The Future of Health Conference 2019 will focus on quality in healthcare. Quality of care is the extent to which healthcare services provided to patients improves desired health outcomes. Why the focus on quality in healthcare, and why now? There needs to be a greater effort to improve quality in healthcare in order to increase confidence in the healthcare sector, with the use of quality measures to access service delivery. Quality and safety of health care is a goal that will be achieved through education, knowledge sharing, external evaluation, and supporting health systems in Nigeria. The objective of The Future of Health Conference 2019 will centre around connecting people through robust health care networks, to bring to the forefront the need to integrate quality at all levels of healthcare access and delivery. We want to encourage goal-oriented conversations among health care professionals which will lead to the development of national guidelines to measure quality health care in Nigeria.
