LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR It is an honor to highlight MQA’s journey through the first quarter of FY 2024-25, showcasing both our performance and our pursuit of excellence. This report is not just a summary of statistics but a reflection of our innovative advancements and dedication to our mission. This quarter, MQA is proud to announce it was awarded the 2024 TaxWatch Productivity Award for the Nursing Program Portal (NPP). This revolutionary technology has substantially improved the management of nursing applicant educational records, allowing for automatic upload. This has saved MQA over 392 hours of manual labor, equating to over $6,000 in operational cost savings. With Nursing making up almost 50% of initial licensure applications this quarter, this has been a vital contribution to increasing MQA’s licensing efficiency. This expedited licensing process ensures nursing professionals can begin practicing in a timely way, providing patient care for Floridians. This report is a testament to the milestones we have reached together, and it serves as a call for continued collaboration. Your insights and contributions are invaluable as we move forward in our shared mission to elevate health care regulation and ensure the highest standards of care across Florida. Jennifer L. Wenhold, MSW, CPM Q1 • Quarterly Performance Report • FY 2024-25 2
