Koh, MD, MPH Assistant Secretary for Health November 6, 2010 Priority Areas for Improvement of Quality in Public Health Improving the health of our nation remains a noble societal goal. Yet, for too long, people across America have not reached their full health potential. We need revitalized efforts to move toward a healthier nation. The advent of the Affordable Care Act serves as a catalyst for such change by promoting quality, access to care, and community and clinical prevention. We should maximize this transformative opportunity to elevate the health of our society. Improving quality lies at the heart of the Affordable Care Act. At this critical time, we should synthesize lessons learned from the seminal work in quality initially established in the healthcare arena and also broaden quality improvement efforts that can apply to populations. This will require commitment and coordination from many sectors of society, an approach requiring “health in all policies”. It will also require a vision that links quality, prevention, treatment and access to care.

    SPECIAL REPORT OF THE PRESIDENT JOSIAH MACY JR. FOUNDATION 2008–2018 May 2018 I Josiah Macy Jr. Foundation 44 East 64th Street, New York, NY 10065 Thank you to grantees, Macy Faculty Scholars, and www.macyfoundation.org others who provided the photos used in this report. CONTENTS 2 Chairman’s Foreword 4 Board of Directors 6 President’s Overview 13 Macy Program Highlights 14 Board Grants 26 President’s Grants 34 Macy Faculty Scholars 48 Macy Conferences 62 Other Macy Publications 66 Lessons Learned 72 Staff 1 2 Chairman's Foreword — CHAIRMAN’S FOREWORD — In January 2008, at his first board meeting, George Thibault assessed the environment of the nation’s health care system and current education for health care professionals and then provided a vision for change in the education system. The board, composed of leaders in health professions education, academic leaders, and business people, was riveted by what he laid out for us. It was a road map for the next decade that in retrospect needed little revision. That being said, it called on the Macy Foundation to take an even more engaged role in redefining how we approach education and how we were to be the agent of change, most notably in the realm of interprofessional education, curriculum development, and faculty leadership development. Every foundation board wants to know the impact, merit, and validity of its grantmaking. In 2017, the Macy Foundation engaged the Center for Effective Philanthropy, leaders in the field of measurement. It was a gratifying moment to receive their report which placed us within the top five of all 250 foundations they have surveyed for the impact of our grants over the last decade.
