"I love it when patients come in and they bring their list of questions, or they ask me ‘Should I have this test?’ or ‘Why are we doing this?’ That makes the relationship, that makes managing this chronic problem together, a lot better."

‒ Dr. E. Harry Walker
MetroHealth Center for Community Health

Research shows that patients with heart failure have four times the risk of bone fractures and 6.3 times the risk of hip fracture as other heart patients. If you have heart failure, ask your doctor about a bone density test to screen for osteoporosis.

About Us

Better Health Greater Cleveland is an independent, not-for-profit program established in 2007 under the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation’s Aligning Forces for Quality initiative. 
 

Its focus on electronic medical records-catalyzed public reporting of performance on nationally endorsed and locally vetted quality standards have made it a leader in the use of technology to drive improvements in health care delivery and clinical outcomes in primary care.

A region-wide Quality Improvement Learning Collaborative is a vital component of our work, leveraging data to identify opportunities and best practices in improving care and outcomes within a peer network of primary care professionals. 

Led by practicing physicians with more than a decade of e-health and quality improvement experience, Better Health leverages its community-wide network of clinical partners to offer education and on-site consultation to achieve meaningful change through health IT.
