IHI Soliciting Abstracts for Scientific Symposium

The Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI) is soliciting abstracts for presentation at their 19th Annual Scientific Symposium on Improving the Quality and Value of Health Care. The Scientific Symposium is an all-day event during the IHI National Forum on Monday, December 9, 2013, in Orlando, FL.

The purpose of the Scientific Symposium is to attract the very best work in the field of health and health care improvement. This event is ideal for anyone interested in applying scientific methods to improvement in health care. Ideal abstract submissions may include results of studies that apply innovation, testing, or implementation to improve health or health care at a local, regional, or national scale. The IHI is also looking for analytic, time-series, statistical process control, qualitative, and mixed-method studies. In general, we're interested in method or measurement development work that aims to advance the field.

Abstracts are due September 15.
