MOQuIN is comprised of 25 Federally Qualified Health Centers and one Look-a-like, or 26 Participating Health Centers (PHCs) located in Missouri with a focus on quality and performance improvement. MOQuIN provides support to PHCs in leveraging health information technology and data to deliver high-quality, culturally competent, equitable, and comprehensive primary health care.

MOQuIN will implement activities outlined in the Work Plan, focusing on improvements in clinical quality, patient-centered care, and provider/staff well-being. During the next three years, efforts will include: 1) improved patient engagement though use of digital tools, 2) enhanced patient privacy and cybersecurity through advanced security and privacy protection, 3) increased use of social risk factors to support patient care plans, 4) increased system ability for data reporting via electronic clinic quality measures (eCQM) and UDS+, 5) improved interoperable data exchanges and integration across the health care continuum (e.g., hospitals, specialty providers, departments of health, health information exchanges (HIE), care coordinators, social service/housing organizati
ons) to optimize care coordination and workflows, 6) increased data utilization to support performance based improvement and value-based care, 7) increased support for providers and staff in achieving and maintaining proficiency in the use of digital health tools (e.g., telehealth and remote patient monitoring tools), and 8) improved health IT usability and adoption by providers, staff, and patients. Collaboration will continue with multiple peer HCCNs to utilize staff expertise, leverage collective strength to influence vendor product developments and procurement, as well as sharing model policies and procedures.
