Reducing Diagnostic Error
Abstract
In 2019, NQF, with funding from the Department of Health and Human Services, is convening a new multistakeholder expert Committee to revisit and build on the work of the Diagnostic Quality and Safety Committee. The new Improving Diagnostic Quality & Safety/ Reducing Diagnostic Error: Measurement Considerations Committee will review the Diagnostic Process and Outcomes domain of the measurement framework, updating or modifying subdomains or applicable cross-cutting themes as needed. This first report, the environmental scan, describes new literature published since the original environmental scan conducted in 2016-2017 to support the activities of the Improving Diagnostic Quality and Safety project.
