Military Health System (MHS) Medical Quality Assurance System (MQAS) Request for Information (RFI)

Background
The Military Health System (MHS) Medical Quality Assurance System (MQAS) Request for Information (RFI) seeks a centralized, integrated application for Medical Quality Assurance Activities and Records. The lack of flexibility, scalability, and adaptability of the current system severely limits the ability to perform functions related to clinical quality management, significantly impairing the capability to provide quality and safety oversight in these areas. The overarching goal is integration and deployment of a modern information technology system that standardizes and centralizes the medical staff management capabilities of credentialing and privileging and incorporates the HRM capabilities for DHA MTFs and the Services’ operational environment.

Work Details
The work involves replacing the current IT system, Centralized Credentials Quality and Assurance System (CCQAS), with a seamless integration and deployment of an IT system or suite of systems that standardize, centralize, and integrate the medical staff management capabilities of credentialing and privileging, and health care risk management for DHA MTFs and for the Service operational commands. The effort requires an innovative, cost-effective approach for migrating and/or archiving legacy data to guarantee accessibility for up to 50 years after cut-off date. The system should provide user access control enforced with Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) and multi-factor authentication, information access tracking, automated customizable workflows for decision support, document management, data storage with archive and retrieval functions, collaboration tools, notifications and alerts, data analysis, reporting and dashboard features, user access to system usage metrics, and release of information.
