Quality assessment and improvement standards for behavioral group practices.
Behavioral group practices have agreed on performance indicators and have established national benchmarking standards. Collaborative study, led by the Institute for Behavioral Healthcare's Council of Behavioral Group Practices (CBGP), facilitates practice pattern evaluation, trend analysis, and clinical quality improvement. The study reports the benchmarking standards for quality assessment and improvement standards in behavioral group practices in the comprehensive 1995 and 1996 CBGP Performance Indicator Reports.
