About MedQIC
The Medicare Quality Improvement Community (MedQIC) Web site is a free on-line resource for quality improvement interventions and associated tools, toolkits, presentations, and links to other resources.
MedQIC is founded on the principle of sharing resources created or endorsed by Quality Improvement Organizations (QIOs). These quality improvement resources are shared within the QIO community and with the health care providers they serve.
The content framework for the Web site is based on the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid (CMS) 9th Scope of Work contract. The contract prioritizes the work of the QIOs into themes, categories, and measures.
MedQIC is funded by CMS to provide a framework for the 9th SoW content developed by subject matter experts for beneficiary protection, care transitions, chronic kidney disease (CKD), health disparities, patient safety, and prevention. The Quality Improvement Organizations Support Contractors (QIOSCs) develop and manage the content on MedQIC based on their expertise in the theme sections.
