With the goal of improving patient care by scrutinizing our data, systems issues are now more applicably addressed and communication among departments has been enhanced. Kathy Hart The Breast Center at Metropolitan Methodist Hospital Certified Quality Breast Center of Excellence™ Metropolitan Methodist Hospital Breast Program has been a long-time participant with NQMBC. As the Breast Program Director, I have personally been responsible for collecting and entering data. In my experience, NQMBC 2.0 is far more user friendly. As with anything new, I was dreading not only a new platform but also new standards. I have found NQMBC 2.0 to be surprisingly easy to navigate once I was given a short/simple tutorial. The built-in explanations and prompts keep me from searching anywhere else for help. Additionally, if I make a mistake and lock my screen, NQMBC provides much support and responds quickly to my requests. Susan Soulek MSN, RN, CBCN, CN-BN Optum Care Cancer and Breast Care Certified Quality Breast Center of Excellence™ NQMBC provides clear information and instruction for Breast Care Centers seeking to obtain accreditation. The webpage is well designed and extremely user friendly. The staff responds to questions quickly. There is never a situation of guessing and hoping for the best as with some other quality programs. Achieving accreditation has helped our clinic, not only continue to achieve, but look for methods to exceed the industry standards. The data that NQMBC provides in the dashboard is incredible. I can easily log in and download charts and graphs to present to the leadership team. The ability to monitor our progress and see how we measure up to highly rated centers assists with creating quality improvement activities, to exemplify a quality culture and mission, in addition to achieving the goals of our organization. Tabatha Cassell, MBA-Healthcare Management, BSHSA Cancer Treatment Centers of America® Zion, IL Certified Quality Breast Center of Excellence™ At Cancer Treatment Centers of America® (CTCA) at Midwestern Regional Medical Center (Midwestern), we pride ourselves on providing patients with efficient, compassionate and quality care. Participating in the National Quality Measures for Breast Centers™ (NQMBC®) program has allowed our hospital’s Breast Center to document, track and benchmark our quality measures in relation to data provided by other breast centers nationwide. The NQMBC quality measures have increased our accountability and awareness of how we can specifically improve identified parameters associated with excellence in care. We value our connection to other Breast Centers throughout the country who share our commitment of providing comprehensive breast care to patients, and are thankful for the defined measures provided by the NQMBC®. Dr. Stephen Ray Share your success story Centered on Excellence NQMBC2.0 and the Latest Benchmarks After more than 12 years of collecting data, we have identified new benchmarks of performance that are consistent across the US. These benchmarks are common across all center variations including geographic region, size of facility, type of breast center and other factors. These new benchmarks are part of the larger launch of the 2.0 version of NQMBC that includes many improvements to the platform designed to improve the user experience.
