AB  - What  is  “quality”?  Back  in  the  1970s,  it  meant  avoiding  negative  patient  outcomes  such  as  death,  disease,  disability,  discomfort,  and  dissatisfaction.  More  recently,  quality  has  meant  achievement  of  positive  objectives  such  as  care  consistent  with  knowledge,  maximization  of  the  quality  of  life,  maximization  of  duration  of  life,  achievement  of  desired  health  outcomes,  and  maximization  of  population  health.1
