The Kentucky Institute for Patient Safety and Quality (KIPSQ) is an organization dedicated to improving the safety and quality of patient care throughout Kentucky.
Health care providers considering working with a PSO are advised to review the HHS directory to ensure the entity’s PSO certifications have been accepted.
The KIPSQ PSO is a way for health care organizations to have quality and patient safety related data federally protected as confidential, privileged, and protected from legal discovery to assure a robust quality improvement environment. KIPSQ will also enable organizations to participate in shared learning to foster improvements in the processes used to deliver patient care.
