Improving Care through Data

The ACS TQIP works to elevate the quality of care for trauma patients. In fact, we’re already doing that in more than 900 participating trauma centers across the US. TQIP collects data from your trauma center, provides feedback about your center’s performance, and identifies institutional characteristics that your trauma center staff can implement to improve patient outcomes. The program uses risk-adjusted benchmarking to provide your hospital with accurate national comparisons. 

Collaborative Toolkit

Leaders from our mature ACS TQIP Collaboratives have compiled their “lessons learned” into a comprehensive toolkit to help new TQIP Collaboratives get started. This document serves as a resource to assist leaders in addressing potential challenges and as a road map for Collaborative development.

TQIP Collaboratives

A Collaborative is a group of TQIP hospitals in either a specified geographic area or a hospital system working together with the shared goal of trauma system quality improvement. Participating in a Collaborative is a great way to identify and share best practices among Collaborative participants and improve care overall.
