MN Community Measurement

❗In case you missed –

MNCM, in partnership with the Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS), recently released the 2024 Disparities by Insurance Type Report.

🔍 The report examines differences in health care quality outcomes between Minnesotans enrolled in Minnesota Health Care Programs (MHCP) and those covered by other purchasers, such as commercial insurance and Medicare. It also tracks trends over time and provides a closer look at MHCP results by race and ethnicity.

Understanding where disparities exist is a critical step toward improving health outcomes for all Minnesotans.

🙏 Thank you to DHS for their continued partnership and commitment to advancing health equity through transparent, data-driven reporting!

As we begin the year, MNCM is launching a new leadership blog series — Aligning for Impact: Minnesota’s Health Data Evolution — focused on how partners across the state are working together to strengthen Minnesota’s health data ecosystem.

In the first article of the series, MNCM leadership shares how the Board’s January action to initiate an Executive Leadership Council, in partnership with the Minnesota EHR Consortium and Koble, will help explore a cooperative statewide approach to addressing fragmented health data infrastructure.
