Our quality improvement (QI) projects are designed to help NICUs improve specific areas of care using evidence-based practices. We offer large, multi-site "collaborative" projects as well as smaller, more targeted approaches. Quality improvement projects are open to all CPQCC member hospitals.

ABP Maintenance of Certification Part 4 Credit

CPQCC has been authorized by the American Board of Pediatrics (ABP) to evaluate QI projects against the ABP’s standards and approve them for Maintenance Of Certification (MOC) credit.  As a Pediatric Portfolio Sponsor, we are thrilled to offer physicians participating in our quality improvement activities MOC Part 4 credit.  For more information, please contact CPQCC Associate Director of Quality, Courtney Nisbet.
