Quality Improvement
Quality Improvement Initiatives at the Digestive Disease Center
Quality Improvement is a priority for the Digestive Disease Center, as we are always looking for ways to improve patient care, minimize risk, and enhance the patient-provider relationship. We have several concurrent initiatives in varying stages of implementation; many of these initiatives are funded at least in part by national organizations, and some of our findings are slated for publication in the near future.
Please utilize the links below for a snapshot of two of our exciting Quality Improvement initiatives!
Procedure Notification - looking at the possibility of automated notification of future procedure due dates for our patients.
Colonoscopy Withdrawal Times - a recent study regarding whether lengthening the time spent on a colonoscopy will increase the number of polyps found by the gastroenterologist .
