About
The Center for Health Market Innovations (CHMI) identifies, analyzes and connects programs working to improve health and financial protection for the poor. Health Market Innovations are programs and policies—implemented by governments, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), social entrepreneurs or private companies—that have the potential to improve the way health markets operate. These programs and policies harness or improve transactions that occur in the health care marketplace to promote better health and financial protection for the poor.
CHMI is a community-managed resource that you can download, embed and adapt, citing this database as a resource.
