Abstrakt: The services of a three-hospital quality resource department (QRD) were redesigned over a 5-year period. The intention was to provide high-level database management services to improve hospital operations and ensure accountability for performance. There were three key components to the redesign efforts: planning, learning, and measuring performance. This article focuses on planning and measuring the QRD's service using a project registry database.
