Several categories within an active QIP need to be edited to work through and complete the QIP process. You can navigate through the categories using the Problem solving model PDSA (Plan-Do-Study-Act) by editing the information in the subcategories.

Note

Aims can only be tracked on the Outcome graph if the Current Values for individual Aims are updated periodically in the Aim tab.

  • Analytics > QIP > click the QIP title.

  • Outcome - You can track the performance toward accomplishing an individual aim on a graph. You can also close or retire the QIP in this section.

  • Use the Aim list to select which Aim to track on the graph. Only one Aim can be viewed on the graph at one time.

  • Buttons on the top right side of the screen allow you to navigate back to the PIP dashboard and to generate printable reports for the PIP Summary and PIP Detail.

  • If changes are made to a subcategory, when you navigate to another section, you are prompted to save changes.

  • Instructions and hints remains on the right side of the page throughout the QIP creation and when editing under the Plan category to cue QIP users about how to complete the fields, including links to QIP and QAPI tools.
