The Networks are critical to achieving bold CMS goals for health care transformation. The successful Networks will be patient care navigators and lead transformation by:
- Serving as conveners, organizers, motivators, and change agents;
- Leveraging technology to provide outreach and education;
- Serving as partners in quality improvement with patients, practitioners, health care providers, other health care organizations, and other stakeholders;
- Securing commitments to create collaborative relationships;
- Achieving and measuring changes at the patient level through data collection, analysis, and monitoring for improvement;
- Disseminating and spreading best practices including those relating to clinical care, quality improvement techniques, and data collection through information exchange; and
- Participating in the development of a CMS national framework for providing emergency preparedness services.
