Overview

Patient safety is a moral imperative. Soon, it will be a legal imperative as well. By 2015, hospitals with 50 beds or more must participate in a PSO as a condition of contracting with health plans in state insurance exchanges. Attend CHPSO’s first annual meeting to accelerate patient safety initiatives at your hospital. Key program objectives:

•  Learn critical elements to achieve a culture of safety
•  Develop strategies to engage senior leadership and physicians
•  Understand how to use data to target action
•  Create ways to improve processes on the front line
•  Gain strategies to encourage teamwork and new ideas
