Healthcare Innovation
The Office of Health Strategy advances health innovation and strategy through the ongoing work of the State Innovation Model (SIM) program, a Center for Medicare & Medicaid Innovation (CMMI) initiative to support the development and implementation of state-led, multi-payer healthcare payment and service delivery model reforms that will promote healthier people, better care, and smarter spending in participating states.
Our Vision
To establish a whole-person-centered healthcare system that will:
- Improve Population Health: reduce the statewide rates of diabetes, obesity, and tobacco use,
- Improve Health Care Outcomes: improve performance on key quality measures, including preventative care and care experience,
- Promote Health Equity: close the health disparity gap between the highest and lowest achieving populations for key quality measures,
- Reduce Healthcare Costs: achieve a 1-2% reduction in the annual rate of healthcare growth.
