The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) today announced that it has selected 73 individuals from 27 States and the District of Columbia for its Innovation Advisors program.
A list of Innovation Advisors can be found at http://www.cms.gov/apps/media/press/factsheet.asp?Counter=4240.
The initiative, launched by the CMS Innovation Center in October 2011, will help health professionals deepen skills that will drive improvements to patient care and reduce costs. After an initial orientation phase, Innovation Advisors will work with the CMS Innovation Center to test new models of care delivery in their own organizations and communities. They will also create partnerships to find new ideas that work and share them regionally and across the United States.
