Training
Interagency Institute for Federal Health Care Executives (IAI)
BACKGROUND
The Interagency Institute for Federal Health Leaders is a two-week course that has been offered semi-annually for seventy years. It is conducted under the sponsorship of the five federal health services, the Departments of the Army, Navy, Air Force, Veteran Affairs, and the US Public Health Service. The Institute is held under the auspices of the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences, Bethesda MD, with support from the Henry M. Jackson Foundation.
PURPOSE
The purpose of the Institute is to provide an opportunity for the seasoned, practicing federal health professional to examine some of the current issues in health care policy and management and to explore their potential impact on the federal health care system. The design of the course assumes a high level of conceptual knowledge and operating ability on the part of the participants. Given the intelligence and sophistication of these selected executives, the faculty maximizes the learning experience by presenting new materials resulting from research and experience, as well as examples and case studies from the contemporary national health policy decision-making process. Faculty members also seek involvement and interaction by the participants to stimulate understanding and communication across traditional agency boundaries.
OBJECTIVES
- To promote excellence in patient care by fostering the concepts of teamwork, evidence-based practice, application of information technology, outcomes-oriented performance improvement and responsible leadership.
- To provide a forum for the participating senior health leaders to present their views on the appropriateness of present and future courses of action related to health policy, management, practice, and academics.
- To provide an opportunity for the senior federal health care executive to examine the most pressing current issues affecting health care policy and management and the provision of health care services.
- To explore the potential impact of these issues and trends on the participants’ organizations and professional practices.
- To foster communication, sharing, mutual understanding and networking within the federal health care sector.
- To increase the level of enthusiasm and pride in the work of federal health care leaders in a variety of settings.
Upon completion of this course, attendees will be able to:
- Describe how political, policy, economic and management trends impact health care and population health and apply this knowledge in future planning.
- Evaluate actions/activities that should be addressed to promote excellence in patient care and health promotion, i.e., teamwork, evidence-based practice, application of information technology, outcomes-oriented performance improvement and responsible leadership.
- Identify opportunities for greater interaction among peers and associates in the federal agencies to improve interagency communications and patient services.
