overview:
While quality is a common denominator and benchmark
across products and services it acquires a new dimension and criticality in
health care delivery in view of its direct impact on human lives and well
being.
Health care providers need to constantly measure their
standards in terms of internal processes and service quality to ensure that the
quality of health care delivery remains right on top and is not compromised in
any way.
Maintaining high standards in healthcare delivery is
not only an ethical commitment but also a hard marketplace reality, patients
and their families today are far more aware of their rights, privileges, availability
of healthcare solutions, costing and so on than in the past and demand value for
their money.
