Welcome to the UMMS Clinical Quality Value Analysis (CQVA) Intranet site! The purpose of UMMS CQVA is to develop and implement an organized and systematic approach to determine the value of technology, products and services while supporting and complementing process improvement, improved outcomes, safety and quality practices, and financial stewardship. Our CQVA Program is multidisciplinary, consisting of clinical, supply chain, finance and other professionals. We have both System and Local level Committees.
