State of Colorado
Department of Health Care Policy & Financing:"This Internet site is provided as a resource for policy-makers, health care consumers, providers, and all citizens of Colorado.
As the state agency responsible for the administration of the Medicaid program, the Department of Health Care Policy and Financing faces many challenges. In a time of fiscal constraints and increasing health care access problems, the Department is finding more efficient and effective ways to provide health care for low-income Coloradans.
As one of the largest purchasers of health care in the State of Colorado, the Department's purchasing methods affect the overall health care market. The Department’s purchasing methods are designed to improve access to care and the quality of health services delivered to clients, to offer consumers choice of providers and health plans, and to encourage providers and plans to compete with one another based on price, quality, and accessibility." ******************************************************
Department of Health Care Policy, Harvard Medical School:"The goal of the Department of Health Care Policy is to serve the nation as a leading source for scientific knowledge about our health care system. As an interdisciplinary team of health care researchers, we strive to guide the development of policies for health care financing and delivery so as to improve continually the effectiveness and value of care. We do this with concern for patients, providers, health plans, and purchasers so that the delivery system can better translate the spectacular advances of medical science into the best patient care." ******************************************************

The research focuses on important and persistent health care issues that are informed by the sophisticated theory and methods that characterize university research. This strong academic foundation is combined with applied policy analyses. The Institute disseminates relevant research information to policymakers, advocates and consumers and involves these groups in ongoing research. The Institute also performs a convening function by bringing together state policymakers and administrators and representatives of the private and nonprofit sectors to discuss shared concerns. Together these strategies help to build a more integrated and effective health research and policy community." ******************************************************

The Center's connection to UnitedHealth Group provides a link to over 40 affiliated health care plans and their managers. This resource of operational knowledge, innovation, and experience gives the Center's research a real-world practicality. It also provides access to an enormous array of medical management information data reflecting a broad cross section of the population. As a result, researchers at the Center and their collaborators have unique research opportunities to take an objective look at what works and what doesn't in health care delivery." ******************************************************
