UAMS IPE IMMERSION PHASE CORE ACTIVITY
QUADRUPLE AIM PROJECT PROPOSAL
I. ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION
The Quadruple Aim Project Proposal is to be completed by eligible UAMS learners during the Immersion Phase. Eligible learners are those who have completed the Exposure Phase. The purpose of this activity is for interprofessional teams of students to work together to develop a project proposal that addresses a problem related to the Quadruple Aim. The interprofessional student team is responsible for developing the project proposal only. Teams will not be responsible for the implementation of the project. The Quadruple Aim has four goals:
1) patient care/patient experience improvement,
2) population health improvement,
3) healthcare cost reduction, and
4) provider satisfaction (professional wellness)
For more information on the Quadruple Aim, please CLICK HERE. A bank of project proposal ideas is available for each of the Quadruple Aim goals.
Guidelines for incorporation of the Quadruple Aim Project Proposal are set by each college/program.
The timing and method of students’ participation in the Quadruple Aim Project Proposal is assigned according to these college-‐specific guidelines.
Pathways to entry may include:
1) student self-‐selection of a project proposal or
2) individual college and/or program assignments or
3) student submission of project proposal and student-created team.
Teams will work collaboratively to develop their project proposal in the form of SMART Goals.
Teams will work with a Faculty Facilitator who mentors and supervises project proposal development and progress.
