This course focuses on the knowledge and skills required to assure high quality, safe, and efficient family health care outcomes in a variety of practice settings. The PDCA (plan, do, check, and act) cycle for identifying need and planning change will be integral to course work. Current health policy including the impact of the PPACA as they relate to safe, high quality, effective, equitable, patient centered and efficient care will be addressed. Interdisciplinary team work, collaboration, and positive practice environments will be studied and assessed. Strategies for assuring accountability and reliability in care processes will also be studied, as well as considering healthcare access and cost. The work of key national and international regulatory, discipline specific and quality/safety oriented professional associations will be reviewed.
