[ORDiabCoalition] 2006 State Snapshots

[Sarah E BARTELMANN]

The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) has recently released the 2006 State Snapshops.  These State Snapshots provide State-specific health care quality information including strengths, weaknesses, and opportunities for improvement. The goal is to help State officials and their public- and private-sector partners better understand health care quality and disparities in their State.  This report is based on data collected for the National Healthcare Quality Report (NHQR).
