Quality Improvement in Action
Saint Agnes Pediatrics Surpasses Its 2026 Childhood BMI & Counseling Goal
A focused team effort helped Saint Agnes exceed a more ambitious organization-wide performance goal.
Congratulations to Dr. Bhabi Rai and the Saint Agnes Pediatrics team on a successful Plan-Do-Study-Act initiative.
88.89%
Performance as of May 2026

2026 performance goal—surpassed
+23.05
Percentage-point improvement since early 2025
A meaningful milestone
From January–March 2025 to January–May 2026, the team improved performance by 23.05 percentage points. The achievement is especially meaningful because the organization-wide target rose from 75% in 2025 to 87% in 2026—and Saint Agnes still exceeded it.
What does BMI & Counseling include?
Each qualifying visit requires documentation in all three areas:
- BMI percentile documented
- Diet and nutrition counseling documented
- Exercise and physical-activity counseling documented
What made the difference
The Saint Agnes team strengthened the workflow through clear training, a provider double-check before charts were closed, and regular reinforcement during monthly staff meetings. Simple, consistent steps helped turn a challenging goal into a real result.
