MONAHRQ—My Own Network
People need access to local information about health care services. Patients and their families need to know about the quality of health care at local hospitals, the costs of elective surgery, and how to choose experienced providers. Many organizations have the information that can support these decisions. But developing a way to report it to the public is expensive and time consuming. MONAHRQ was developed by AHRQ to address this problem. MONAHRQ is a free software product that helps organizations generate their own healthcare reporting website quickly and easily. MONAHRQ reads in local data or measure results, analyzes and packages the information, provides website customization options, and generates a fully functioning reporting website for the organization to host. MONAHRQ can help any organization get up and running with public reporting—state and local data organizations, quality reporting collaboratives, hospital systems, health plans, and individual hospitals. MONAHRQ directly supports our mission to improve the quality, safety, efficiency, and effectiveness of health care for all Americans by helping provide people with information on the quality and costs of local health care.
