Meaningful patient-centered care requires a cultural revolution in a fundamentally redesigned delivery system. With funding from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, Partner for Quality Care will help take the first steps of revolution in Oregon by assisting a cadre of patients and health care organizations in implementing structures for meaningful patient input at all organizational levels. Local faculty and experienced staff will provide intensive technical assistance to six organizations, as well as assistance to multiple organizations through print materials, webinars, and two statewide events. Intensive technical assistance will consist of mentoring and advising patient advisors, delivery system coaching and skills development, and small grants to assure success. Patient advisors and system leaders will share lessons learned and successes across the state.
