UC Center for Health Quality and Innovation Offers New Health Fellowships

The University of California Center for Health Quality and Innovation (CHQI) is offering a new UC Health Fellowship program.

The program provides support for projects that will adopt cost-saving innovations in care delivery while improving quality at UC Health, and provides leadership opportunities for UC Health staff and faculty. Any staff or faculty employed by a UC medical center, clinic, or health professional school may apply. The program expects to make three to five awards of $50,000 to support a portion of the salary and benefits associated with time spent on the project.

Proposals are due November 14, 2011. Potential applicants with questions or concerns are encouraged to contact Aleta Martinez at aleta.martinez@ucop.edu to schedule time with CHQI Executive Director Terry Leach.
