Transforming Service Delivery

We design and implement solutions to advance the health of individuals with fewer financial resources and those that have been disenfranchised by the health care system. Our work is focused on four areas – all conducted through the lens of health equity.

Working directly with health care service providers and payers on quality and practice transformation, we transform service delivery and performance by:

  • Redesigning systems of care
  • Supporting practice transformation
  • Educating and training payers and providers
  • Delivering technical assistance
  • Providing new, innovative tools
  • Conducting applied research and evaluation/analytics
