CMS announces QualTech event focusing on innovative technology to improve health outcomes
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services yesterday announced the launch of QualTech, a new event created to identify innovative technology that improves health outcomes. CMS is seeking participants from U.S-based teams, academic institutions, nonprofit organizations, private sector companies, industry associations and other stakeholders to propose technology solutions in advance of the event. Applicants must align proposal submissions to one of four priority opportunity areas: using artificial intelligence to protect patients and strengthen healthcare quality; leveraging AI to increase annual wellness visits in Medicare; proposing a next-generation digital quality measure calculator; and supporting the development of a national quality hospital dashboard. CMS will select finalists to present at QualTech, which will be held at CMS headquarters, to CMS and Center for Clinical Standards and Quality leadership and other attendees. CMS said it may continue engagement with select organizations following the event, which could include future demonstrations, pilots, collaboration discussions and a potential role in the 2027 CMS Quality Conference. Applications must be uploaded to the QualTech submission link by Sept. 4, 2026.
