HealthARCH Program Opportunity

The Florida Department of Health’s Bureau of Chronic Disease Prevention (FDOH) and the University of Central Florida College of Medicine’s HealthARCH (HealthARCH) are partnering to create a learning collaboratives in select regions of the state. The collaborative aims to increase the performance of health systems in managing Hypertension and High Cholesterol through improved clinical processes, increased use of clinical quality measurement and the implementation of evidence-based intervention referral systems. Over a 12-month period participating health systems will receive education and in-depth technical assistance to operationalize best practices that enable providers to more effectively deliver better care and achieve improved outcomes. Additionally, participating health systems will implement a formalized patient referral program with community social service organizations.

The Learning Collaborative

The initial program region for the learning collaborative are the following Florida counties: Calhoun, Citrus, Dixie, Gadsden, Gulf, Hendry, Jackson, Jefferson, Leon, Levy, Liberty, Madison, Putnam, Taylor, and Union.
