  • Welcome to the H2H National Quality Improvement Initiative!

    The Hospital to Home (H2H) national quality initiative, cosponsored by the American College of Cardiology and the Institute for Healthcare Improvement, is an effort to improve the transition from inpatient to outpatient status for individuals hospitalized with cardiovascular disease. This site is the home of the H2H initiative, and serves as a national clearinghouse of best practices, tools, and strategies related to the transition process for cardiovascular patients. Enroll now to join a community of health care providers that are committed to improving care.

    Benefits to our participants include:
    • Access to national experts on issues related to care transitions
    • Curriculum-based learning environment which will include educational webinars led by the nation’s leading experts on readmissions and care transitions
    • Customizable implementation tools, strategies and systems to assist in improving patient care transitions

    H2H is intentionally broad-based and inclusive, incorporating the viewpoints of patients and family caregivers, clinicians across the continuum of care, integrated health systems, communities, policy-makers, and payers. This initiative provides an opportunity for us to achieve together what none of us can accomplish alone.

    H2H will not be successful without the participation of its esteemed Strategic Partners. Please visit the Strategic Partnership section to view the list of National Organizations and Quality Improvement Organizations (QIOs) that are committed to the H2H initiative.
