The USAID Health Care Improvement (HCI) Project builds on the technical leadership of the Agency's global efforts to improve health care quality since 1990 provided through the Quality Assurance Project (QAP) I, II, and III. The new five-year project supports the USAID Global Health Bureau and country missions to address significant challenges in raising the quality of health care in developing and middle income countries. 

Guided by the vision that health care can be significantly improved by applying proven quality improvement approaches, the project addresses key challenges facing global health: expanding coverage with essential services; making services better meet the needs of underserved populations, especially women; improving efficiency and reducing the costs of poor quality; and improving health worker capacity, motivation, and retention.

The HCI team includes prime contractor University Research Co., LLC (URC) and subcontractors EnCompass LLC, Family Health International (FHI), Initiatives Inc., Johns Hopkins University Center for Communication Programs (CCP), and Management Systems International (MSI).
