Variability, limited resources, diminished margins, inefficiencies, and unpredictability can all influence the level of care patients receive. The ѻý Quality Verification Program (ѻýQVP) was developed to address these challenges with ѻýNSQIP hospitals in mind.
The ѻýQVP works to mitigate these challenges by combining an organized infrastructure with improved communication, leadership, and quality culture—all informed by the exceptional data collected from ѻýNSQIP.
Though a separate and optional program from ѻýNSQIP, ѻýQVP is already bundled into the contract and pricing for Focused participation level when hospitals are ready to start the process.
Combining ѻýQVP and ѻýNSQIP leads to success. This partnership meets hospital requests on how to better merge data with quality improvement (QI) efforts, assists hospitals in organizing infrastructure, and supports the alignment of effective leadership and communication.
To support the different needs of different hospitals, the ѻýQVP has two distinct participation options—Focused and Comprehensive.
ѻýQVP Webinars
Informational videos with pilot hospital speakers and ѻýQVP staff discussing the verification and site visit process.
ѻýQVP Resources
Verification and site visit guidance documents, publications, and media releases.
Sites interested in participating in ѻýNSQIP QVP should review the standards and online resources, gather stakeholders to discuss participation, and review levels. For additional information, please contact acsnsqip@facs.org.
