Care Transformation Definition: Reaching a Higher Standard of Care

Care Transformation is a comprehensive approach to:
- Improve quality and safety of care, the patient care experience and improve financial stewardship.
- Achieve zero defects by embedding evidence throughout the care process
- Support acceleration of change and rapid replication

- Disease specific—e.g. heart failure, acute coronary syndrome, diabetes
- Information and evidence drive—versus consensus opinion driven
- Holistic—examines all elements of cost and quality
- Measurable—produces quantifiable benefits
- Iterative—we never stop looking for new opportunities
