About us
We work together to promote and improve the health and safety of all Marylanders through disease prevention, access to care, quality management and community engagement. Maryland’s health care delivery system consists of public and private hospitals, nursing homes, outpatient clinics, home health care services, hospices, providers, and health educators, among others. As a public health department, our goal is to improve the health status of every Maryland resident and to ensure access to quality health care. We are responsible for helping each person live a life free from the threat of communicable diseases, tainted foods, and dangerous products. To assist in our mission, we regulate health care providers, facilities, and organizations, and manage direct services to patients where appropriate.

#ICYMI Gov. Wes Moore announced historic decreases in fatal overdoses in Maryland last year. Preliminary data show there were 1,553 fatal overdoses in Maryland in 2024, down substantially from the 2,511 reported in 2023. “The decrease in fatal overdoses that we’re seeing in Maryland is historic, and it’s proof that our investments in behavioral health and substance use care and the incredible efforts of people all around our state are paying off,” said Governor Moore. “However, we still have work to do. We are still losing far too many of our loved ones and neighbors to preventable overdoses, and we will not let up in our efforts to meet people where they are and make connections to care.” Review this data and more on Maryland's Overdose Data Dashboard: https://lnkd.in/euVnbMAk Learn more: https://lnkd.in/e8Cg7xsY
