Overview
In
2011, NQF subcontracted with an independent third-party evaluator, SPEC
Associates, to assess the initial impact of the National Priorities Partnership
(NPP). NPP’s work to date has included
consultative support to the Department of Health and Human Services on national
priorities and goals, as well as leadership in catalyzing action and public-
and private- sector alignment around the National Quality Strategy.
The
evaluation’s research questions focused on the following:
- NPP’s initial
development of national priorities and goals
- The broader healthcare community’s awareness and adoption of
national priorities and goals
- An exploration of the preliminary impact of national
priorities and goals on systems change
To
prepare for data collection and analysis, SPEC Associates worked in concert
with an Evaluation Advisory Panel to devise a theoretical
framework and overarching
evaluation questions. Five case studies were undertaken to provide descriptive,
contextual, and on-the-ground insight on how these organizations used NPP’s
earlier priority
setting efforts to guide or amplify their work advancing national priorities:
This
work was supported by a contract from the Robert Wood Johnson
Foundation.
