This Resource Guide (Guide) is a publication for State agencies and policymakers, as well as other stakeholders, interested in implementing a State-level quality improvement collaborative that addresses a specific clinical concern such as various mental health conditions that affect the Medicaid population. A quality improvement collaborative usually consists of policy leaders and health stakeholders working toward a common goal of improving performance on a well-defined quality measure or set of measures. The core components of a quality improvement collaborative, including the importance of collaborative learning and making policy decisions based on evidence and sound data, are outlined in this Guide and illustrated by examples from the Medicaid Network for Evidence-based Treatment (MEDNET).
