The website features a database of innovations developed and implemented by Maryland’s consumers, hospitals, clinicians, insurance plans and community groups working together to address critical healthcare challenges.
The innovations are separated into three categories:
• Clinical innovations: These include healthcare and community strategies that prevent illness and complications and reduce healthcare costs through novel approaches to supporting patients.
• Financial mechanisms: These include approaches to paying for care that reward providers for keeping their patients healthier and provide incentives for wellness strategies that reduce the need for expensive acute-care services.
• Integrated programs: These include programs that combine clinical innovations with supportive financing mechanisms to meet the goals of the “Triple Aim” — improvement of population health, enhancement of patient care and reduction of cost.
