Planning for Sustainability

Sustaining health initiatives requires smart planning from the beginning to ensure that they can survive and thrive after the initial funding, champions, and implementers have moved on. This presentation provides a framework for thinking about the range of resources necessary to sustain your work, and introduces tools for developing sustainability plans. Self-assessment tools are discussed as well as examples of effective sustainability strategies to move from initial plans and seed grants into long-term implementation.

Health System Reform

Health care represents 18% of the Gross Domestic Product. If left unchecked, health care could account for as much as one quarter of every dollar. The relationship between cost and quality of health care is clearly linked. Thirty percent or more of health care costs go to unneeded care or care that is wrong or delivered in the wrong setting (for instance, primary care in the ER). Conversely, more than half (about 55%) of recommended and necessary care is not provided at the right time. This is just one of many sobering statisics in this presentation that examines the possible options for health care reform in the United States.
