Illiana Surgical Quality Improvement Collaborative

Working together to Achieve Rapid and Sustained Improvement for Surgical Patients

The newly expanded Illiana Surgical Quality Improvement Collaborative (ISQIC) is a partnership of hospitals in Illinois and Indiana with the shared goal of improving surgical quality and safety for their patients. ISQIC was first established in Illinois in 2014, when 56 hospitals in Illinois in the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (ACS NSQIP) partnered to further utilize ACS NSQIP to improve the quality of surgical care. The Illiana Collaborative will be the first such regional partnership, welcoming all hospitals to participate.

Hospitals in the Illiana Collaborative benefit from the following strategies to accelerate and enhance quality improvements (QI) that have been tested and refined in Illinois since 2014: comparative reports, guided implementation, education, collaborative QI projects, and networking.

This is a unique opportunity for hospitals in Indiana and Illinois to work together, with the guidance of ISQIC, to improve care and further reduce costs for your hospital. Please let us know if you have an interest in involving your hospital. Contact the ISQIC Coordinating Center at info@isqic.org to learn more.
