Initiatives Healthcare

In 1999 Initiatives Healthcare began conducting research with universities which lead to creating better care for their hospitals and health-delivery systems, work that it still enjoys. More recently, Initiatives Healthcare developments hospitals and medical services in underserved rural communities. We continue to pursue opportunities to impact the quality of healthcare both at universities and in rural communities in the Intermountain West.
