Transforming Health Care Policy and Practice

The opioid crisis, hospital errors, better treatments for diseases, access to health care for all. Gifts to the U-M Institute for Healthcare Policy and Innovation (IHPI) are helping us address the most pressing challenges and embrace the most exciting opportunities in health care today.

Your gift will help us develop, share, and implement evidence and insights that benefit individuals, families, and communities. Your support will fuel:

  • Research that anticipates and responds to real-world challenges
  • Opportunities to interpret and share findings with providers and policymakers
  • Efforts to address disparities in care
  • Training for the next generation of game changers

As the nation’s leading university-based institute of health services researchers, IHPI is focused on the quality, safety, equity, and affordability of health care services. More than 650 IHPI faculty members are leveraging big data to study health care and how to improve it — locally, nationally, and globally.

The potential to impact specific diseases and take on broad health care problems is boundless. Together, we can achieve a healthier tomorrow.
