Welcome to AQAF
Welcome to AQAF
We are a non-profit business working to improve healthcare quality. The patient is at the center of everything we do. We achieve our objective in two ways. One, we give patients the tools to be better informed and to actively participate in their own healthcare. And two, we give providers the technical assistance they need to deliver safe, effective and efficient care. This is our mission and we are passionate about it. Take a tour of our web site to see what we can do for you.

To do this, we study anything and everything about the health of these communities in order to better understand their healthcare needs. Demographics, socio-economics, environment, you name it. Then, we put together a detailed assessment and plan for how healthcare providers can better serve their communities through awareness, education and promotion.
