Since 2001, NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH), in collaboration with New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) AIDS Institute, have developed a quality management (QM) program using a peer-to-peer learning model. The Part A QM program groups providers by service category and conducts Quality Learning Network (QLN) meetings quarterly. Providers also participate in webinars between these meetings. Performance measurement systems, essential to any professional application of quality management, are developed within these service category-based groups. Over the last decade, the QM Program has accumulated experience in developing indicators and conducting reviews fulfilling the EMA’s commitment to ensure that measurement guides quality improvement. Performance measures selected by each QLN reflect key programmatic endeavors within the contract service category, linking services to health outcomes.

Learning Objectives:

  • Understand at least three methods for actively engaging Part A-funded providers in quality management efforts.
  • Describe at least two benefits of the peer-to-peer learning model.
  • Apply aspects of the NY EMA QM program within their own EMA.
