The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), an international organization comprised of 37 member countries, is a dynamic international incubator for new ideas, best-practice sharing, and advice on public policies and international standard setting. 

Founded in 1961, OECD collaborates on key global issues at national, regional and local levels.  For example the OECD Principles on Artificial Intelligence are the first intergovernmental standard on AI and were adopted by all OECD member countries in May 2019.  

Most recently in response to COVID-19, the OECD released an official policy response based on a compilation of data, analysis and recommendations. The goal of policy responses are to address the emerging health, economic and societal crisis, facilitate co-ordination, and contribute to the necessary global action when confronting this enormous collective challenge. 

Medical Home Network was featured in "Using artificial intelligence to help combat COVID-19" policy paper as part of OECD's Tackling Coronavirus (COVID-19): Contributing to a Global Effort initiative. 

The paper highlights Medical Home Network's use of AI in combination with social determinants of health and past clinical activity to identify Medicaid patients most at risk from #COVID19
