The American Hospital Association announced the new Dick Davidson Quality Milestone Award to recognize hospital associations’ leadership in improving healthcare quality. The award will be presented annually to a hospital association that demonstrates leadership and innovation in healthcare quality improvement and contributes to national healthcare improvement efforts. The first award will be given at the 2011 AHA/Health Forum Leadership Summit in July.
“The Dick Davidson Quality Milestone Award will highlight innovative state, regional and metropolitan hospital association efforts that help hospitals improve quality of care,” said AHA President Rich Umbdenstock. “Hospital associations have contributed to nationwide efforts to improve healthcare quality for patients. The AHA is proud to recognize the outstanding work they do and will work to help others learn from their success.”
