The
Medical Directors’ Institute (MDI) is a forum
created in 2002 by the ACC with the intention
of developing a collaborative approach to
important issues such as paying for quality,
utilization of imaging technology, health
information systems and value in healthcare.
Participants at past MDI meetings have included
health plan medical directors and cardiovascular
specialists. Thirty-two health plans have
been represented at past MDI meetings.
Direct
results of the MDI include the development
of pilot programs to recognize quality, the
appropriateness criteria work group, a core
set of mutually agreed upon performance metrics,
and disease management tools and principles.
To

MDI Reports.
