Tracer methodology is the most prevalent part of The Joint Commission and Joint Commission International on-site accreditation survey process. Health care organizations also can use tracers to examine their own systems and processes, identify unwanted trends, and implement changes as part of an ongoing improvement process before a survey occurs.

But the best way to learn about tracers is through practice.

The Mock Tracer Workbook provides practical exercises to help domestic and international health care professionals practice skills needed to conduct an effective tracer in any health care setting. You'll receive:

Tracer exercises of individual, system-based, and program-specific tracers in all health care settings
Sample tracer questions
Tips for conducting effective tracers
