Problem Statement
There are health disparities in the utilization of our mammographic screening programs by AHRQ priority patient populations, possibly leading to missed opportunities for early cancer detection and management.
How the Collaborative Works
Each facility forms an interdisciplinary project team consisting of four to six members who participate in the ACR® ImPower Program, alongside a cohort of colleagues from other institutions. Together, these teams will receive quality improvement (QI) education and utilize QI tools to identify and test ways to increase the percentage of eligible patients who receive a screening mammogram within a specific AHRQ priority population.
