Special Invitation for Diplomates
CHCQM Diplomate Achievement Award


Now Accepting Applications for the 2023 CHCQM Diplomate Achievement Award!

Deadline for Applications: March 16, 2023



To recognize the achievements of our extraordinary Diplomates, ABQAURP presents the CHCQM Diplomate Achievement Award bi-annually in conjunction with our Annual Health Care Quality & Patient Safety Conference.

ABQAURP presents the Award to recognize the Diplomate that embodies the values of the medical profession through leadership, service, excellence, and integrity; demonstrating their commitment to advancing our mission to improve the quality of health care!

The award will identify leaders whose outstanding initiatives have led to measurable change in patient safety outcomes, provider and/or patient engagement, and overall quality improvements.

Submissions must be received by March 16, 2023.


As a member of the Award panel and our CME Committee Chair, Dr. Sunil Sinha calls on members to reflect on changes and innovations you have made. “Health care providers and researchers across the world worked tirelessly and collaboratively to get through the pandemic. This also provided an opportunity for innovation and ingenuity to help those in need in ways that have only been theorized or tested in limited ways. As we continue to work towards the ultimate objectives of prevention and cure, it is also an opportunity to reflect on the efforts of yourselves and others towards improving the quality and safety of health care. Please consider taking the time to make a nomination for this prestigious recognition of important work towards improving health care.”
