Phase Two: Pilot
Improving the quality of medical care is a major objective of an accountable public health care system. Family medicine is the cornerstone of the health care system and family practices play a key role in providing safe, effective, patient-centered, timely, responsive and comprehensive primary health care. The development and testing of a voluntary quality assessment programme was proposed and funded as a first step in a process that would faciltiate continuous quality improvement (CQI) of family practices in Ontario.
The purpose of Phase 2 was to set up a demonstration pilot project with the following
objectives:
- To design and evaluate a collaborative interdisciplinary programme for achieving excellence in family practices
- To explore the feasibility, acceptability and affordability of the programme
- To refine and evaluate the comprehensive Assessment Tool
- To evaluate the role and facilitation of the interdisciplinary trained Assessors.
