Reaching the
Tipping Point
How can we use our skills and processes in ways that benefit patients who are suffering from a system that doesn’t adequately address their needs? It’s all about improving care quality.
That’s why the goals of CAPC’s third John A. Hartford Foundation Tipping Point Challenge are twofold: 1) to increase the number of specialties and disciplines enhancing their clinical skills, and 2) to catalyze innovation that will make positive, breakthrough change in the care of serious illness.

EVENTS
CAPC hosts member and open-to-all events throughout the year. We encourage you take full advantage, as these events provide technical assistance, build clinical and operational skill, share information and best practices, convene the field, improve access and awareness, and promote the ideas that grow out of the competition.
