflict of interest guidelines, and the nomination form, visit www.qualityforum.org/news/more-news.asp#071307.
