Aliados Health’s Quality Improvement Initiatives are guided by the Population Health Improvement Framework, centering equity-driven, evidenced-based strategies for collective impact. The PHIF framework advances practice transformation through collective leadership and the implementation of evidence-based standards. Aliados Health’s quality improvement efforts seek to improve care and outcomes through shared clinical guidelines, greater standardization of the electronic health record and use of clinical decision support tools, sharing of best practices, and utilization of initiative-specific QI resources.
