I am Melody Parker with the Office for State, Tribal, Local and Territorial Support and I am joined here today by colleagues from OSTLTS. Trina Pyron and I will be co-moderating this call. Thanks for joining us today. This is our second call of 2013. The PIM Network is a forum that supports all NPHII performance improvement managers in learning from each other as well as from partners and other experts. These calls are a way for all of you, all the members in the Network, to learn about each other and share information about resources, training opportunities related to our work in quality improvement and performance management. We have received multiple requests from you to hear more about self-assessment work being done by your colleagues. But before I introduce our speakers, let’s review some of the technological features of today’s call. Trina, will you do that for us today? Trina Pyron: Thank you.
