Consortium Quality Improvement Program

The purpose of the Lower New York Consortium's Quality Improvement (CQI) Program is to ensure that all clients in Consortium-funded programs receive health care services in accordance with Public Health Service Guidelines and conforming to Title III, Title IV, and New York State AIDS Institute quality requirements and expectations.

The Program, using Quality Improvement principles and methodologies, aims to continuously improve the quality of care and services in a multidisciplinary team approach and is consistent with the organization and management of clinic programs.

The Program anticipates improving the process and systems that influence the outcomes of care by identifying opportunities for improvement; collecting and analyzing data; and developing, implementing, and subsequently evaluating, plans.
