Innovation Submission Criteria
To be considered for collaboration with Hartford HealthCare’s Innovation team, proposals must demonstrate clear alignment with our
strategic priorities
. Each idea should directly support one or more of the following pillars:
Access
Ensure more people can get the care they need—when, where, and how they need it.
Your solution should:
Expand patient access to care, particularly in underserved or remote areas
Support virtual health or remote monitoring to keep patients healthy at home
Improve clinical workflow to reduce wait times and streamline care delivery
Facilitate faster decision-making to avoid delays in treatment
Affordability
Help make healthcare more cost-effective without sacrificing quality.
Your solution should:
Contribute to operational efficiency and reduce resource waste
Enable cost mitigation strategies for both patients and the system
Leverage automation or decision support to lower labor-intensive tasks
Diversify revenue streams to reduce financial dependency on traditional services
Health Equity
Promote fair and inclusive healthcare for all patients, regardless of background.
Your solution should:
Address gaps in healthcare access and outcomes across different populations
Support digital diagnostics or virtual health tools that overcome systemic barriers
Include design considerations for underserved or marginalized communities
Improve access to precision medicine tailored to unique patient needs
Excellence (Quality/Safety)
Deliver high-quality care and safer patient experiences.
Your solution should:
Improve clinical decision-making through AI or data-informed tools
Enhance patient and caregiver experience through intuitive, effective design
Support digital therapeutics or early diagnostic innovations
Reduce preventable errors, readmissions, or complications through better care coordination
