Quality & Surveys
The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services requires that each PIHP have a Quality Assessment and Performance Improvement Program (QAPIP) that meets the standards based on the Guidelines for Internal Quality Assurance Programs, the Balanced Budget Act of 1997 (BBA), Public Law 105-33 and 42 Code of Federal Regulation (CFR) 438.359 of 2002.
SWMBH has a quality program that is in compliance with the Michigan standards by identifying 1) an adequate organizational structure which allows for clear and appropriate administration and evaluation of the QAPIP; 2) the components and activities of the QAPIP; 3) the role for recipients of service in the QAPIP; and 4) the mechanisms or procedures to be used for adopting and communicating process and outcome improvement.
