Foundation For Health Care Quality (FHCQ)

Seattle, Washington, United States of America

Originally founded in 1988 to provide an independent review of a Community Health Information Management System, the Seattle-based Foundation has led dozens of evaluations ranging from use of comparison quality standards by consumers to supporting public health agencies in the surveillance of sudden health risks.

For over 30 years the Foundation has been a trusted, independent resource to all participants in the health care community – patients, providers, payers, employers, hospital leadership and government agencies. We believe that healthcare quality improvement is in everyone’s hands.

FHCQ is a non-profit organization made up of seven programs, the Robert Bree Collaborative, the Washington Patient Safety Coalition and four clinical Care Outcomes Assessment Programs (COAPs) and Smooth Transitions, all with the same goal: how can we provide safer, better care for patients.

FHCQ also undertake consultative projects that require discretion, sensitivity and political neutrality. Recent clients include One Health Port, Noridian, and Yale University.
