Provider information
KP’s Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPG) are developed through the KP National Guideline Program and subsequently operationalized at KPHI. CPGs are based on the best available clinical evidence. The KP National Guideline Committee reviews relevant evidence and authors each CPG. KPHI adopts or adapts these evidence-based guidelines and operationalizes these clinical recommendations considering the needs of KPHI’s membership. When implemented, these guidelines help to reduce unwarranted variation in care and improve clinical outcomes.
To ensure evidence-based recommendations, guidelines incorporate the following framework and tools:
- The GRADE (Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation) framework is used to systematically evaluate the quality of a body of evidence and assign an appropriate strength to each recommendation.
- The AGREE (Appraisal of Guidelines Research and Evaluation) II tool is used to assess the methodological quality of existing clinical practice guidelines being considered for adoption into the NGP portfolio.
- The ROBIS (Risk of Bias in Systematic Reviews) tool is used to assess the methodological quality of existing systematic reviews being considered for use in answering clinical questions.

Kaiser Permanente Hawaii maintains a Quality Improvement Program to evaluate the quality of care provided to members for continuous improvement. Each year, strategic clinical and service goals are established to help improve members’ health care. Information including members’ health status, care provided to members with certain chronic conditions, and the number of members receiving recommended preventive care can be obtained from the electronic medical record for regular evaluation of performance to make changes when necessary. Members are also surveyed on how they feel about the quality of care they receive to assist in determining when and how to improve care.
Since 1995, Kaiser Permanente Hawaii has been accredited by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA), an independent not-for-profit organization dedicated to measuring the quality of America’s health care. Accreditation is subject to renewal every three years.
Kaiser Permanente Hawaii also participates in a number of independent reports on quality of care and service so that members and the public have reliable information to better understand the quality of care delivered at Kaiser Permanente Hawaii, as well as a way to compare Kaiser Permanente Hawaii performance to other Hawaii health plans. Publicly reported performance data, including patient safety, are available at the following Web sites:
- NCQA Health Plan Report Cards
- NCQA Patient Centered Medical Home (PCMH) recognition of primary care clinicians and practices
- The Joint Commission hospital accreditation status and core performance measures
- Hospital Safety Grade
