Getting to proven: evaluating quality across all of palliative care.
In this letter, Kamal calls for the development of quality measures for palliative care, paying attention to procedures, multidisciplinary team members who perform multidomain assessments, the new settings of care where quality measurement should be tailored, and the care models that transition across generalist and specialist palliative care.

Assessing quality improvement in health care: theory for practice.
The authors reviewed the role of theory as a means to enhance the practice of quality improvement (QI) research and to propose a novel conceptual model focused on the operations of health care. They concluded that such a theory can promote opportunities for moving the field forward and organizing the planning and interpretation of comparable studies.
