Quality and consistency are inexorably linked. This course offers physicians the tools and tactics they need to create consistent systems, processes, and quality outcomes – along with some insight into the history of quality in medicine.
The course is structured to tell the story of how health care used to be, how it is today, and how it could be tomorrow (depending on the industry’s commitment to quality). Lessons are delivered through a series of video lectures, downloadable resources, recommended reading, and interactive moments that allow participants to practice with the skills and insights they develop throughout the course.
Learning Objectives:
- Assess the impact of financial and quality disruptors driving a consumer-centric health care system.
- Examine the elements of quality improvement theories and frameworks.
- Understand how the history of quality and safety have impacted current health reform.
- Identify the components needed to develop a culture of training.
