High reliability organizations (HROs) are organizations that have developed methods for achieving safety despite hazardous conditions (e.g., the airline industry).

For this assignment, research the concept of HROs, and discuss how they can transform health care covering the following topics:

  • Discuss why little progress has been made in health care toward becoming an HRO.
  • Explain what improvements can be made or adopted by health care organizations that strive to become HROs, and discuss the role of the patient, provider, and other stakeholders.
  • Explain the potential interest of the payer in an HRO.

Your paper will be 3-4 pages, excluding cover page, abstract page, and reference page.
