The Indian Health Service announces a new tool to assist in the monitoring and distribution of health care quality information amongst the Native community and Congress.

The Indian Health Service (IHS) has announced a new tool to monitor and report information system-wide. The National Accountability Dashboard for Quality (NAD-Q) will allow IHS to report on key performance data in a “succinct and easily viewed display.”

The NAD-Q shows how IHS is functioning in the following key domains for health care systems:

  • Quality (efficient, effective, and equitable);
  • Accreditation;
  • Workforce;
  • Patient-centered care;
  • Safety; and
  • Timely care.

The dashboard will monitor and report on compliance with policy requirements, accreditation standards, and regulations at hospitals and ambulatory health centers. The tool also supports oversight and management, and will allow IHS to make fact-based decisions to ensure quality and safety of care.

The NAD-Q also allows IHS to share with tribes, tribal and urban Indian organizations, and Congress how well it is meeting standards and requirements
