The National Priorities Partnership (NPP) is a collaborative effort of major national organizations that collectively influence every part of the healthcare system. Convened by the National Quality Forum (NQF) to address the challenges of our healthcare system, the Partners represent multiple stakeholders, including—among others—consumer groups, employers, government, health plans, healthcare organizations, healthcare professionals, scientists, accrediting and certifying bodies, and quality alliances.
Organizations selected for representation in NPP will augment the knowledge and expertise of the current Partners to ensure broad stakeholder representation and provide technical knowledge and implementation support. They will demonstrate understanding and support of the National Priorities and Goals and advocate for further alignment of their organization’s work with NPP.
The National Priorities Partnership released its report National Priorities and Goals: Aligning Our Efforts to Transform America’s Healthcare in November 2008.
