-Encourages research in and evaluation of the results of various organizational strategies designed to bring about quantifiable improvements in patient outcomes;
-Fosters the application of quality management science to patient care processes and clinical decision-making;
-Fosters cooperation and communication among health care providers, payers and regulators in their efforts to improve the quality of patient outcomes;
