Which of the following is NOT a CPI measurement?

Donabedian’s framework guides CPI measurements into three domains: structure, process, and outcomes. Structure measures look at the setting of care—staffing, facilities, and equipment. Process measures track what care is actually delivered and how it’s performed, such as timely administration of antibiotics or adherence to care protocols. Outcomes measures assess the results of care, including infection rates, length of stay, readmissions, and patient satisfaction. “Quality” describes the overall excellence of care but isn’t a specific measurement category within this framework. It’s the goal you’re aiming to improve, not a standalone CPI metric. So the option that is NOT a CPI measurement is Quality.
