Health Quality Partners (HQP)

HQP is a health care R&D organization dedicated to building more effective models of preventive care. We specialize in creating models that prevent avoidable complications of chronic disease and aging. Through disciplined design, systems thinking, advanced data analytics, and human factor engineering we have implemented models proven in rigorous trials to significantly improve health outcomes and reduce health care costs on a population basis. Our most recent work integrates this capability into primary care practices.

There are multiple ways to partner with HQP depending on your organization’s aspirations for impacting population health:
