The Clinical Quality Registry (CQR) Advisory Service
This is a national service currently being piloted by the SAHMRI Registry Centre. The project, funded by the Department of Health and Aged Care, under the National Clinical Quality Registry Program, supports the delivery of several projects with a central focus on promoting best practice and communicating health outcomes to the public.
The CQR Advisory Service is able to provide advice and support in the following areas:
- General enquiries from individuals or organisations considering establishing a CQR, assistance to determine if a CQR is an appropriate response.
- Advice and tools to assist establishment of a new CQR
- Advice and support regarding further development of existing registries seeking to move their registry closer to meeting the requirements of the Australian Framework for National CQRs
- Advice and guidance for CQRs seeking to undertake more advanced activities such as registry nested trials, data linkage studies, international collaborations and comparisons, strategic planning, audit review.
Engaging Consumers
In 2024–2025, The SAHMRI Registry Centre led the Consumer-Friendly Resources (CoFI) pilot project. This consumer co-design project aimed to create resources to empower the community to make informed decisions about their healthcare, using complex registry outputs. Funded by the Department of Health and Aged Care, the project was delivered in partnership with the Registry for Senior Australians (ROSA), The Australian Corneal Graft Registry (ACGR), and the Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) Registry.
Below is a user guide outlining a step-by-step process for other registries looking to co-design consumer resources, a final report detailing the purpose and outcomes of the CoFI Project, and the consumer-friendly resources developed through the project.
