Subject: Submit Your Idea

Have you submitted your idea to the Innovation Center yet?

Last week, we launched an exciting new web tool at www.innovations.cms.gov that allows you to help shape the future of the Medicare, Medicaid, and CHIP programs. We are seeking your ideas, both to help build the Innovation Center and to help identify innovative ideas about how care can be delivered and paid for in ways that will save

money while improving health and healthcare.

The submitted ideas will be reviewed by the Innovation Center staff. The most promising ideas will be incorporated into the

payment and care delivery models tested by the Innovation Center.

Collecting input is a critical step in the Innovation Center’s efforts. The Innovation Center wants to hear about your work, and looks forward to developing partners

across the country to transform the healthcare delivery system to deliver better healthcare and better health at lower costs for Medicare, Medicaid, and CHIP beneficiaries.

The new website, www.innovations.cms.gov, is an important avenue to collect your input. We hope that you take some time to visit the website and share your experiences.

Sincerely, J. Gilfillan, MD Acting Director Innovation Center Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services
