The team is responsible for maintaining and improving software at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) for the Hospital Quality Reporting (HQR) program, which thousands of hospitals use to submit quality measure data. The goal is to continuously modernize these systems, reduce provider burden, and minimize costs to CMS through HCD, Service design practices, product thinking, and skilled engineering, ultimately enabling providers to focus on improving patient care quality and safety.
