  • Title: Computer software for health care CQI.
    Author: Kibbe DC, Scoville RP.
    Journal: Qual Manag Health Care; 1993; 1(4):50-8. PubMed ID: 10131011.
    Abstract:
    The transition from quality assurance to continuous quality improvement (CQI) demands a basic change from centralized to decentralized information management. In CQI, front-line staff can use personal computer (PC) software skills to manage, analyze, and act on process-related information. Information services departments play a key role in this transition by, among other things, selecting software that optimally supports the PC-based work carried out by CQI teams. A review of typical CQI team software requirements and of available PC software suggests that Microsoft Excel 4.0 is a nearly ideal software platform to support CQI teams.
