Learning from AHRQ's Diagnostic Safety Culture Survey at a Tertiary Care Health System in Brazil: A Case Study

Learning from AHRQ's Diagnostic Safety Culture Survey at a Tertiary Care Health System in Brazil: A Case Study: Diagnostic error was found to be one of the most prominent patient safety risks at the Sociedade Beneficente Israelita Brasileira Albert Einstein (SBIBAE), a tertiary care health system in São Paolo, Brazil. This health system consists of five high-complexity hospitals, two private (with 746 beds) and three public (with 889 beds) and provides both inpatient and outpatient care. The health system uses an anonymous incident reporting system, enabling employees to report potential adverse events, near-misses, or areas of risk across the entire health system.
