CAPC Launches the Third Round of The John A. Hartford Foundation Tipping Point Challenge
The Center to Advance Palliative Care (CAPC) has announced the launch of the third round of The John A. Hartford Foundation Tipping Point Challenge.
The John A. Hartford Foundation Tipping Point Challenge is an innovation and quality improvement challenge to spread palliative care skills among all clinicians. This round of the year-long competition focuses on two specific goals: 1) increase the number of specialties and disciplines enhancing their skills in communication and symptom management targeted to serious illness, and 2) catalyze innovation that will make positive, breakthrough change in the care of serious illness.
All health care organizations, settings, disciplines, and specialties across the US are invited to participate. Organizations competing in the clinical training category are automatically entered—the organization(s) with the greatest number of CAPC course completions will be declared the winner(s). To participate in the innovation category, organizations must submit an innovative initiative, already been implemented with proven outcomes. The submissions for this category will be rigorously vetted by an external panel of expert judges.
- Course completions for the clinical category must take place between November 1, 2022 - October 31, 2023.
- Submissions for the innovation category will take place throughout October 2023.
CAPC will announce the winners for both categories in March 2024.
