The AHEAD Model is a pioneer initiative aiming to reshape state and regional health systems through a Total Cost of Care (TCOC) approach. The Making Care Primary (MCP) Model, a 10.5-year multi-payer initiative, builds upon the successes of previous models like Comprehensive Primary Care (CPC), CPC+, and Primary Care First (PCF), as well as the Maryland Primary Care Program (MDPCP). MCP elevates primary care services and sets the stage for a high-performing health system.

Diabetes, the eighth leading cause of death in the United States (US), is characterized by elevated blood sugar levels disrupting the body's ability to produce or effectively use insulin. This growing chronic condition extends beyond individual health, posing threats to diverse populations across socioeconomic landscapes.

In today's rapidly evolving world, there has been a shift in healthcare priorities to focus on the nonmedical factors that impact individuals, which include environmental and social risk factors.

From the air we breathe to the water we drink, the environment plays a pivotal role in shaping our well-being. At the intersection of these complex dynamics where public health and environmental health converge, there is an opportunity for technology and analytics to pave a path for a healthier biological and environmental future.

The impacts of climate change on different sectors of society are interrelated. Drought can harm food production and human health through water scarcity, famine, malnutrition, and increased health risks. Flooding can spread diseases and damage ecosystems and infrastructure by contaminating water sources, creating a breeding ground for disease-carrying insects and disrupting natural environments. These interconnected environmental factors underscore the urgent need for a coordinated response to mitigate its effects on our population and planet.

Over the past three years, the Gravity Project team has convened over 3,000 individuals (and counting) to develop consensus-based data standards to improve how we use and share information on SDOH. These data standards encompass both the language and words that give meaning to this information (i.e., Gravity Terminology) and the technical specifications that allow for the seamless electronic exchange of this information across disparate systems (i.e., Gravity FHIR Implementation Guide).
