Overview

Mission

To promote greater transparency, accountability, and equity in Maryland's health care system as the state undergoes a transition in health care financing and delivery.

What it reported doing in 2025

Educating and advocating the interests of Maryland healthcare consumers before the Maryland general assembly and executive branch agencies. This education and advocacy enables legislators and administrators to better develop health related laws and regulations affecting the general public.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 100% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 99% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
