Internal Medicine Clinical Experience & Quality
The Clinical Experience and Quality (CEQ) program is made up of a team of systems engineers, data analysts and clinicians, working with faculty, staff and trainees across the University of Michigan Medical School Department of Internal Medicine on continuous quality improvement and safety projects to optimize patient care and safety.
