Forum on Pursuing Perfect Care

Chicago, IL US
June 3, 2026
By introducing and exploring the perfect care framework, this activity will equip learners with a shared language and conceptual model for understanding what ideal performance looks like across quality, safety, experience, and operational domains. Participants will examine how the framework applies to real challenges within UChicago Medicine, explore proven methodologies from within and beyond healthcare, and collaborate with peers across departments to identify opportunities for improvement. The goal is to move learners from awareness of isolated quality issues toward an integrated, systems-level approach to pursuing perfect care for every patient.

Target Audience

This activity is designed for members of the UChicago and UChicago Medicine health system who are interested in quality and safety, ranging across clinical and operational areas and including all levels from medical students and residents to staff and faculty. 

Learning Objectives

After this activity, participants will be able to:

  • Define the concept of perfect care within health systems.
  • Compare cross-industry methodologies that may accelerate progress toward perfect care.
  • Analyze healthcare quality and safety challenges through the lens of perfect care.
  • Apply elements of the perfect care framework to propose improvements in health system metrics and operations.
  • Critique institutional quality metrics and improvement frameworks using principles of perfect care.
  • Design an interprofessional improvement initiative aligned with the perfect care framework.
