- Created in 1999, National Quality Forum (NQF) is the only federally-recognized organization in the nation that evaluates and endorses healthcare measures or practices as the best, evidence-based approaches to improving care.
- NQF-Endorsed measures, which must meet rigorous criteria, are relied on by the federal government, states, and private-sector organizations to evaluate performance and share information with patients and their families.
- In early 2022, NQF officially endorsed 14 NCI-IDD measures, and the technical specifications can be found on the NQF website. Please note that the data referenced in the NQF endorsement was from survey year 2018-19.
- This all-new Report Chapter showcases the NQF-Endorsed measures using the latest available data (2020-21).
