Abstract: |
EHDI program staff from most states and territories have gone through a National Initiative for Child Health Quality (NICHQ) Learning Collaborative over the past few years in order to learn quality improvement strategies and implementation with the targeted goal of improving lost to follow up. South Carolina’s EHDI program, First Sound, has developed a quality improvement project targeted at birthing hospitals that includes activities such as scripted messaging, timeliness of data entry and showing parents of babies who refer the Hands & Voices “Loss and Found” DVD. The structure of the project provides for financial incentives for the top-performing hospitals of their cohort. This presentation will outline in detail how South Carolina has recruited the initial hospitals to participate, the guidance given to the hospitals and the plan to award the top-performing hospitals through data analysis at the end of the cycle. Preliminary data will be available for the first cohort as well as insight into how the hospitals have responded to the project. |
