The Healthcare Quality Improvement Partnership (HQIP) was established in April 2008 to promote improvement in health services, by increasing the impact that clinical audit has on healthcare quality in England and Wales and, in some cases other devolved nations. It is led by a consortium of the Academy of Medical Royal Colleges, Royal College of Nursing and National Voices.

The Partnership holds the contract to commission, manage, and develop the National Clinical Audit and Patient Outcomes Programme (NCAPOP). This consists of more than 40 clinical audits, registries and confidential enquiries that cover a range of medical, surgical and mental health conditions. Their purpose is to engage clinicians in systematic evaluation of their clinical practice against standards (often set by NICE), and to encourage improvement in the quality of care. This programme is gradually being extended to other areas of healthcare, working with clinical, patient and professional advisory groups.

HQIP also hosts the National Joint Registry which was set up to collect information in England and Wales on joint replacement operations and to monitor the performances of implants, hospitals and surgeons. Additionally, the Partnership works closely with a number of national and professional leadership bodies and organisations including the Care Quality Commission (CQC), National Institute of Health and Care Excellence (NICE), NHS England/Improvement, NHS Digital, Health Data Research UK, the Health Foundation, the Independent Healthcare Providers Network and the Private Healthcare Information Network, among others.

The Chief Executive Officer is Jane Ingham.[1] The Trustee Board of HQIP includes the following members: Professor Carrie MacEwen - chair, Alistair Henderson - vice chair, Phil Baker, Peter Bloomfield, Victoria Tzortziou Brown, Sarah Dunnett, Michael Chapman, Gill Coverdale, Janie Gabriel, Susan Masters, Miles Sibley.[2]
