The Institute for Health Care Research and Improvement (IHCRI) was established in 1999 to improve the quality of health care across Baylor Health Care System. In support of that mission, the IHCRI conducts and supports research related to clinical effectiveness, patient safety, and health care quality improvement. Our team of medical professionals designs, proposes, and publishes clinically important research.
