2025 UMMC Strategic Plan and 2021 Summary

UMMC 2025 is the product of a collaborative and comprehensive journey. Faculty, staff and leaders from all UMMC mission areas and Trustees of the Mississippi Institutions of Higher Learning lent their energy and talent to define this blueprint that will guide our strategic priorities and investments. This plan will position us to:

• Serve more patients, more efficiently, with excellent outcomes
• Educate more physicians, nurses and health care providers to care for Mississippians
• Conduct more research to find cures and save lives

The 2021 Summary

During the strategic planning process, hundreds of ideas were generated and discussed. Many of those will be pursued at individual department- and hospital-unit levels. UMMC 2025 establishes five overarching strategies on which we will focus over the next five years. These institutional strategies will not change over the course of the five-year period.

Additionally, each calendar year we will develop specific, measurable goals within each of the strategies. By the end of the year, new goals that build on successes of the current year will be established to continue progress on the five strategies in the coming year. The goals listed below are for calendar year 2021.
