- CAH/CART - CAHs and those facilities using CART - this hands-on training is for you! Training covers basic abstraction using the CART tool and use of CART reports for quality improvement.
- QNet/Reports – Not sure how to run or use your QualityNet and CART reports? Are you responsible for the oversight of hospital reporting but don’t do the abstraction? This training will delve into the world of running those reports and using your data reports to organize improvement activities at your facility.
