THE LOUISIANA SURGICAL QUALITY COLLABORATIVE (LASQC) IS AN INITIATIVE OF LOUISIANA HOSPITALS SEEKING TO MEASURE AND IMPROVE THE CARE OF SURGICAL PATIENTS THROUGHOUT THE STATE. THE LASQC IS A COLLABORATION BETWEEN THE LOUISIANA ALLIANCE FOR PATIENT SAFETY (LAPS) PATIENT SAFETY ORGANIZATION (PSO) AND PARTICIPATING HOSPITALS. THE LASQC SEEKS TO CONTINUALLY IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF SURGICAL CARE, PREVENT COMPLICATIONS, AND ELIMINATE PATIENT HARM AT ALL LOUISIANA HOSPITALS USING A PATIENT-CENTERED APPROACH THAT IS BOTH DATA-DRIVEN AND COST-EFFECTIVE. THE GOAL OF THE COLLABORATIVE IS TO WORK THROUGH BARRIERS TO ACHIEVE UNIVERSAL PARTICIPATION OF THE SURGERY STAFF, AND THE INITIAL FOCUS OF THE COLLABORATIVE IS ON BUILDING CHANGE MANAGEMENT SKILLS RELATIVE TO THE ADOPTION OF THE SURGICAL CHECKLIST. THE COLLABORATIVE WILL FOSTER AN ENVIRONMENT OF COLLABORATION, LEARNING AND INNOVATIVE INQUIRY IN ORDER TO ACHIEVE ITS GOALS. THE LASQC WAS ESTABLISHED IN 2019 AND INITIALLY WAS PARTIALLY FUNDED THROUGH GENEROUS GRANTS FROM BLUE CROSS BLUE SHIELD LOUISIANA AND THE LOUISIANA HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION EDUCATION AND RESEARCH FOUNDATION. THIS FUNDING SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCES FINANCIAL BARRIERS FOR LOUISIANA SURGEONS AND HOSPITALS WISHING TO PARTICIPATE IN, AND BENEFIT FROM, THE PROGRAM. TO GAIN CONFIDENTIALITY PROTECTIONS FOR THE DATA THAT IS COLLECTED, THE LASQC COLLABORATIVE WILL FUNCTION WITHIN THE LOUISIANA ALLIANCE FOR PATIENT SAFETY (LAPS) PATIENT SAFETY ORGANIZATION (PSO); THEREFORE, ALL PARTICIPATING HOSPITALS WILL NEED TO BE, OR BECOME, A MEMBER OF THE LAPS PSO FOR THIS COLLABORATION.
