A pesar de las dificultades para hallar una definición universalmente aceptada, el concepto de calidad de la atención en salud está vinculado a la satisfacción de las necesidades y exigencias del paciente individual, de su entorno familiar y de la sociedad como una totalidad. Se basa en la organización de un cambio cuyo objetivo es lograr niveles de excelencia en las prestaciones eliminando errores y mejorando el rendimiento de las instituciones.
