Overview

Mission

Health quality forum was formed for charitable, scientific, and educational purposes associated with improving the quality of health care in Ohio's communities and improving the healthcare of residents. Hqf was established by health action council to focus employer efforts and engage other stakeholders - health plans, physicians, hospitals, the pharmaceutical industry - to improve the quality and efficiency of healthcare, resulting in enhanced population health.

What it reported doing in 2024

Healthy kids campaign - where we partner with the Ohio high school athletic association (ohsaa) to promote the importance of completing annual wellness visits, getting preventable disease immunizations, making healthy food choices, staying active, and enhancing health literacy. The partnership distributes health promotional materials.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 99% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
