Nursing Home Quality Initiative
IPRO has entered into the 8th Scope of Work (SOW) as the Medicare Quality Improvement Organization (QIO) for New York State. IPRO's Nursing Home Quality Improvement (NHQI) team works with nursing homes throughout the state to help improve the quality of care for nursing home residents by providing facilities with complimentary clinical resources, quality improvement materials, and, where indicated or requested, 1:1 technical support. Many New York facilities have made significant improvements in the care provided to residents by working with our team and taking advantage of the materials and the support of IPRO's NHQI staff. We are pleased to report that New York has ranked among the most successful states during the past three years of this project. We will continue to focus on the Chronic Pain, High Risk Pressure Ulcers, and Restraints Quality Measures (QMs). The Depression Quality Measure and Organizational Culture Change are new focus areas.

8th SOW Topics for additional information.
