Medicare Quality Improvement Organization Program

The Medicare Quality Improvement Organization (QIO) Program consists of groups that work with healthcare providers to improve the quality of care for Medicare beneficiaries. Their goal is to ensure patients receive safe, effective, and timely care through efforts such as reviewing provider performance, offering education, and promoting best practices. QIOs help identify areas for improvement, support healthcare providers in implementing changes, and monitor progress. This program ultimately aims to enhance patient outcomes, reduce errors, and ensure high standards of healthcare quality for those enrolled in Medicare.
