Utah

In 2021, the Utah Governor hired the state’s first Chief Innovation Officer (CINO) to implement responsive solutions which keep government responsible and modernized aligned with the Governor’s One Utah Roadmap. For example, the CINO is leading the creation of the single sign-on access to digital government for Utah constituents and businesses per a 2020 Utah law, and transform Utah’s health care system via the new Utah Sustainable Health Collaborative, launched by the Governor in 2021, that will convene partners, community-based organizations, and providers to save costs, pilot innovations, and improve quality of care statewide.
