Network for Regional Healthcare Improvement

Membership in NRHI is open to all Regional Health Improvement Collaboratives. NRHI defines a Regional Health Improvement Collaborative as:

A non-profit organization,
which is working to improve healthcare quality and value,
in a specific geographic region of the country (typically either a metropolitan region or state),
through a collaborative effort of healthcare providers and other stakeholders. There are four primary types of healthcare stakeholders:
- healthcare providers, i.e., hospitals, physician groups, physicians, home health agencies, nursing homes, clinics, etc.;
- healthcare payers, i.e., health insurance plans, public programs such as Medicaid, and employer groups that directly contract with providers;
- healthcare purchasers, i.e., employers who purchase health insurance for their employees; and
- healthcare consumers or consumer organizations.
The Board of Directors of NRHI will review membership applications from organizations to determine whether they qualify as Regional Health Improvement Collaboratives. Organizations that have been designated as Chartered Value Exchanges by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services or as the lead organizations in Aligning Forces for Quality communities by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation will automatically be considered to qualify as Regional Health Improvement Collaboratives.
