Transformation Support
The RI Practice Transformation Network is a network of clinicians, practice managers, local stakeholders from all facets of the health care system and RIQI trained staff – a collaborative network of stakeholders working to transform the health care delivery system for optimal patient care in a value-based environment.
Transforming Clinical Practice Initiative (TCPI)
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) awarded RIQI an $8.3 million grant to set up a practice transformation network through its Transforming Clinical Practice Initiative (TCPI). TCPI is an opportunity for clinicians to improve patient health outcomes and quality of care while preparing for success under alternative payment models such as accountable care organizations (ACOs) that tie reimbursement to value and not volume. Eligible practices receive assistance at no cost.

Exemplary Practices
RIQI has been working with over 1500 clinicians (specialists and primary care) for the past 4 years as part of the Transforming Clinical Practice Initiative (TCPI). Our TCPI work has given the opportunity for clinicians to improve patient health outcomes and quality of care while preparing for success under alternative payment models such as accountable care organizations (ACOs) that tie reimbursement to value and not volume.
In an effort to highlight the significant work and success of these clinicians and their respective practices, we have partnered with some of our “Exemplary Practices” to tell their stories to the community – payers and patients alike. Please take a look at these great stories about patient and family engagement, innovations and improvement in patient care:
