FMEC is Launching New Projects
New FMEC projects will be announced at today’s meeting.
- The FMEC’s new Whole Person Care Performance Improvement Learning Collaborative aims to educate physicians about the benefits, rationale, and implementation of whole-person care while assessing physician and patient interest in adopting this approach to health and wellness. The project will teach best practices for successfully integrating the Personal Health Inventory (PHI) and HOPE note tools into routine clinic visits. All clinics are welcome! Email Rebecca Bouck for more information.
- A new learning collaborative to address medical-dental collaboration, with a specific focus on connecting veterans to oral health, behavioral health and social services, will launch this fall. We need project leaders and learners!
- And finally, the FMEC is setting up a new Learning Network Advisory Committee to help plan and what the FMEC does to connect and convene residency programs for collaboratives and shared learning.
Contact Scott Allen for more information on these projects.
