California Health Care Safety Net Institute
The California Health Care Safety Net Institute (SNI) is the quality improvement affiliate of CAPH. Established in 1999, SNI has had great success in helping our 19 public hospitals enhance patient care and efficiency by designing and directing grant-funded initiatives and connecting improvement teams with critical partners and resources. Our public hospital systems provide essential care to millions of Californians, but they do so with extremely limited funds and lean staffing. SNI offers our members needed support to develop innovative strategies, share best practices, and obtain expertise and peer support that enable them to achieve their potential as integrated delivery systems that can better manage and coordinate patient care. SNI’s areas of focus include chronic care management, redesigning patient visits, eliminating health care disparities, and using operational efficiency approaches to improve quality and effectiveness.
