A new brief from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality describes the importance of quality improvement in primary care and outlines external supports—which can be used alone or in combination—to assist primary care practices in improving quality. The brief offers information on the four supports—data feedback and benchmarking, practice facilitation (or coaching), expert consultation (also called peer-to-peer mentoring), and shared learning or learning collaboratives—as well as links to resources.
