Greater Cincinnati Aligning Forces for Quality is among fourteen community-based programs around the country to take part in a $300 million initiative to spearhead health quality reforms through regional collaboratives.
The investment from the
Robert Wood Johnson Foundation comes following a national report from the
Dartmouth Institute for Health Policy and Clinical Practice showing serious deficiencies in the quality of U.S. health care.
As the largest effort of its kind ever undertaken by a U.S. philanthropic organization, the initiative will help physicians improve quality of care, give patients better information that will let them manage their own health, improve care within hospitals, and reduce inequalities in care for people of different races and ethnicities.
Over the next three years, the foundation will provide Greater Cincinnati Aligning Forces for Quality with more than $1 million, expertise, technical assistance and training.
