STARS UNITE 2021-2022

The people who know best how to improve care are those who directly deliver care. Working together, interprofessional teams have an opportunity to learn how to simultaneously enhance patient outcomes, affordability, trust, and equity.

STARS UNITE 2021 builds upon the successful STARS program for medical students, which has engaged hundreds of medical students from across the U.S., to bring together interprofessional clinical teams that will improve care delivery through co-developed, sustainable solutions to improve patient affordability and equity.

WHAT IS STARS UNITE?

STARS UNITE is a free, 6-month program developed by Costs of Care, a non-profit organization dedicated to curating and broadly disseminating insights from the frontlines of health care to help delivery systems provide better care at lower cost. We will share the expertise of our interprofessional leadership team to guide health professional teams in creating value initiatives within clinical learning environments that improve affordability and equity of care. STARS UNITE teams will be coached to identify, plan, and begin to implement at least one project that serves their own communities through addressing appropriateness, affordability, and trust, with the ultimate goal of narrowing disparities in care delivery.
