In the Pursuing Perfection project, the goals will be similar levels of performance that create a new level of hope and motivation for the entire health care industry and for the communities that depend on it. The Call for Proposals invites hospitals and physician groups throughout the United States to apply for selection as Pursuing Perfection grantees. During this period, with the assistance of the IHI and others, the 12 finalists will begin to improve a small number of highly important systems, and will develop specific proposals for two years of further work on systemic improvements. The entire IHI, including its faculty, its knowledge management systems, and its senior leaders, will help these six grantees achieve success. Tom Nolan and I will co-direct the Pursuing Perfection project.

I hope many will consider applying. In our 10 year history , the IHI has never tackled a more exciting project.
