| Authors' objectives | The objects of this review are to make professionals in healthcare organisations (HCOs) aware of the economic dimension of quality, to provide information on the cost of quality and non-quality, and to propose working tools for measuring the cost of quality. This report also updates the ANAES report published in 1998.

| Authors' conclusions | Looking ahead: To remedy the lack of information, studies must be carried out in a representative sample of French departments and HCOs: (i) to measure the cost of the main deficiencies of quality of care; (ii) to measure the cost of investing in quality in order to encourage HCOs in their quality initiatives and embed their quality functions.
