The Tennessee Foundation for Quality Patient Healthcare (TFQPH) is a certified 501(c)(3) not-for-profit foundation established by the Tennessee Medical Association in 2005 to create and administer programs to improve the quality of health care delivered in Tennessee and improve or develop programs with a direct impact on the physician-patient relationship.
Formally the Tennessee Medical Association’s Physician Resource Network, TFQPH continues to serve as a quality resource to physicians across Tennessee.
Programming
Established in honor of Dr. John Ingram, the institute aims to equip doctors with the necessary skills to lead effectively in the evolving healthcare landscape, including programs and resources that are tailored to meet the unique needs of physicians at various stages in their careers.
Physicians today face issues that require skills and knowledge they cannot acquire in medical school or residency training. The Ingram Institute for Physician Leadership fills this gap by training young physicians to become leaders in the healthcare team, in their profession and in their communities.
These programs encompass leadership development, strategic management, communication skills, and other essential leadership competencies. The curriculum is designed to empower physicians with the tools required to navigate organizational challenges, inspire teams, and drive positive change in healthcare delivery.
