The Institute for Better Health (IBH) was established to lead practical research and innovation in health service delivery and population health, support front-line providers to enable curiosity and discovery, and partner with patients, providers and the community to collaboratively create solutions to improve health.

Focused on generating cutting-edge science and innovation in health service delivery and population health, IBH leads practical research and innovation that shapes how we engage, design, deliver, and finance health care to solve problems stretching from the bedside to the system. IBH research seeks a deeper understanding of the nature of health and social problems in our community and to shape transformative innovations by working with our patients, providers, staff, and community members. IBH supports research conducted by frontline providers and seeks to foster a culture of innovation by the people who work here and across the system. IBH also partners with our community, working alongside academic, not-for-profit, industry, and systems partners in the pursuit of improving health through research and innovation.

Your generous support will help accelerate the institute's groundbreaking work and create a new kind of healthcare for a healthier community.
