Ne x t StepsOhio Health Care Coverage and Quality CouncilConcurrent with this Plan’s development, in February 2009, Governor Ted Strickland issued an Executive Order creatingthe Ohio Health Care Coverage and Quality Council. The 30-member Council is charged with advising the Governorand General Assembly on improvements to health programs and policies; monitoring and evaluating implementation ofstrategies for increasing access and improving quality of the health care system in Ohio, and cataloging existing healthcare data reporting efforts, among other responsibilities. The recommendations contained in the Ohio Health QualityImprovement Plan will be presented to the Council at its first meeting (tentatively to occur in June 2009), with theexpectation that the Council and its members will act to facilitate the implementation of these recommendations, continueto incorporate tactics addressing the issues of disparities and workforce capacity, and propose other initiatives to transformand create a high-performance health care system in Ohio.Phase II of the State Quality Improvement Institute (SQII)Ohio has been invited by the Commonwealth Fund and AcademyHealth to participate in Phase II of the State QualityImprovement Initiative, which will begin in May 2009 and continue for 18-months. During this time, Ohio will haveadditional access to extensive technical assistance from nationally-recognized experts in health system transformation.The timing of SQII Phase II is ideal for Ohio in light of the creation of the Ohio Health Quality Improvement Plan and theOhio Health Coverage and Quality Council.25
