What is added in the Quadruple Aim?

• A. Provider well being (reduce burnout)
• B. Patient safety
• C. Improved revenue
• D. Expanded access

Answer: (A)

The Quadruple Aim adds provider well-being to the original three aims (improving patient experience, improving population health, and reducing per‑capita costs). Focusing on the health and resilience of clinicians and care teams is essential because burnout and disengagement undermine safety, quality, and sustainability of care. When providers are supported, communication improves, burnout decreases, and teams can deliver better patient experiences and outcomes, while also managing costs more effectively. While patient safety, expanded access, and revenue are important, the explicit addition in the Quadruple Aim is the well-being of those delivering care.
