QIP (Quality Incentive Program)

The Quality Incentive Program (QIP) is a system designed to motivate healthcare providers to improve the quality and safety of patient care. By meeting specific performance standards, providers can earn financial rewards or avoid penalties. These standards often focus on patient outcomes, safety protocols, and efficient practices. QIP encourages continuous improvement by linking financial incentives to the delivery of high-quality, reliable care, ultimately aiming to enhance overall healthcare performance and patient satisfaction.
