Refreshed Accelerate PI™ Dashboard Reports containing data through fourth quarter of 2022 are available for accredited hospitals and critical access hospitals. Data in the reports comes from chart-abstracted quality measures and electronic clinical quality measures (eCQMs) data reported by hospitals to The Joint Commission under the ORYX® program.
The dashboards, available to both Joint Commission surveyors and accredited hospitals, are intended to be a springboard for conversations on data, performance measures, and quality improvement during the survey process.
Accelerate PI Dashboard Reports are located under the Resources and Tools menu below the DASH heading in JC Connect®.
