The Rippel Foundation Information

To achieve better health, and contain costs, we must simultaneously improve population health and fundamentally redesign how we deliver care. The Rippel Foundation’s mission is to seed and support innovations at the frontiers of this challenging work. Grounded in the principles of our founding president, Julius A. Rippel, we fulfill this mission by cultivating and growing innovative initiatives that find lasting solutions to complex problems. Our three-part strategy encompasses: - targeted research and development projects; - partnerships with others that involve exploration, experimentation, deep engagement, and learning; and - influence. We work collaboratively with leaders in philanthropy, corporations, government, and regions to create insights, information, processes, and tools that will lead to improvements for all Americans. Our initiatives uncover and advance new and fundamentally different and better ways to improve health and well-being; ensure quality care; lower healthcare costs; and increase equity, engagement, and productivity.
