Not all of the performance measures sets that are sent to the ACCP for review and comment or approval will be applicable to the membership of the ACCP, and the workload of the Quality Improvement Committee (QIC) would be large if it reviewed them all.

For those that are not selected, the staff liaison will send a response to the developing or endorsing organization, thanking them for the opportunity, but respectfully declining, based on the fact that there are other organizations whose expertise would be more valuable to that particular review process.
