Overview

Through the data validation process, valuable information is gained that can then be used to improve performance around patient care or quality of care metrics.  Improving quality performance may take the form of improving data collection processes, better identifying patients who need additional interventions, or decreasing missed opportunities to provide patients appropriate interventions, among other possibilities. This section includes guidance on leveraging Health IT to improve quality performance including change packages for recommended approaches related to various quality of care measures.

Improving UDS Clinical Quality Measure Performance: Increasing HIV Prevention in Primary Care

HITEQ Highlights Webinar

Introduction

Primary care plays a key role in ending the HIV epidemic. The Ending the HIV Epidemic initiative launched across HHS in 2019, setting forth four key strategies also called the “four pillars” of ending the HIV epidemic. Primary care in health centers figures centrally into these efforts, evidenced by the addition of several HIV screening and prevention measures and metrics in the Uniform Data System (UDS) reporting. 

Who should review?

Health center staff (clinicians, quality managers, and others) interested in improving HIV screening and prevention in the primary care setting.

What should attendees expect?

This webinar reviewed HIV screening and prevention, including HIV Screening, PrEP management, and linkage to HIV treatment, UDS reporting as well as a data deep dive and available data dashboards. Opportunities for HIV-related quality improvement in the health center primary care setting were also identified.
