United Way works every day to advance the common good by focusing on the building blocks for a better life – education, income and health. We want to thank the United Way of Greater Cincinnati for its ongoing financial support of the Health Collaborative and its initiatives.
Physician Practices
YourHealthMatters collects information from physician practices that have chosen to voluntarily participate in this initiative. These providers are willing to give the public access to objective information about their quality of care, and who are committed to improving it. By publicly reporting their clinical diabetes and cardiovascular disease results, they are demonstrating their commitment to providing quality to their patients and to our community. Through such excellent leadership, we have been greatly assisted in helping Greater Cincinnati become a national model for health care improvement.
