The Maryland Health Care Commission (MHCC) https://mhcc.maryland.gov seeks proposals for “Telehealth Round Six-Telehealth for Medication Management and Reconciliation.” The MHCC will fund a single application on a competitive basis over an 18 month period to implement and test a telehealth use case.
The goal is to optimize medication management and reconciliation to improve care coordination via a certified EHR to be integrated with the “Chesapeake Regional Information System for our Patients” (CRISP).
The funding will be used to advance pharmacist support to aid healthcare professionals in managing therapeutic regimens for their patients, facilitate medication compliance/adherence for patients, and provide educational information to patients and their caregivers on medications. The grant also aims to test the availability of a reconciled medication list to be made available to care teams via CRISP.
MHCC is providing a total of $150,000 requiring a 1:1 financial match rate. A Letter of Intent is due by December 11, 2017 via email to angela.evatt@maryland.gov with grant applications due January 15, 2018.
