citizens dedicated to improving the health of north carolinians
                       

Mission

The mission of the Institute is two-fold:

  • To seek constructive solutions to statewide problems that impede the improvement of health and efficient and effective delivery of healthcare for all North Carolina citizens

  • To serve an advisory function at the request of the Governor, the General Assembly, and/or agencies of state government, and to assist in the formation of public policy on complex and interrelated issues concerning health and healthcare for the people of North Carolina.

The Institute addresses this two-part mission through coordination and sponsorship of research, collection of information on major issues, the analysis of viable options, and the development of consensus within the membership of the Institute and the various stakeholders with respect to particular issues on a range of solutions which are in the best interests of the public.
