Welcome to HLQAT.org

This is the home of the Hospital Leadership and Quality Assessment Tool (HLQAT).

HLQAT is a self-assessment tool to help hospitals identify and improve leadership structures and processes that are associated with high performance in clinical quality measures.

At this site you will be able to:

  • Complete the HLQAT self-assessment
  • Receive a hospital-level HLQAT report
  • Benchmark your performance against other hospitals on a continuum of leadership attributes that are strongly correlated with high performance on measures of clinical quality
  • Read through a list of Frequently Asked Questions about the HLQAT

Interested hospitals that wish to improve their performance may also sign on for access to a set of Resources for Leadership Interventions (RLIs), comprised of over 120 on-line evidence-based resources (articles, tools, and other resources) targeted to specific opportunities identified through HLQAT.

We hope you find the HLQAT useful as you facilitate meaningful leadership conversations and higher levels of quality in your hospital.

 
About HLQAT:

HLQAT is the result of a public-private collaboration of national organizations interested in helping hospitals maximize their reimbursement on value-based purchasing quality measure sets.

 

 
 
 

  • HLQAT Update

    The HLQAT Team is pleased to announce that HLQAT.org will remain open until March 31, 2011, for hospitals seeking to take their re-measurement survey.

    In order to take the HLQAT survey again, simply enter the Hospital Code that you used the first time you took the survey, but with the suffix "_2" added to the end. For example, if your initial code was H01111, your remeasurement code will be H01111_2.

    Be advised that recently completed surveys will not be swept into the "View Reports" section of HLQAT.org immediately, so don't worry if you're not able to view your hospital-specific reports for a week or two.

    If you have any questions regarding this process, or have lost your original code, you may contact us by e-mail, at markHLQAT@gmail.com.

    Thank you

    The HLQAT Team
