A Quality Strategy to Advance the Triple Aim in California's Medicaid Program.

The California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) administers the nation's largest Medicaid program. In 2012, DHCS developed a Quality Strategy modeled after the National Quality Strategy to guide the Department's activities aimed at advancing the Triple Aim. The Triple Aim seeks to improve the patient experience of care and the health of populations as well as reduce the per capita cost of health care.
