AFMC’s team of outreach specialists work with health care providers on quality improvement projects sponsored by Arkansas Medicaid. The Medicaid Quality Improvement (MQI) team works with physician practices, hospitals and other health care providers, while the Inpatient Quality Improvement (IQI) program focuses on the state’s acute care hospitals.
Every Arkansan deserves the best health and health care possible.
