National Healthcare Quality Report 2008 State Snapshots

The State Snapshots provide State-specific health care quality information, including strengths, weaknesses, and opportunities for improvement. The goal is to help State officials and their public- and private-sector partners better understand health care quality and disparities in their State.

State-level information used to create the State Snapshots is based on data collected for the National Healthcare Quality Report (NHQR).
Performance Measures- Summary measures of quality of care and States' performances relative to all States and the region by:
  • Overall health care quality
  • Types of care (preventive, acute, and chronic)
  • Settings of care (hospitals, ambulatory care, nursing home, and home health)
