Design: Outline of the programme in general, and in Israel in particular, and description of the experience of implementing and evaluating the programme. Setting: Sixteen general hospitals on a local level and the country coordinating team on a national level, during 28 months (March 1991 to June 1993). Results: Fourteen hospitals, out of the 16 (or 87%) completed all the programme's phases. In most of these 14 hospitals there occurred an improvement in the quality assurance infrastructure (in general, and in the addressed topics in particular), an increase in committees designed to exert a monitoring function related to the quality of care and the acquisition of competence for the performance of quality assurance activities. Conclusion: The COMAC programme had a meaningful impact on Israeli hospitals participating in it. © 1996 Elsevier Science Ltd Articles nationallicence Quality assurance nationallicence implementation nationallicence evaluation nationallicence RONEN REVITAL The Fleischman Unit for the Study of Disability, Loewenstein Hospital-Rehabilitation Centre, Raanana, Israel aut ELDAR REUBEN The Fleischman Unit for the Study of Disability, Loewenstein Hospital-Rehabilitation Centre, Raanana, Israel aut International Journal for Quality in Health Care Oxford University Press 7/4(1995-12), 411-417 1353-4505 7:4<411 1995 7 intqhc https://doi.org/10.1093/intqhc/7.4.411 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI 1 research-article jats NATIONALLICENCE 856 40 https://doi.org/10.1093/intqhc/7.4.411 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI NATIONALLICENCE 700 1- RONEN REVITAL The Fleischman Unit for the Study of Disability, Loewenstein Hospital-Rehabilitation Centre, Raanana, Israel aut NATIONALLICENCE 700 1- ELDAR REUBEN The Fleischman Unit for the Study of Disability, Loewenstein Hospital-Rehabilitation Centre, Raanana, Israel aut NATIONALLICENCE 773 0- International Journal for Quality in Health Care Oxford University Press 7/4(1995-12), 411-417 1353-4505 7:4<411 1995 7 intqhc Metadata rights reserved CC BY-NC-4.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 nationallicence BK010053 XK010053 XK010000 NATIONALLICENCE NATIONALLICENCE NL-oxford
