Kansas Healthcare Collaborative is a nonprofit 501(c)3 organization dedicated to transforming health care through patient-centered initiatives that improve quality, safety, and value. KHC was formed in 2008 by the Kansas Hospital Association and the Kansas Medical Society to act as a resource and continually enhance care provided to Kansans and to become the trusted source for relevant and meaningful health care quality improvement education, evaluation, and measurement. KHC's mission is to engage and align providers and stakeholders to establish Kansas as a role model for health care quality and a top-performer in health care outcomes. KHC believes that: • Those who deliver health care are responsible for leading quality improvement. • Collaboration leads to developing, sharing, teaching and learning effective approaches proven to deliver the best possible health care. • Effective utilization of meaningful, patient-oriented analytics and objective reporting promotes excellence in health care.
