SOPS Fact: Supplemental item sets can be added to the SOPS surveys

Did you know the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) Surveys on Patient Safety Culture™ (SOPS™) program offers optional supplemental items that can be added toward the end of the SOPS surveys?

• The Value and Efficiency Supplemental Item Sets help Hospitals and Medical Offices assess the extent to which their organizations place a priority on and adopt practices to promote efficiency, waste reduction, patient centeredness, and high-quality care at a reasonable cost.
• The Health IT Patient Safety Supplemental Item Set for Hospitals assesses the extent to which the hospital culture is sensitive to how the use of health information technology affects patient safety. 

Watch SOPS webcasts on these item sets:
