Our aims

Working in partnership with healthcare stakeholders to improve quality of care and provide value for money, HQIP aims to support and enable a culture of quality improvement.

The quality of the relationship between patient and clinician and the clinical team is at the heart of good healthcare. At the national level, we believe that partnership between professional bodies and organisations that represent patients and service users is the key to revitalising clinical audit.

Standards of clinical care are best set by professional bodies working with patients and service users. Only in this way will clinical audit be the engine which drives improvement in practice. Only if healthcare professionals are at the centre will clinical audit generate meaningful and complete information about outcomes and care processes for secondary purposes, including revalidation.
