Summary

This is an informational policy from Medi-Cal (California) encouraging hospitals to utilize no-cost quality improvement resources and benchmarking tools to enhance patient safety outcomes. The policy does not impose new billing requirements, coding changes, or coverage restrictions—it is purely advisory and promotional in nature.

Action Required

Action needed
No immediate billing team action required. This policy is informational and applies to hospital-level quality improvement programs, not to medical billing workflows, coding, or claims processing. If your practice operates a hospital setting in Imperial County, California, leadership may wish to review available resources from HSAG, HQI, and Leapfrog, but this does not affect billing operations, coding, or reimbursement.
