The Maryland Health Services Cost Review Commission (HSCRC) is an independent state agency responsible for regulating the quality and cost of hospital services to ensure all Marylanders have access to high value healthcare. HSCRC's vision is to enhance the quality of health care and patient experience, improve population health and health outcomes, and reduce the total cost of care for Marylanders. HSCRC plays a key role in managing Maryland's Total Cost of Care Model agreement with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid services. Under the Model, HSCRC is responsible for creating innovative programs to encourage hospitals to partner with non-hospital providers to improve health care cost and quality and partner with community organizations to improve population health.
