AIM for Excellence: Promoting Health Care Quality in the Outpatient Setting

Project Overview
Chronic diseases such as heart disease, stroke and diabetes account for about 70 percent of all U.S. deaths and approximately 75 percent of health care costs each year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. To combat these staggering statistics, the Dallas-Fort Worth Business Group on Health (DFWBGH) has partnered with American Airlines and UnitedHealthcare on a new health care improvement project that aims to enhance the quality, efficiency and outcomes of care in the outpatient setting.

Project Support
This demonstration project is supported by an educational grant from Sanofi Aventis and in-kind services from UnitedHealthcare.
