ABSTRACT
Clinical benchmarking is a tool of CQI that can be used to improve outcomes in areas of strategic importance. While it is a simple tool, benchmarking requires a long-term commitment from the entire organization involved in its use to be successful. Benchmarking is a means of setting goals or targets. As a tool used for continuous quality management, benchmarking is an ongoing activity of comparing an organization's service, product, or process with similar ones outside the organization that are known to be the best. In attempting to emulate or surpass "best practice," an organization must set challenging but attainable goals and reach them with a plan of realistic and efficient actions.
