TMF Health Quality Institute
Improving Lives by Improving the Quality of Health Care TMF Health Quality Institute focuses on promoting quality health care through contracts with federal, state and local governments, as well as private organizations. For more than 50 years, TMF has helped health care providers and practitioners in a variety of settings improve care for their patients. TMF was chartered in 1971 as a private, nonprofit organization of licensed physicians (MDs and DOs) to lead quality improvement and medical review efforts in Texas. Originally known as the Texas Medical Foundation, the company changed its name to TMF Health Quality Institute in 2005 to reflect the expansion of its work throughout the nation. In 2011, TMF acquired C2C Innovative Solutions, Inc., a Medicare Qualified Independent Contractor with offices in Florida and employees throughout the nation. This acquisition expanded TMF’s scope of services and increased our presence in the government contracting market. C2C specializes in providing health care sector support and administrative services in the handling of Medicare second-level appeals. In 2013, TMF established the TMF Foundation in support of TMF’s vision to improve lives by improving the quality of health care. The TMF Foundation provides resources and educational support to organizations focused on the health of Texas residents.
