Using the recently completed environmental scan on ED crowding and emergency preparedness as a baseline, NQF will convene an expert panel through an in-person meeting and several conference calls/webinars to:
- Review the measures and measure concepts available in the following areas: ED crowding and boarding, emergency preparedness, surge capacity, and any other areas identified by the panel;
- Identify gaps and barriers to fully specifying and testing the measures;
- Prioritize measure concepts in those areas defined above that could be targeted for further development and testing; and
- Provide recommendations for how such measures could be aggregated from the individual facility level to higher levels (e.g., on a regional level, by geographical unit).
