This case study examines how the Atlanta Regional Collaborative for Health Improvement (ARCHI) uses a collective impact approach to reduce health disparities and create place-based systems change to build a healthy population living in a vibrant economy in the metropolitan Atlanta area so that all citizens have an equal opportunity for well-being.
The adopted Atlanta Transformation scenario focuses on seven core strategies — care coordination, capture and reinvest, expanding insurance, family pathways, healthy behaviors, global payment, and an Innovation Fund — and serves as the foundation of ARCHI’s agenda.
Aligning Systems for Health: Health Care + Public Health + Social Services, supported by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and managed by the Georgia Health Policy Center, is focused on learning from stakeholders across the nation about effective ways to align these three sectors to better meet people’s goals and needs.
