Care Delivery Transformation

Hospitals and health care systems are redesigning how they deliver care to better meet the needs of their patients and communities across their lifespans.

The American Hospital Association is supporting hospitals and health systems through each step of their care delivery transformation process. 

The Care Delivery Transformation Framework models how the components of the health care ecosystem support the development and implementation of innovative care delivery models and offers resources to help you develop and implement care models that will take your hospital into the future.
