Alignment
Alignment with respect to the process of ensuring that similar standardized quality measures are used consistently across different programs and sectors, both in government and private initiatives. This involves harmonizing measures so that they are compatible and comparable, which helps in providing clear and consistent information for patients, consumers, and stakeholders. Alignment is achieved when a set of measures works well across settings or programs to produce meaningful information without creating extra work for those responsible for the measurement.
