The Health Foundation is a charitable foundation working to improve the quality of healthcare across the UK and beyond. They aim to help shape a future healthcare system that offers safe, effective and responsive care for all, with a focus on closing the gap between what we know to be the best care and what patients routinely receive.
The HF fund projects, research and evaluation studies that test and measure new ways of improving health care. As an independent body, they are able to take a long-term view and to work across professional and national boundaries. The evidence generated from their work is used to influence healthcare policy and to achieve sustainable and widespread improvements in the quality of patient care for the future.
