UM Institute for Health Computing Receives State Funds

May 8, 2024    |   By Emily Bleiweis

Maryland’s 2024 legislative session came to a close in April, and with it came millions of dollars of dedicated funds investing in advancing network medicine, artificial intelligence, and machine learning that will help improve future health outcomes in Maryland. 

The funds, given to the University of Maryland Strategic Partnership: MPowering the State ( MPower ) — a collaboration between the University of Maryland, Baltimore (UMB) and the University of Maryland, College Park (UMCP) — will be used exclusively on the University of Maryland Institute for Health Computing (UM-IHC) initiative. Launched in November 2022, UM-IHC leverages technological advances to create a premier learning health care system that evaluates both de-identified and secure digitized medical health data to improve outcomes for patients across Maryland.    

UMB President Bruce E. Jarrell, MD, FACS , and UMCP President Darryll Pines, PhD, MS, were in attendance in Annapolis with hundreds of others who flocked to the Maryland State House to celebrate the signing of nearly 300 bills into law.  

“[This bill and funding] give us a great opportunity to work together as two universities and the medical system to use our power in all three institutions to make something good happen in health care,” Jarrell said after the signing.  

Senate Bill 0376, which was signed into law by Gov. Wes Moore on April 25, 2024, requires the governor to include in the budget $1.5 million in Fiscal Year 2026, $3 million in FY 2027, $4.5 million in FY 2028, and $6 million in FY 2029 and after.  

UM-IHC is expected to energize research in the life sciences including applied artificial intelligence, bioinformatics, immersive visualization, real-world evidence and adaptive clinical trials, population health, and therapeutic drug discovery. While driving technological advancement, the goal is to also provide critical mass to Maryland’s technology economy.  

“This is an opportunity to double down on our MPowering the State initiative that was codified in Senate Bill 1052 several years ago,” Pines said. “This is probably the biggest endeavor that will help the citizens of the state of Maryland in terms of their personalized health related to being able to mine medical records and use this enabling technology of AI to help citizens of the state of Maryland.”

This is a chance for these institutions to look at medical records and “really help advance health care diagnosis and prognosis for the future,” Pines added.

Help, I Need Dialysis! How to have a good future with kidney disease

The Solution: MEI Executive Director Dori Schatell worked with Australian nephrologist Dr. John Agar to develop a dialysis lifestyle "bible" to help patients understand what to expect from dialysis.

How to Have a Good Future with Kidney Disease

The Challenge: Improve dialysis modality education.

The Solution: MEI developed an up-to-the-minute toolkit with six decks of CKD education slides, speaker's notes, learning objectives, quizzes, handouts, and even a how-to guide--and offered it to the renal community for free. Eligible for MIPPA billing and reviewed by multidisciplinary experts, the slide decks use a minimum of words, relying largely on images to convey messages to patients who may be uremic, in denial, and/or traumatized by the diagnosis. The slides are not copyrighted, so they can be adapted or translated as needed. MEI also recorded the slides as videos for free, online CKD classes for patients.

VA Virtual CKD Clinic

The Challenge: Help Veterans protect their kidney function and slow CKD.

The Solution: MEI won a U.S. Veteran's Administration Innovation Award to develop a CKD navigator website. Set up as a "virtual CKD clinic," the 508 compliant site helps veterans understand what kidneys do, symptoms of kidney failure, medications, laboratory tests, nutrition, how social services can help, and treatment options in the event of kidney failure. The site was informed by usability testing with veterans and launches in Summer 2013.

Core Curriculum for the Dialysis Technician

The Challenge: Standardize patient-centered technician training.

The Solution: Amgen approached MEI to develop a training manual as a value-added benefit for its customers. The Core Curriculum for the Dialysis Technician is the premier PCT training manual in the industry, and Amgen's most-requested publication since the first edition in 1993. For five editions, MEI has identified authors and reviewers, and coordinated the extensive process of research, writing, design, editing, illustration, indexing, and production of this manual.

Let's Talk About...

The Challenge: Encourage patient and care team collaboration in care.

The Solution: With support from a variety of sources, MEI developed a series of 3-minute multimedia mini-movies in English and Spanish, designed to be shown to in-center dialysis patients during treatment to start a conversation with the care team. We deliberately chose challenging topics: fluid adherence, replacing a hemodialysis catheter with a fistula, getting enough dialysis, and treatment options. We'd like to do more of these! Contact us to sponsor one or more mini-movies.

Fistula First Web Content & Graphics

The Challenge: Help frightened patients choose a fistula for dialysis access.

The Solution: MEI developed a map image and chose friendly, multicultural photos to help patients navigate through the steps of understanding the types of hemodialysis vascular access, getting a fistula placed, performing aftercare, monitoring, and use. MEI also designed a process to evaluate educational materials produced by a variety of groups to ensure that they were accurate, on message, and easy to read. Materials vetted by this process were organized in logical categories for patients on this site.

Vaccination Fact Sheet for Dialysis Patients

The Challenge: Develop multicultural educational products for a research study.

The Solution: MEI consulted on an multi-center Amgen study to improve dialysis outcomes in New York City. We surveyed the participating clinics, identified the most prevalent languages, and developed easy-to-read materials for vaccination and vascular access topics with a colorful, urban look in each language. These materials are available for download from our Life Options website.

MATCH-D (Method to Assess Treatment Choices for Home Dialysis)

The Challenge: Ensure patient awareness of home dialysis (PD and home HD).

The Solution: MEI advocated successfully with CMS to include the right for patients to learn about all of their dialysis options and where to get them in the Conditions for Coverage for Dialysis Facilities, built a database of all clinics that offered these therapies—and developed a tool to help clinic staff assess patients, address barriers, identify candidates, and document their efforts in patients' charts. The MATCH-D has been adopted by dialysis providers across the US, both large and small, and has been adapted for use by Australia.
