Realizing North Carolina’s comprehensive vision for Medicaid transformation requires strengthening the state’s primary care infrastructure. This can be done by building upon the value-based care incentives in the Advanced Medical Home model, strengthening payor data, aligning quality measures, easing administrative burdens, investing in primary care and its workforce pipeline, and ensuring payment models adequately support serving Medicaid expansion and the growing number of Medicaid health plans.
实现北卡罗来纳州医疗补助转型的全面愿景需要加强该州的初级医疗基础设施。要做到这一点，可以在 "高级医疗之家"（Advanced Medical Home）模式中基于价值的医疗激励措施的基础上，加强支付方数据，统一质量衡量标准，减轻行政负担，投资于初级医疗及其劳动力队伍，并确保支付模式能够充分支持医疗补助的扩展和医疗补助医疗计划数量的增长。

Cardiovascular disease mortality is increasing in North Carolina with persistent inequality by race, income, and location. Artificial intelligence (AI) can repurpose the widely available electrocardiogram (ECG) for enhanced assessment of cardiac dysfunction. By identifying accelerated cardiac aging from the ECG, AI offers novel insights into risk assessment and prevention.

The Stroke Advisory Council and its partners created the NC Stroke System of Care, an online repository of strategies and resources, in efforts to prevent rising rates of stroke in our state and to steer our work. A stroke registry was developed to gain a more comprehensive view of stroke in the state and identify gaps in care and health inequities.

Routine HPV vaccination can prevent six cancers. Best practices for achieving high adolescent HPV vaccination coverage include automatically scheduled appointments, presumptive provider recommendations, standing orders, feedback on vaccination rates, and incentives. Promising practices include starting HPV vaccine recommendations and vaccine registry forecasting at age 9 and school entry requirements.

Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) have a negative impact on people across the lifespan, including poorer health outcomes. Data have indicated that 60% of North Carolina adults have experienced at least one ACE, while concurrently heart disease is the leading cause of death. There is a need to study the linkages between the two, and researchers and leaders should take an upstream approach to doing so.

Cancer is the second leading cause of death in North Carolina and approximately half of cancers are diagnosed in older adults (≥ 65 years). Cancer clinical trials in older adults are limited and there is a lack of evidence on optimal care strategies in this population. We highlight how big data can fill in gaps in geriatric oncology research.
