HIVQUAL
HIVQUAL is a HRSA-sponsored national capacity-building project to help HIV care facilities build and sustain quality improvement programs among Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program Part C and Part D grantees. Built upon a model of quality improvement consultation that was developed in New York State, the goal of HIVQUAL is to improve the quality of care delivered to persons living with HIV. Care is monitored using a sampling strategy that promotes self-assessment through standardized record review, and participants are coached to identify performance improvement opportunities and conduct projects for performance improvement.

LAB TRACKER™ HIV has a built-in HIVQUAL Markers 3 Report that is available to all LAB TRACKER users that provides the ability for clinics to promote a continuous quality improvement program for their patients by tracking:
| Active Patient Count | PCP Prophylaxis | Hepatitis C Screening |
| CD4 Count | Lipid | HCV, Alcohol Education |
| Viral Load | PPD Screening | Hepatitis A Screening |
| ARV Mgt (Stable) | Pelvic Exam | Syphilis Screening |
| ARV Mgt (Unstable) | Pap Smear | Chlamydia Screening |
| End Stage | Mental Health | Gonorrhea Testing |
| Treatment Adherence | Substance Abuse | Dental Exam |
| Treatment Education | Tobacco Use |
