Care Oregon, a nonprofit Medicaid health plan, is transforming the delivery of care through its work with the Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI) as an Triple Aim initiative prototype site. By implementing two innovative programs designed to optimize care for its most high-risk members, Care Oregon is simultaneously improving enrollees' health, enhancing their health care experience, and reducing the per capita cost of care. In their pursuit of these three concurrent goals of the Triple Aim, Care Oregon and other participating sites serve as models and inspiration for health care systems across the globe.

Develop a plan for achieving the IHI Triple Aim at your organization by attending The Triple Aim: Optimizing Health Care Resources for the Good of a Population on April 14-15, 2011 in Boston, MA. During this groundbreaking seminar, you will learn a specific set of design concepts and work with IHI faculty to create an implementation plan. Faculty and presenters from Triple Aim prototyping teams, including Care Oregon, will share stories to illustrate how other organizations are utilizing the IHI Triple Aim framework and emphasize its application to the specific populations served by their organizations.
