As part of Pediatrics in Review's ongoing focus on quality improvement, we present a self-assessment exercise taken from the American Academy of Pediatrics' Ambulatory Care Quality Improvement Program (ACQIP). A previous exercise and a description of the program were published last year.1 Tabulated responses of pediatricians who completed this exercise as part of the ACQIP program will be published next month, allowing readers to see how their own answers compare and providing material for thought and discussion.
