Faculty share their own transformation experiences with the TCPI community, including with Quality Improvement Advisors and enrolled practices to demonstrate that transformation is possible and that it improves how we deliver care. Some of the roles that faculty play in the program include: participating as speakers and panelists in in-person meetings (e.g., National Expert Panel, Quality Conference), TCPI pacing events, and other events; sharing the experience with Quality Improvement Activities (QIAs) and enrolled practices through PTN-led events; Consulting Practice Transformation Networks (PTNs); and supporting Alliance Networks (SANs) on transformation challenges.
