Helping to Improve the Quality of Patient Care
ICW provides the support independent providers need to offer high-quality care.
Quality & Utilization Management Committee
The Quality & Utilization Management Committee (QUMC) oversees the quality and utilization management activities within ICW. The committee’s primary focus is ensuring ICW is doing its part in improving the quality of patient care and practicing fair and compliant utilization activities.
The committee is open to all active ICW providers, and term lengths are two years. The committee meets monthly to:
-
Approve quality initiatives
-
Monitor utilization
-
Assess timely access to care
-
Establish authorization guidelines
-
Review, evaluate, and recommend Board action regarding any quality matters brought before the Board
If you would like to join QUMC or learn more, please contact Jami Payne, Manager of Medical Management, at
