Seven teams from across the state have been named to participate in the 2015-16 Clinical Quality track of the Kanof Institute for Physician Leadership – also known as CQU. Each team, which includes one physician, will undertake a project aimed at improving the quality of care provided to patients. The 12-month program consists of a mix of face-to-face learning at the North Carolina Medical Society (NCMS) Center for Leadership in Medicine in Raleigh, NC, as well as webinars and coaching.
