For the past several years, NAPH has developed a close relationship with the Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI) in order to bring the full benefit of IHI’s quality training courses to the NAPH membership.

NAPH is one of NQF's many members, which includes a wide variety of healthcare stakeholders, including consumer organizations, public and private purchasers, physicians, nurses, hospitals, accrediting and certifying bodies, supporting industries, and health care research and quality improvement organizations.

Kaiser Permanente’s Community Benefit Fund has been a major supporter of NAPH’s quality improvement agenda and provides a generous grant for NAPH members to attend IHI quality and performance improvement courses.

NAPH has joined more than 165 organizations in endorsing the Stand for Quality recommendations.
