NQF: Call for public comments on Serious Reportable Events list
On June 2, 2025, NQF began seeking public comments as part of its consensus-based process to update its Serious Reportable Events (SRE) list. The SRE list is a set of patient safety events that are serious and largely preventable and may indicate a problem with a healthcare setting’s safety systems.
Patients, advocates, stakeholders and the public at large are invited to share their thoughts on the event descriptions during the public comment period, which ends July 1, 2025. Comments will inform SRE-specific guidance provided in a final report planned for release in fall 2025. For more information, see the Request for Public Comment Document, which can be downloaded from the NQF website.
Please contact the NQF team at patientsafety@qualityforum.org with questions.
