Welcome to QualityNet Online
Home of the 2008 QualityNet Conference

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) invites you to attend this year's QualityNet Conference—Rising to the Challenge: New Heights in Healthcare Value and Quality—to be held at the Baltimore Convention Center in Baltimore, Maryland, August 26-28, 2008.

The 2008 QualityNet Conference will bring together national health care leadership from CMS, the 53 Medicare Quality Improvement Organization (QIO) contractors, the 18 Medicare ESRD Networks, and other public and private stakeholder organizations to discuss the new directions for quality improvement work at CMS. Topics to be covered include the administrative, financial, clinical, legal, and programmatic challenges that QIOs, ESRD Networks, and other quality improvement stakeholders will face as they work to empower providers in preventing illness, decreasing harm to patients, and reducing waste across the continuum of health care.

Join the rise to new heights in Medicare quality through the launch of the QIO Program’s new Statement of Work and the ESRD Networks’ continued commitment to improving dialysis quality.

Reminder! Certain training sessions require pre-registration due to limited space. Some sessions will be repeated. Please register for these trainings by clicking 'Register for training' on the menu at the left.
Attention! Please register prior to August 1st, 2008 as the hotels will cease to block rooms for our event on that date. However, please do not reserve blocks of rooms that you will not use, as this takes up space for others who will potentially need them. We have a conservative hotel room block this year and we will issue supplementary hotel information should the blocks fill. Also, please note that the Marriott hotel information distributed on the origional SDPS memo was updated. It will take place at the Marriott at CAMDEN YARDS.
Public Transportation: There are several options available for getting from the airport to the hotel and Convention center, including Shuttle Service and Light Rail. While public transportation may be the cheapest way to get from the airport to our event, we encourage attendees to exercise caution when deciding to make use of this system taking into account time of day and person vulnerability.
Parking: Paid parking is available at the convention center.
