“Since joining NPP, Planetree has added
a critical layer of perspective regarding patient-centered care and the
voice of the patient in meeting the goals of the NQS,” said NPP
Co-Chair Bernie Rosof. “I am very much looking forward to working
together with Susan as we continue to advance the goals of the National
Quality Strategy.”
As co-chair, Frampton will serve a
three-year term, co-leading the Partnership alongside Bernie Rosof.
The NPP partners collaborate with one another and with broader stakeholder groups to advance the NQS priorities and goals; demonstrate collective commitment to catalyze efforts around national priorities and goals; and seek opportunities to communicate with one another and stakeholders beyond NPP about aligning efforts with the NQS to improve health and healthcare.
Past NPP co-chairs include Don Berwick, former Administrator of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services; Peggy O’Kane, President of the National Committee for Quality Assurance; and Helen Darling, President of the National Business Group on Health. Bernie Rosof, MD, immediate past chair of the Physician Consortium for Performance Improvement convened by the American Medical Association, was named co-chair in 2010.

“We currently
have an unprecedented opportunity to meaningfully engage patients and
families in healthcare quality improvement efforts. I look forward to
working with Dr. Rosof, the NPP members and NQF staff as well as CMS’
Partnership for Patients to ensure that the voices of patients and
caregivers are the foundation of our improvement strategies," Frampton said.

“It has been a privilege to engage in
the immensely important work of the NPP,” said Helen Darling, outgoing
NPP co-chair, “and to work closely with Susan over the last two years on
the Readmissions Work Group. From that direct experience, I know she
will be a wonderful, inspired leader, and work so well with Dr. Rosof.
We are all thrilled that Susan has agreed to move into this role. I look
forward to continuing to work closely with her and Dr. Rosof to promote
the NPP’s goals of achieving healthy communities and safe, affordable,
and equitable care, including through the Partnership for Patients.”
