Governor Announces $34.7 Million Investment in
University of Toledo Medical Center
Quality Initiative
|
|
(COLUMBUS, Ohio)—Ohio
Governor Mike DeWine today announced the Centers for Medicare and
Medicaid Services have authorized a new quality initiative which
will provide $34.7 million in state and federal funds at the
University of Toledo Medical Center (UTMC) to enhance patient care
and improve patient outcomes.
“UTMC is a vital partner in improving the overall health and
well-being of those living in northwest Ohio and plays a critical
role in advancing quality care,” said Governor DeWine. “This quality
initiative will advance care and lead to healthier Ohioans.”
Governor DeWine worked members of the northwest Ohio General
Assembly delegation, including Senator Theresa Gavarone,
Representative Derek Merrin, Representative Lisa Sobecki, and
Representative Michael Sheehy, to secure authorization for this
program which in turn paves the way for the federal approval. U.S.
Congresswoman Marcy Kaptur helped secure the final approval by CMS.
Working with the Ohio Department of Medicaid, UTMC’s initiative will
strengthen and expand programs to reduce preterm birth and infant
mortality rates; enhance illness prevention and detection through
increased patient education and screening; integrate behavioral and
physical healthcare; and better manage chronic conditions. |
