 Measurement and Improvement : A Hands on Strategy 
 Workshop A hands-on workshop where participants engage with 
 peers\, PCMH CCEs and NCQA staff to develop performance 
 measures and quality improvement strategy for their 
 practice. This interactive day will consist of a review 
 relevant program requirements and dynamic collaboration. 
 Developing a framework for continuous quality improvement 
 ensures that practices support accurate measurement\, improve 
 outcomes and enhance patient satisfaction using a team-based 
 approach. The workshop will include breakout sessions where 
 participants discuss strategies for building a quality 
 improvement-focused team culture and your practice’s 
 specific reporting requirements.What You Will 
 Learn\n\nDescribe the importance of staff involvement in 
 measurement and quality improvement. Take initial steps to 
 establish a team-based quality improvement 
 culture. Identify performance measures that align with 
 their practice goals and meet PCMH requirements. Implement 
 strategies to shift quality improvement efforts from a 
 one-time initiative to a continuous cycle. Tailor actions 
 to improve priority measures. Health & Safety As we resume 
 in-person events in furtherance of our mission\, the health 
 and safety of all persons at the events is a top priority. 
 To that end\, NCQA has instituted health and safety protocols 
 around COVID-19. Although attendees should recognize and 
 accept there is inherent risk involved in attending 
 in-person events\, NCQA has adopted risk-mitigation measures 
 to reduce the potential exposure and transmission of 
 COVID-19. Please review “NCQA’s COVID-19 Guidelines for 
 In-Person Events” which provides detail on the requirement 
 to be fully vaccinated as defined by NCQA policy to attend 
 the event in person and describes relevant health protocols 
 and attendee responsibilities.\nProof of full vaccination 
 status against COVID-19 is required for in person attendees. 
  Details regarding masking and social distancing will be 
 provided closer to the event based on CDC\, state and local 
 guidance and associated levels of transmission. If required\, 
 attendees should follow proper mask wearing (over nose and 
 mouth) at an event when not actively eating or 
 drinking.\nNCQA staff will update registered event attendees 
 of our guidance and full health and safety protocols related 
 to proof of vaccination status\, testing and masking prior to
