AHRQ's Ambulatory Safety and Quality (ASQ) program supports the generation of practical information on how to use health information technology (IT) to improve the safety and quality of care in an ambulatory setting or transitions in care. The program consists of four ASQ initiatives. At the conclusion of each ASQ grant initiative, AHRQ developed a high-level summary report of grantee findings as well as informative stories and videos that highlight some of these exemplary Health IT Portfolio-funded projects.
