NCQA Speakers are available to present on the State of Health Care Quality: 2009. This annual report details performance trends, tracks variations in patterns of care and provides recommendations for future quality improvement.

Now in its 13th year, the report provides an exclusive look at the performance data submitted by nearly 1000 health plans around the country. The report answers questions such as:

How does the rising cost of health care and the economic downturn affect the quality of  health care?

How does the quality of care differ from one part of the country to another?

What do we need to do to improve quality for all Americans?
