Partner with the Kansas Healthcare Collaborative
The Kansas Healthcare Collaborative (KHC) was founded in partnership.
In 2008, the Kansas Medical Society and the Kansas Hospital Association, Kansas’ statewide associations for hospitals and for physicians, came together to form what they envisioned would become THE trusted source for relevant and meaningful health care quality improvement education, evaluation, and measurement.
Through this rare partnership, KHC has for more than a decade proudly served 120+ Kansas hospitals and 1,000+ providers at 200+ clinics across the state—with hands-on technical assistance, education, and other resources tailored to each provider’s unique needs to best serve their patients and community.
KHC is continually seeking new partnership opportunities as health systems and the quality improvement landscape evolve. We are interested in cultivating partnerships that support common goals that improve the health of Kansans.

Statewide Relationships and Trusted Leadership.
KHC’s reputation as the trusted quality improvement resource in Kansas begins with the close partnership and support of the largest member organizations for both doctors and hospitals. After more than 10 years of work rooted in provider leadership and our team’s expertise, KHC has established valuable, productive relationships with hundreds of health care professionals across Kansas. In fact, KHC has more quality improvement partnerships with hospitals than any other state.
KHC’s collaborative model enables health care organizations to more rapidly advance and achieve meaningful, evidence-based changes and positive outcomes. Recent examples include four years leading Kansas’ Practice Transformation Network (more about our PTN), eight years leading our state’s Hospital Engagement Network and Hospital Improvement Innovation Network (more about our HIIN), and a decade working closely with the Kansas Department of Health and Environment on a variety of population health initiatives.
