Description: Quality indicators (QIs) are an essential part of the quality management system that aims to reduce errors and ultimately improve patient safety. However, laboratories differ in their performance metrics and even the most common indicators often vary in the way that they are reported. Harmonization is therefore needed in order to establish benchmarks for optimal care and also enable peer comparisons. Efforts are happening at the international, national, and local level to leverage tools and drive change. Learn how the University of Toronto is a leading a collaboration to harmonize QIs and use data driven approaches to improve laboratory quality.
