whether services meet current accepted standards of practice. This page includes

Medical Case Management Technical
Assistance
The Continuous Quality Improvement Program offers monthly on-site
technical assistance at all Miami-Dade County Ryan White Program agencies.
Technical assistance visits are part of a continuous quality improvement process
designed to identify and resolve problems and weaknesses, both agency-specific
and system-wide. The goal of the visits is to prevent the development of chronic
problems. Along with regularly conducted system-wide record reviews, and the
submission of quarterly record reviews by each provider agency, the visits
allow CQI staff to systematically focus on quality improvement areas (e.g.,
the financial assessment and eligibility determination).
Technical assistance site visits aim to ensure:
Compliance with medical case management standards
Identification of areas requiring improvement
Recognition of agency strengths
