Quality Improvement Programs
MPHI’s Center for Precision Public Health (CPPH) has been approved by the American Board of Pediatrics (ABP) as a Pediatric Portfolio Sponsor for ABP Maintenance of Certification (MOC4) activities. This allows CPPH to work with partners to design and evaluate QI projects against ABP standards and award MOC4 credit to physicians at no cost. CPPH can design MOC and QI projects to be approved by the American Board of Family Medicine (ABFM), the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM), and other specialty Boards. Quality improvement projects increase access to health services for underserved populations and are offered at state, regional, and national levels.

Plain Community Health Consortium
The Plain Community Health Consortium (PCHC) project worked to help researchers better understand and involve Plain community members in health research. Using a survey developed and carried out by trusted community representatives, the project gathered input from Plain families about how they want to participate in healthcare decisions and research. The project identified effective ways to engage Plain communities and created a guide to help researchers partner with them in studies focused on rare diseases. As a result, Plain community members will have a stronger voice in research that affects their health, leading to more relevant care options, better access to diagnoses and treatments, and improved health and quality of life.

ECHO Facilitation
ECHO (Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes) is a model for facilitating learning and mentoring. It offers access to state and national content experts on a specific topic or content area. The ECHO facilitation model includes an opportunity for the learners to bring a barrier, challenge, or problem in practice forward for the group to discuss and offer suggestions or new approaches. The ECHO model allows and structures the sessions for two-way communication between the content expert and the learner. ECHO facilitation projects address health equity, improving access to care, and increasing knowledge. The motto is, All Teach. All Learn.
