Getting better at getting better: Advancing quality and safety in healthcare

Scaling the innovative models of care, policies, practices, and technologies that deliver true value requires deliberate, focused effort. We need to simultaneously apply practical strategies that enable change agents to drive meaningful, sustainable impact to address particular challenges that a health system is facing, alongside implementing proven, evidence-informed approaches that broadly strengthen health system foundations. Both approaches matter; it's not about choosing between them. Rather, we need to respond to the health system's specific and immediate needs, while also growing culture, capacity, systems, and tools that enable transformation in quality and safety.

Abstract

Scaling the innovative models of care, policies, practices, and technologies that deliver true value requires deliberate, focused effort. We need to simultaneously apply practical strategies that enable change agents to drive meaningful, sustainable impact to address particular challenges that a health system is facing, alongside implementing proven, evidence-informed approaches that broadly strengthen health system foundations. Both approaches matter; it's not about choosing between them. Rather, we need to respond to the health system's specific and immediate needs, while also growing culture, capacity, systems, and tools that enable transformation in quality and safety.
