Quality
in Maine Hospitals
Quality in hospitals isn't only about giving the right treatments.
Quality is about treating patients with care, concern and humanity.
Quality also is about providing a safe environment for staff,
so they are free to focus their attention on their patients.
The member hospitals of the Maine Hospital Association are committed
to internal quality improvements.
MHA believes that consumers and purchasers must have access to
meaningful quality data that lead to informed decisions. Quality
initiatives must be coordinated either on a national level or
state level to avoid duplication and to minimize costs associated
with participation in data collection and reporting. Quality initiatives
should be prioritized to reflect key health concerns both to improve
the quality of outcomes and to reduce overall health care costs.
We must recognize and reduce variation in practice by using clinical,
evidence-based protocols to improve the quality of care and correspondingly
to reduce the cost of care through reduced utilization.
