The University of Michigan Health System will serve as the coordinating center for this new anesthesia-focused Collaborative Quality Initiative. Through the initiative, anesthesiologists, with their surgeon partners, will analyze variation in anesthesiology processes and techniques, and they will develop best practices to prevent and reduce complications.

This is the 15th hospital-based effort in the Michigan Blues’ CQI program.
