The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) oversee the development of electronic clinical quality measures (eCQMs). CMS isresponsible for ensuring that eCQMs are aligned with federal reporting requirements and quality improvement initiatives. eCQMs are used to assess the quality of care provided to patients, leveraging electronic health record (EHR) data to facilitate accurate and efficient measurement.
DNV GL Healthcare (B): This organization provides accreditation and certification but does not develop eCQMs.
Occupational Safety and Health Association (OSHA) (C): OSHA is concerned with workplace safety, not clinical quality measures.
The Joint Commission (TJC) (D): The Joint Commission accredits healthcare organizations and sets quality standards, but CMS specifically oversees eCQM development.
