Doctors want to ensure their patients receive the best possible treatment. With this in mind, their daily work is committed to quality assurance by means of case discussions, further training, reviewing standards of treatment etc. This commitment to quality is still insufficiently perceived by the general public and politicians, particularly in the ambulatory sector. This is where the “Q-Monitoring of ambulatory care in Switzerland” project (“Q-Monitoring”) plays an important part: using statistics, it aims to illustrate the spectrum of quality activities already being performed by doctors specializing in ambulatory treatment.
