Founded in 1991, the Institute for Healthcare Improvement began in the late 1980s through a group of visionary individuals committed to redesigning health care into a system without errors, waste, delay and unsustainable costs. Since then, the Cambridge, Massachusetts-based institute has grown into a self-sustaining organization with worldwide influence.
The organization created the Triple Aim, a framework for optimizing health system performance by simultaneously focusing on the health of a population, the experience of care for individuals within that population and the per capita cost of providing that care.
The Institute for Healthcare Improvement is an influential force in health and health care improvement in the United States and has a rapidly growing footprint in dozens of other nations, including Canada, England, Scotland, Denmark, Sweden, Singapore, Latin America, New Zealand, Ghana, Malawi, South Africa, the Middle East and elsewhere.
