Quality Improvement Initiatives

Quality Improvement Initiatives:

In 2007, under the leadership of Kurt Elward, MD, MPH, the Foundation created TO GOAL: Together Obtaining Guidelines Optimization, Adherence and Lifestyles™, a physician-driven approach to clinical care quality improvement. This model for improvement optimizes the Maintenance of Certification process for primary care physicians by implementing an integrated practice team approach that addresses: system redesign, patient adherence, EMR optimization, and ancillary staff engagement while focusing on improving patient care for a particular chronic disease.  To date, the Foundation has successfully implemented 3 programs and engaged over 200 physicians using this model:  TO GOAL™: Phase I, IMPACT: Improving Asthma Care and Treatment™, and IMPACT™ Pediatrics.
