Multiple strategies for quality improvement and patient safety—money alone is not the answer, nor is trust. Conclusions of the 6th EQuiP Invitational conference April 2011

Abstract On 7–9 April 2011 the 6th EQuiP Invitational Conference took place in Copenhagen. Key note lectures were delivered by Professor Frede Olesen (Denmark), Professor Andreas Christian Soennichsen (Austria), Professor Martin Roland (UK) and Professor Richard Roberts (US), and a key note panel discussion was held on the pros and cons of pay-for-performance led by Doctors Iona Heath (UK) and José Braspenning (The Netherlands). In addition, there were 9 workshops and 23 oral presentations. Videos of many presentations as well as PowerPoint and other materials can be found at EQuiP's website: http://www.equip.ch.
